The new direct oral anticoagulants are increasingly prescribed in older patients despite the paucity of data. New information has been released in 2018 from « real-world » data that seem reassuring about their risk/benefit ratio in old-old patients, provided a careful prescription. Finally, the Mediterranean diet is still gaining credit with a new study showing its benefits in preventing frailty in community-dwelling older persons.
