The Relationship Between Successful Aging and All-Cause Mortality Risk in Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Cohort Studies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This meta-analysis aimed to explore the effect of successful aging (SA) on all-cause mortality risk in older people to provide a theoretical basis for promoting SA.

Methods

PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, CNKI, and WanFang databases (inception to March 4, 2021) were searched for cohort studies to evaluate the relationship between SA and mortality in older people. A random-effects model was used to synthesis hazard ratio and 95% confidence intervals. Quality assessment was performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. All statistical analyses were conducted in STATA 16.0.

Results

In total, 21,158 older adults from 10 studies were included in the current systematic review and meta-analysis. The SA group tended to have 50% lower risk of all-cause mortality than the non-
