| Abstract | Background Frailty is one of the most significant issues related to human aging. Although studies have confirmed the association of mental and cognitive disorders with frailty, the association might be influenced by age, since oldest-old adults are more likely to have adverse health outcomes. Thus, this study aimed to examine independent and combined associations of mental health and cognitive function with frailty in oldest-old adults using data from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey in 2018. Methods A sum of 6,891 and 3,171 older adults aged 80 and older were included in this study when analyzing the association of depression and cognitive impairment with frailty, respectively. Frailty was measured by the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures frailty index, depression was assessed by the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and cognitive impairment was evaluated by the Chinese version of modified Mini-Mental State Examination. Independent sample t-test, Chi-square tests, and logistic regression analyses were used to examine the associations of depression and cognitive impairment with frailty. Results Older persons with depression or cognitive impairment had a higher chance of frailty. The adjusted odds ratio (OR) of frailty was 1.27 (95% CI: 1.01, 1.59, p = 0.044) in those with depression, and 1.85 (95% CI: 1.14, 3.01, p = 0.013) in those with cognitive impairment. Compared to adults who had neither depression nor cognitive impairment, those with either depression or cognitive impairment, and those with both depression and cognitive impairment had a significantly higher likelihood of frailty (adjusted OR: 1.61, 95% CI: 1.07, 2.41; and adjusted OR: 4.03, 95% CI: 2.05, 7.94). Conclusions The findings suggest that depression and cognitive impairment are associated with frailty. The concurrence of depression and cognitive impairment has an additive effect on frailty in oldest-old population. |

It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
