population aging has led to an increased burden of frailty as an emerging global health issue, and variables for its quantification in patients with infective endocarditis (IE) are lacking in current surgical risks scores. The 5-item modified frailty index (mFI-5) score has shown to be ...
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) primarily affects older individuals with diminished physiological reserves. The Modified 5-Item Frailty Index (mFI-
The modified 5-item frailty index is a relatively new tool to assess the post-operative complication risks. In urology, there is limited literature on the impact of frailty on percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) outcomes. We aimed to compare the predictive value of the modified 5-item frailty in...
Frailty, linked to postoperative complications, has not been studied in hepatic ablation patients. This study evaluates the predictive value of the modified frailty index (mFI-5) for mortality, readmissions, complications, redo procedures, and discharges.Methods:We utilized the National Surgical Quality...
The modified 5-item (mFI-5) and 11-item frailty index (mFI-11) are the most commonly cited indices in spine surgery and have been shown to have high predictive value for postoperative complication rates in patients undergoing spinal procedures, especially in the elderly [5], [6], [7],9...
Methods Genetic variants associated with the frailty index (FI) were obtained from a large genome‐wide association study (GWAS). Summary‐level data for stroke and AD were adopted from the corresponding large GWAS...
To construct a frailty index from next-of-kin information of the last year of life of community-dwelling 50 years old or older adults and test its association with health services utilization. Methods. Cross-sectional analysis from next-of-kin data available from the last wave of the Mexican ...

Objectives The 10-item Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) is a self-administered questionnaire for dysphagia screening, with each item scored from 0 to 4. We assessed the associations among the EAT- 10 score, nutritional status and activities of daily living (ADL) in elderly individuals requiring ...
[1.7–4.3]). While maintaining the simplicity of use of the GRADE score, by adding the very simple four-item IADL scoring to it (producing the GRADE-surgery score) we were able to improve its predictive value (C-index = 0.81). The GRADE-surgery score remains easy to perform in daily ...
