Data visualization for the clusters of the change in the eGDR. (A) CHARLS. (B) ELSA. (C) HRS. Three distinct trajectory patterns were identified: (1) a relatively stable or slightly decreasing trajectory, (2) a rapid decline followed by stabilization, and (3) a steady increase. These clusters highlight heterogeneity in health trajectories, with the second group reflecting accelerated deterioration and the third suggesting potential improvement or resilience.
