As the body's immunity declines with age, elderly-hospitalized patients due to COVID-19
might be at higher mortality risk. Therefore, the aim of this prospective study was to examine …

Objective To determine predictors of in-hospital mortality related to COVID-19 in older
patients. Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting and Participants Patients aged 65 years …

Background The COVID-19 pandemic has placed unprecedented strain on health-care
systems. Frailty is being used in clinical decision making for patients with COVID-19, yet the …

Introduction: Frailty, a measure of biological aging, has been linked to worse COVID-19
outcomes. However, as the mortality differs across the COVID-19 waves, it is less clear …

Background Advanced age is a well-known risk factor for poor prognosis in COVID-19.
However, few studies have specifically focused on very old inpatients with COVID-19. This …

Purpose Our aim was to quantify the mortality from COVID-19 and identify any interactions
with frailty and other demographic factors. Methods Hospitalised patients aged≥ 70 were …

In patients with COVID-19, frailty has been shown to better predict outcomes than age alone.
We investigated factors associated with mechanical ventilation (MV) during hospitalization …

Introduction: We aimed to compare clinical features of older age group and young and
middle-aged patients with COVID-19 and analyze mortality predictors. Methods …

Objectives This study investigated demographics, comorbidities, and death rate in
hospitalized patients with confirmed COVID-19. In addition, we hypothesized that functional …

Purpose To determine the differences by age-dependent categories in the clinical profile,
presentation, management, and short-term outcomes of patients with laboratory-confirmed …
