Abstract

Abstract: Rapid demographic changes with increasing percentage of old age, particularly in our country, will lead to larger number of elderly being at risk of dependent. Moreover, larger economical and medical burden will be brought for caring more and more dependent older people. Two of the most common causes of dependent are frailty and cognitive impairment. A number of studies have showed that frailty increases the risk of future cognitive decline and that cognitive impairment increases the risk of frailty. It is suggested that cognition and frailty interacted within a vicious cycle associated with ageing. This article reviews frailty, cognitive impairment, and the association between frailty and cognitive impairment. Some of the mechanisms that potentially underlying this relationship is discussed as well.

Key words: aging, frailty, cognitive impairment, dementia
