Paper

Abstract

Inflammaging and physical performance were investigated in older adults before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Research summary

The paper investigates the relationship between long-term physical activity and its effects on inflammaging in older adults, which is relevant to understanding the biological processes of aging and potential interventions to mitigate age-related decline. However, while it addresses an important aspect of aging, the findings appear to be more of a solid contribution rather than a groundbreaking advance in the field, thus warranting a lower impact score.
