Individuals with Parkinson's disease often experience a decline in their physiological reserve, leading to frailty, multimorbidity, and disability. A recent study published in The Journal of Frailty & Aging aimed to investigate the interrelationship between these conditions in a representative sample of people with parkinsonism. The research found
