Abstract
Frailty is more prevalent among black versus white older Americans. We previously sought to better characterize frailty among 287 black men ages 70-81 by identifying 37 plasma metabolites associated with vigor to frailty using the scale of aging vigor in epidemiology (SAVE). Using this information, we developed a metabolite score to determine if it explained the frailty-associated higher mortality. The Human Metabolome Database classified the...
