Multidimensional Frailty Predicts Mortality Better than Physical Frailty in Community-Dwelling Older People
Frailty is a common syndrome in older people that carries an increased risk of mortality. Two main models describe frailty, either as a loss of physical functions or as an accumulation of multiple deficits. The aim of our study was to compare the physical frailty index developed in the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS) with a multidimensional frailty tool, the Multidimensional Prognostic Index (MPI), in predicting death in community-dwelling olde…
Isonymy and the genetic structure of Sicily
The genetic structure of Sicily was analysed through the distribution of surnames of 758,793 users registered in the Italian Telephone Company, corresponding to 371 communes of the island. Estimates of the coefficient of consanguinity due to random isonymy, of Fisher's a , an indicator of abundance of surnames, and of Karlin–McGregor's v , an indicator of immigration rates, were obtained for each commune. Four different estimates of genetic dista…
