Multimorbidity, functional, sensory and cognitive impairments will become prevailing issues, resulting in more heterogeneous care needs.
A repeat study with a larger, more heterogeneous sample is needed to further evaluate these diagnostic characteristics, recognizing that the specificity may not perform as well in low-income countries.
More research into the influence of these traits on treatment outcome in a more heterogeneous sample is needed.
Other various individual, genetic, and familiar characteristics were associated with EAH, yet studies among more heterogeneous sample populations are needed to confirm findings.
This study highlights that perceived stress, like depression and anxiety, is a psychological factor that influences the appraisal of cognitive ability; however, larger and more heterogeneous samples will be needed to better understand the multifactorial nature of memory complaints in older adulthood.
Therefore, further multicentered research involving a larger and more heterogeneous study sample is needed.
More research, with more heterogeneous study samples, is needed to establish the criterion validity of the 4DSQ Anxiety scale.
rHuEPO has also been demonstrated to reduce transfusion requirements in elderly patients undergoing major hip or knee reconstruction [ 28], in more heterogeneous populations of patients needing total joint arthroplasty or major hip or knee surgery [ 29, 30], and even in children requiring craniosynostosis repair [ 31].
Patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery who receive EPO have a nearly six-fold reduction in allogeneic transfusion risk; this benefit extends to elderly patients undergoing major hip or knee reconstruction, and also to more heterogeneous populations of patients needing total joint arthroplasty or major hip or knee surgery [ 24- 28].
Thus, future studies with a more heterogeneous group of participants are needed to examine the psychometric properties in more detail.
