    The study investigates the relationship between aspirin use and intrinsic capacity deterioration in elderly individuals in Chinese communities.

  • 2

    A total of 250 participants were analyzed using propensity score matching to reduce baseline confounding factors.

  • 3

    Aspirin use alone was not significantly correlated with severe loss of intrinsic capacity but was linked to negative sensory function outcomes.

  • 4

    The combination of aspirin with ACEI or ARBs significantly reduced the incidence of severe loss of intrinsic capacity.

  • 5

    Sex variability was observed in the relationship between aspirin use and sensory function-related outcomes.
