Abstract Synopsis

  • The review summarizes evidence on community-based interventions aimed at reducing vulnerabilities such as frailty, social isolation, loneliness, and poverty among older adults, especially highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • It analyzed 27 systematic reviews, finding that interventions like protein supplementation combined with physical activity can improve frailty and physical strength, while physical activity alone may prevent frailty and enhance social functioning, with some digital interventions also showing promise.
  • The review emphasizes the importance of multi-component strategies tailored to address the specific vulnerabilities of older adults, supported by evidence from various countries, including low- and middle-income regions.
