The WE-RISE™ multi-domain intervention: a feasibility study for the potential reversal of cognitive frailty in Malaysian older persons of lower socioeconomic status.
Abstract
Cognitive frailty (CF) is an emerging concern among older persons, particularly within lower socioeconomic statuses (SES) populations. Currently, there is limited evidence on the potential reversibility of CF through multi-domain interventions within this demographic. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the WE-RISE™ multi-domain intervention in addressing the potential reversibility of CF among community-dwelling older persons of lower SES, the intervention effects on multiple health dimensions, and to determine if WE-RISE™ is of low cost.

Research summary
The paper addresses cognitive frailty, which is a significant concern in the aging population, particularly among those of lower socioeconomic status. While it explores a multi-domain intervention aimed at potentially reversing cognitive frailty, it does not directly tackle the root causes of aging or lifespan extension. The findings may contribute to understanding interventions for cognitive health in older adults, but the impact is limited as it focuses on a specific demographic and does not present groundbreaking advancements in the broader field of longevity research.
