Link between tooth loss and health expectancy
BACKGROUND: We evaluated the impact of the number of teeth on health expectancy, measured as years of life without limitations in activities of daily living (ADLs) and physical function, among adults aged ≥60 years. METHODS: Data from 3384 older adults in a nationally representative longitudinal study in Singapore were analysed. Health expectancy was estimated using an inverse probability-weighted multistate life table approach with microsimulati…
Getting lonely and isolated? Transitions in social isolation profiles over time and factors associated with them among older adults

We use data pertaini…
