Depression and frailty in older adults: A population-based cohort study.
<h4>Background</h4>Studies have shown an association between depression and frailty, even though the literature has not reached a consensus regarding how these syndromes interact. Although prospective cohort studies on this topic are still scarce, they could contribute to understanding t...

The sample was representative of the community-dwelling older adults living in São Paulo, and it is composed of non-frail men and women aged 60 years and older without cognitive decline.

Multiple analysis was carried out through Poisson regression with robust variance estimation.<h4>Results</h4>The initial sample (n = 1,109) presented a mean age of 72 years (from 60 to 96) and 61.1% were women. The final sample was composed of 830 individuals, and the mean follow-up time in the study was 3.8 years.
