Briggs R, et al. – The study aimed to determine the association between baseline depression and subsequent falls, both accidental and unexplained, at 2–year follow–up in a cohort of community dwelling adults aged ≥50 years. It was found that the risk of falls correlated with depression in older adults was more marked for unexplained falls (UFs), with the association for accidental falls (AFs) approaching borderline significance only.
