Feedback: There are still large gaps in our understanding of the interaction between disabilities and aging, including how this interaction varies depending on the type and degree of disability and other factors such as socioeconomics and gender. Nutritional status, social situations, and the decade of life of the patient are not factors that vary the interactions between disabilities and aging.
