This study found that the concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, and O-3 may be dose-dependently associated with frailty, with each 1 μg/m3 increase of PM2.5 and PM10 significantly increasing the risk of frailty.
This study aims to identify the association between the concentration of particulate matter < 2.5 mu m (PM2.5), < 10 mu m (PM10), and ozone (O-3) and frailty. The Korean Frailty Scale (KFS, 0-6 points) assessing physical, psychological, and social frailty, was applied to 2912 community-dwelling older adults between April 2016 and December 2017. Daily average concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, and O-3 (2015-2017) were obtained and matched with the residential areas. The frailty risk associated with exposure to PM2.5, PM10, and O-3 was evaluated using multiple logistic regression after adjusting for age, sex, BMI, lifestyle, socioeconomic status, and comorbidity. Participants were categorized into robust (0 points, 28.7%), pre-frail (1-2 points, 50.1%), and frail (& GE;3 points, 21.2%) groups. Each 1 mu g/m(3) increase of PM2.5 and PM10 increased the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of the frail group compared to the robust group: 1.055 (1.002, 1.112) and 1.095 (1.060, 1.131), and the pre-frail group: 1.053 (1.017, 1.090) and 1.062 (1.037, 1.087), respectively. Each 1-ppb increase of O-3 increased the OR (95% CI) of the frail group: 1.041 (1.023, 1.059) and the pre-frail group: 1.005 (0.985, 1.025). PM2.5, PM10, and O-3 may be associated dose-dependently with the frailty.
