Objective Burning solid cooking fuel contributes to household air pollution and is associated with frailty.However,how solid cooking fuel use contributes to the development of frailty has not been well illustrated.Methods This study recruited 8,947 participants aged≥45 years from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study,2011–2018.Group-based trajectory modeling was employed to identify frailty trajectories.Multinomial logistic regression was used to assess the association between solid cooking fuel use and frailty trajectories.Population-attributable fractions were used to estimate the frailty burden from solid fuel use.Results We identified three frailty trajectories:low-stable(n=5,789),moderate-increasing(n=2,603),and fast-increasing(n=555).Solid fuel use was associated with higher odds of being in the moderate-increasing(OR:1.24,95%CI:1.08–1.42)and fast-increasing(OR:1.48,95%CI:1.14–1.92)trajectories.These associations were strengthened by longer solid fuel use(P for trend<0.001).Switching to clean fuel significantly reduced the risk of being in these trajectories compared with persistent solid fuel users.Without solid fuel,8%of moderate-and 19%of fast-increasing trajectories demonstrated frailty development like the low-stable group.Conclusion Solid cooking fuel use is associated with frailty trajectories in middle-aged and older Chinese populations.
