ABSTRACT
Frailty is a common clinical syndrome in the elderly with decreased physiological reserve as the core, which can lead to a variety of adverse outcomes. The prevalence of frailty increases with the aging process. Smoking is one of the important risk factors for frailty development, which can increase the risk of death in elderly patients with frailty;and the current smoking may increase the risk of frailty in the future. The study on the relationship between smoking and frailty will help to control the risk factors of frailty, formulate the early prevention and intervention policies of frailty, so as to reduce the incidence of adverse frailty outcomes, reduce the hospitalization rate, mortality rate, and the socioeconomic burden.
