Cardiometabolic diseases, frailty, and healthcare utilization and expenditure in community-dwelling Chinese older adults
Abstract This study investigated associations between cardiometabolic diseases, frailty, and healthcare utilization and expenditure among Chinese older adults. The participants were 5204 community-dwelling adults aged at least 60 years from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Five ca...
