Feasibility of reducing frailty components in older adults with Alzheimer's dementia: a randomized controlled home-based exercise trial (AD-HOMEX)

CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: AD-HOMEX seems to reduce frailty and improve frailty transition patterns. Our findings provide a further theoretical basis for designing home-based physical interventions as routine practice for older frail adults with AD.PMID:33962026 | DOI:10.1016/j.exger.2021.111390
