Common predictors of independence and health- and lifespan, including existing morbidities, aerobic capacity, skeletal muscle mass, muscle strength and endurance, and motor coordination were individually ranked on a 5-grade scale (see Methods), averaged and presented as a cumulative health index, and evaluated by Kruskal Wallis and Dunn’s multiple comparison tests.
