TL;DR

Intrinsic capacity is inversely associated with falls in older adults, with locomotion, psychological, and sensory functions serving as important protective domains and fall prevention strategies should emphasize multidimensional assessment and integrated interventions.

Association Between Edentulism and Postural Stability Among Middle-Aged and Older Adults: A Nationwide Cross-Sectional Study.

BACKGROUND Maintaining postural stability is crucial for healthy aging, and impaired balance increases the risk of falls and functional decline. Edentulism is common among older adults and may influence neuromuscular coordination and systemic health, yet its association with balance ability remains underexplored. MET...
