Association between pain expansion, physical activity, strength, motor problems and frailty risk in middle-aged and older European people: A cross-sectional study
Type of pain affects HGS, MD and frailty. AOP is associated with lower HGS, greater MD and frailty. People with AOP who perform PA have higher HGS and lower MD and frailty. Physical inactivity is a significant risk factor for MD and frailty in people with AOP. These findings provide insight into the relationship between pain expansion, HGS, MD and frailty in people with pain. These findings could help new hypotheses and new care programs to address prevention and intervention in people with AOP.
