Clinical practice guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis secondary to ankylosing spondylitis

Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily affects the axial skeleton and is often associated with secondary osteoporosis. Currently, there are no established international consensus or guidelines for managing AS‐related osteoporosis (AS‐OP). This guideline was jointly developed by several Chinese academic institutions,

Body Composition and Muscle Function in Bronchiectasis: A Comparative Longitudinal Study

Respirology, EarlyView.
We compared body composition and muscle function in adults with bronchiectasis versus controls and assessed if leg strength estimates 1‐year outcomes. Patients with bronchiectasis had lower muscle mass, bone density, and leg strength. Reduced leg strength is associated with worse dyspnoea, quality of life, and functional capacity, highlighting the need

Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists and muscle strength changes in older adults: Risks beyond muscle mass reductions

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)/Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists are increasingly prescribed for the management of obesity and type 2 diabetes, yet research pertinent to their effects on muscle health is limited. Considering the central role of muscle strength as a sarcopenia component, this article summarizes emerging ...
