In this sample, there was a significant difference in comorbidity count between frail and non-frail individuals ( p < 0.001 for both frailty metrics), while a borderline significant difference was observed for age ( p = 0.057 for both indexes) and no difference for BMI ( p = 0.17 for mFI-11 and p = 0.61 for mFI-5).
