High level scientific results are spilling over from MPI_Age more than 2 years after the project's closure! Another very interesting article titled "HOSPITALIZED OLDER WOMEN ARE FRAILER BUT LESS OFTEN DIE IN HOSPITAL THAN MEN: A PROSPECTIVE STUDY OF OLDER HOSPITALIZED PEOPLE" published in Maturitas. Great team, great achievements.
It is widely known that women live longer than men worldwide, regardless of other demographic and clinical characteristics [1]. At the same time, women tend to experience a greater burden of multimorbidity and frailty than men, particularly in older age [2].
