Association between aging-related biomarkers and longitudinal trajectories of intrinsic capacity in older adults.

ABSTRACT: Intrinsic capacity (IC), the composite of physical and mental capacities, declines with age at different rates and patterns between individuals. We aimed to investigate the association between longitudinal IC trajectories and plasma biomarkers of two hallmarks of aging-chronic inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction-in older adults. From the Multidomain Alzheimer Preventive Trial (MAPT), we included 1271 community-dwelling older people (mean [SD] age = 76.0 [4.3] years) with IC data over four years. Group-based multi-trajectory modeling was performed to identify clusters of the participants with similar longitudinal patterns across four IC domains: cognition, locomotion, psychology, and vitality. Five IC multi-trajectory groups were determined: low in all domains (8.4%), low locomotion
