Higher animal-derived dietary protein intake is associated with lower prevalence of frailty

2019

Background: It is accepted that malnutrition is involved in the pathophysiology of frailty. However, the relationship between dietary animal-derived protein (DAP) intake and the prevalence of frailty is still unclear. Using data from the FRAIL Project, we aimed to determine whether DAP consumption is associated with frailty in community-dwellers aged 65 years and older. Methods: In this cross-sectional study involving only participants older than 65 years, DAP intake was evaluated through specific items of the Mini-Nutritional Assessment (MNA). Frailty status was assessed according to the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS) model, which consists of five items (unintentional weight loss, weakn…

The multidimensional prognostic index (MPI) for the prognostic stratification of older inpatients with COVID-19: A multicenter prospective observatio…

2021

Background: The topic of prognosis in COVID-19 research may be important in adopting appropriate clinical decisions. Multidimensional prognostic index (MPI) is a frailty assessment tool widely used for stratifying prognosis in older people, but data regarding inpatients, affected by COVID-19, are not available. Objectives: To evaluate whether MPI can predict in-hospital mortality and the admission to intensive care unit (ICU) in older inpatients hospitalized for COVID-19 infection. Methods: In this longitudinal, Italian, multi-center study, older patients with COVID-19 were included. MPI was calculated using eight different domains typical of comprehensive geriatric assessment and categoriz…
