By Vijay Kumar MalesuAug 14 2023Reviewed by Benedette Cuffari, M.Sc. In a recent study published in Frontiers in Medicine, researchers explore the interplay between late life depression and aging.
Coexisting neurodegenerative processes enhance these phenotypes and are marked by cognitive issues, decreased processing speed, impaired speech, abnormal gait, and signs of dwindling cognitive reserves. The importance of resilience In psychosocial studies, resilience refers to one's ability to sustain or regain well-being amidst adversity. Physical resilience, though lacking a unanimous definition, often denotes resistance or recovery from functional decline after health challenges. Incorporated into models of successful aging, resilient individuals persevere through hardships, in addition to retaining functional stability and a sense of well-being.
Aging experts argue that intrinsic capacity aligns with "Body Functions" in the ICF. The definition of intrinsic capacity often encompasses cognition, locomotion, sensory integrity, vitality, and psychological capacity. Extensive research on depression demonstrates the strong link between LLD, aspects of the ICF model, and intrinsic capacity measurements.
