Background: Prehabilitation may help older adults recover after surgery, yet adherence has been variable. We assessed the feasibility of a multi-component prehabilitation program.
Methods: This single-arm trial was conducted at an academic medical center to test the feasibility of an individualized prehabilitation program before major surgery.

Introduction: Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion (LLIF) is based on a less-invasive access corridor through the retroperitoneum and psoas muscle, though concerns persist over postoperative weakness and neuropathy on the surgical side. This study investigates if the trans-psoas LLIF approach is associated with long-term changes in psoas morphology, hip flexor (HF) weakness, and lower extremity dysesthesia.
Methods: The authors retrospectively reviewed all LLIF cases at a single institution from January 2016 to June 2024.

Introduction: Frailty in older adults impairs Activities of Daily Living (ADL). While exercise interventions improve factors like muscle strength and physical function, their direct impact on ADL ability is inconsistent. This review aims to assess the effectiveness of exercise on ADL ability, identify the most beneficial interventions, and explore mediators.
