Ever wondered how your health will fare as you age? The ICOPE tool aims to answer that question, especially for China's older population. This tool measures "Intrinsic Capacity" (IC), a set of physical and mental abilities, to predict how well older adults will function in their later years. The study found that lower IC scores are linked to a higher risk of death and declining functional abilities. So, by assessing IC early on, we can identify high-risk individuals and intervene before it's too late.
