Previous research has shown a mixed relationship between diabetes and frailty in older people, indicating a complex interrelationship. The aim of this study was to examine the association between routinely collected HbA1c testing data and frailty in a large cohort from Western Sydney.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Data from the Western Sydney Frailty Registry Study were linked to the Blacktown and Mount Druitt hospital HbA1c testing datasets. These datasets include information on patient outcomes, pathological metrics, hospitalisation indicators, and a range of morbidity and demographic information. This was then analysed in Stata using multivariable regression.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Diabetes was more common in frail patients than in pre\u2010frail or non\u2010frail patients. Those with both diabetes and frailty did not have an increased risk of death or rehospitalisation in age and sex corrected analyses (OR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.36\u20131.21 and 0.90, 95% CI: 0.37\u20132.17, respectively) compared to those with frailty alone. There was a reduced risk of death associated with higher HbA1c for frail people (OR: 0.58, 95% CI: 0.37\u20130.90).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>There is a complex interrelationship between diabetes and frailty.
