Frailty and 12-month mortality among older adults with type 2 diabetes in nursing homes: A longitudinal study
Frailty measured by the FI showed a tendency to be associated with short-term mortality among older adults with type T2DM living in nursing homes. These findings underscore the need for larger studies to further assess the prognostic utility of the FI in informing care planning and clinical management in this vulnerable population.
