In older patients with chronic heart failure, a significant bidirectional relationship exists between social frailty and mild cognitive impairment.
There is a significant bidirectional relationship between social frailty and mild cognitive impairment in older patients with chronic heart failure, suggesting that interventions targeting either condition may yield mutually beneficial effects.

BACKGROUND: Although both social frailty (SF) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are common comorbidities in older patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and they interact with each other, their relationship remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to explore the bidirectional relationship between SF and MCI in older patients with CHF. METHODS: Using the convenience sampling method, 288 older patients with CHF were recruited from China from November 2022 to April 2024 (T RESULTS: SF and MCI coexisted in 79 (27.4 %) patients at T CONCLUSIONS: There was a significant bidirectional relationship between SF and MCI. Interventions targeting either SF or MCI may have mutually beneficial effects.
