Association between longitudinal trajectories of cognitive functioning and all-cause mortality among middle-aged and older adults in South Korea: Exploring the mediating role of oral health-related quality of life

Longitudinal association between social frailty and poor oral health-related quality of life among middle-aged and older adults: Exploring the mediating role of cognitive function using a nationally representative cohort in the Republic of Korea.

Social frailty was negatively associated with subsequent OHRQoL among middle-aged and older adults and comprehensive interventions aimed at enhancing social engagement and cognitive function may be essential for the improvement of oral health outcomes.

Mediating role of depressive symptoms in the association between trajectories of instrumental activities of daily living and all-cause mortality in middle-aged or older adults: a cohort study in South Korea.

This longitudinal mediation analysis revealed that individuals experiencing an increasing trajectory of IADL limitations exhibited a higher risk of all-cause mortality, with depressive symptoms partially accounting for this association.

Longitudinal trajectories of social frailty and the risk of all-cause mortality among older adults in South Korea: Exploration of the mediating role of cognitive functioning.

BACKGROUND Mounting evidence indicates that social frailty leads to adverse health outcomes in older adults. However, longitudinal trajectories of social frailty and their relationship with all-cause mortality have not been fully investigated. We analyzed the association between social frailty trajectories and all-caus...
