Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on geriatrics, with a particular emphasis on dementia, frailty, and well-being in older adults. It covers topics such as nursing education for dementia and delirium care, the management of chronic conditions like kidney disease in elderly patients with dementia, and community-based approaches to frailty prevention. The journal also explores the concept of 'third age' well-being, considering social participation and life satisfaction, and examines the relationship between frailty awareness and actual frailty status in community-dwelling older adults. Research on sarcopenia and muscle health promotion for healthy longevity is also featured, alongside studies on cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease treatments.
