In the published article, there was an error. [In preparation for data analysis, our researchers performed two independent participant data calculations on all data to ensure that the final enrolled population data were correct. However, these two independent calculations did not yield the same results, so we performed a final calculation to ensure the correctness of the subsequent data analysis. Although the final calculations led to the correct conclusions and ensured the scientific validity and correctness of our study, however, when writing the original manuscript, we incorrectly presented the number of participants, which differed from the correct number of participants presented by the Figure 1. Therefore, we hereby submit Correction to Frontiers in Nutrition to ensure the scientific validity and rigour of our study.]. 2011 and 2015 surveys. According to the standards of the World Health Organization and the United Nations, people over 65 years old are defined as the elderly. Participants with missing or potentially anomalous relevant data or below the age of 65 were excluded. Additionally, it has been shown in prior research that despite potential missing data among participants, frailty can still be identified through a minimum of 75% FI assessments, even if the specific correlates of frailty may vary. As a result, individuals with a significant amount of missing data and who did not complete at least 75% FI assessments were excluded from the study (7, 8). Ultimately, a total of 8,554 participants were included in the study (Figure 1).]"The corrected sentence appears below:" As a result, individuals with a significant amount of missing data and who did not complete at least 75% FI assessments were excluded from the study (7, 8). Ultimately, a total of 9,147 participants were included in the study (Figure 1).]"The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
