Frailty, grip strength, blood-based biomarkers of neuropathology, and incident dementia: a 17-year longitudinal population study
This study strengthens evidence that frailty is a risk factor for dementia in mid- to late-life. It also suggests that it is of considerable importance to assess frailty and grip strength in individuals "at risk" of cognitive decline.
