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.
