Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In order to maintain independence and prevent disability, it is essential to identify associated factors and reduce functional loss due to concomitant diseases. This study aimed to examine the effects of frailty, balance, and depression on the performance of activities of daily living in older adults. All participants were assessed using the Mini Mental State Test, simple FRAIL scale, Geriatric Depression Scale-Short Form, and Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (IADL).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

As the global population becomes older, the importance of preserving health, function, and quality of life is being increasingly recognized. In order to maintain independence and prevent disability, it is essential to identify associated factors and reduce functional loss due to concomitant diseases. This study aimed to examine the effects of frailty, balance, and depression on the performance of activities of daily living in older adults. All participants were assessed using the Mini Mental State Test, simple FRAIL scale, Geriatric Depression Scale-Short Form, and Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (IADL).
