Objective:
To examine the relationship between insomnia and multidimensional frailty among community-dwelling older adults.
Method:
We conducted a comprehensive search in the Pubmed, Web of Science, and Embase databases up to May 15, 2024. The included cross-sectional studies were using the Joanna Briggs Institute's Evidence-Based Health Care Center's checklist for analytical cross-sectional studies; the longitudinal study used the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for risk of bias assessment.
Results:
Out of 1571 studies, 14 were selected. The results indicate a positive relationship between insomnia and cognitive frailty, social frailty, and psychological frailty in community-dwelling older adults. However, the relationship between insomnia and total or physical frailty is unclear.
Conclusion:
This study made an association between insomnia and cognitive frailty, social frailty, and psychological frailty in community-dwelling older adults. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality cohort studies are required to verify the above conclusion.
