*: statistically significant, ADL: activities of daily living, PSQI: Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index. The parameters with a P-value of <0.200 were included in the multivariate analysis to identify factors that were independently associated with frailty. These parameters were PSQI, numbers of comorbidities, basic ADL, Mini-Mental State Examination, Mini-Nutritional Assessment, Geriatric Depression Scale-15, sex, age, hypertension, and osteoporosis. Backward stepwise model was used and last model (step-8) was presented in this table. Omnibus test for this model had a P-value of <0.001. Hosmer and Leme show test had a P-value of >0.050. Nagelkerke R square was 0.772 for this model.
