Inflammatory index and related markers among frailty groups. Comparisons are made using ANOVA between non-frail (circles), pre-frail (squares) and frail (triangles) subjects as determined by the Fried’s Frailty assessment tool. In cases where the frailty F statistic suggested a significant overall affect, post hoc pairwise comparisons were performed with p value adjustment with Bonferroni or Tamhane, as determined by homogeneity of variance. Only significant p values are marked. Inflammatory index is a calculated parameter: 0.333*log (IL-6) + 0.666*log (sTNFR1)
