Summary

This study will check the health, nutrition, and daily living abilities of 330 older adults (age 60+) living in a rural village in Assiut, Egypt. Researchers will interview participants and take simple physical measurements like weight and blood pressure. No treatments are given—the goal is to understand the health challenges seniors face so local services can better support them.
