Article Abstract
Frailty, characterized by reduced resilience and increased vulnerability, is a growing public health concern in aging populations. It is increasingly recognized as a dynamic and potentially reversible condition, with transitions between non-frail, pre-frail, and frail states. Recent research has advanced our understanding of frailty through improved multidimensional assessment instruments, trajectories and transitions, and recognition of key risk factors. Here, we synthesize current epidemiological evidence, emphasizing the fluctuating nature of frailty and the potential for early intervention to halt or reverse its progression. We discuss both modifiable and non-modifiable contributors and highlight intervention strategies focused on physical activity, nutrition, and social and environmental support, and aim to inform future directions from a dynamic perspective for prevention and precision management of frailty.

ObjectiveRandomized trials will ultimately determine whether stand-alone middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) is effective in preventing the recurrence of chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH). We therefore characterized in-hospital complications, length of stay, and discharge disposition among adults undergoing stand-alone MMAE for non-traumatic cSDH in the United States.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort analysis using the National Inpatient Sample (2016-2022) to identify adult patients (≥18 years) with a primary diagnosis of nontraumatic cSDH.

Introduction: Prosthetic valve endocarditis following aortic root replacement (ARR) typically necessitates redo-ARR, which involves complete graft removal, extensive aortic root dissection, and coronary reimplantation. This highly invasive procedure carries substantial surgical risk, including high operative mortality. In select high-risk patients without evidence of prosthetic graft infection, alternative surgical strategies may reduce procedural complexity and improve outcomes.

Objective: Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is thought to play an important role in regulating skeletal muscle mass and function, with its decline potentially linked to age-related frailty and sarcopenia. Given the limitations of pharmacological and nutritional interventions, exercise may serve as a potential non-pharmacological strategy to modulate IGF-1 levels. The purpose of this study is to systematically evaluates the effects of exercise interventions on serum IGF-1 levels in older adults with frailty and/or sarcopenia using a meta-analysis approach.

Sarcopenia is the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function, significantly contributing to frailty, disability, and mortality in aging populations. As life expectancy rises, sarcopenia presents a growing public health challenge, increasing healthcare costs, and diminishing quality of life. Despite its prevalence, sarcopenia is often underdiagnosed due to limitations in current diagnostic tools, including the lack of standardized cut-off values and reliance on physical performance tests.
