Signaling Pathways That Control Muscle Mass [PDF]
The loss of skeletal muscle mass under a wide range of acute and chronic maladies is associated with poor prognosis, reduced quality of life, and increased mortality.

Sarcopenia: Aging-Related Loss of Muscle Mass and Function
Sarcopenia is a loss of muscle mass and function in the elderly that reduces mobility, diminishes quality of life, and can lead to fall-related injuries, which require costly hospitalization and extended rehabilitation.

Pitfalls in the measurement of muscle mass: a need for a reference standard
All proposed definitions of sarcopenia include the measurement of muscle mass, but the techniques and threshold values used vary. Indeed, the literature does not establish consensus on the best technique for measuring lean body mass.

D3‐Creatine dilution and the importance of accuracy in the assessment of skeletal muscle mass
Sarcopenia has been described as the age‐associated decrease in skeletal muscle mass. However, virtually every study of sarcopenia has measured lean body mass (LBM) or fat free mass (FFM) rather than muscle mass, specifically.

Relationship of muscle mass and fat mass with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome remains uncertain, especially among Asian population. We performed a cross-sectional study with 14,807 adult participants aged between 18 and 65 in the fourth and ...

Epidermal growth factor receptor contributes to indirect regulation of skeletal muscle mass by androgen [PDF]
Androgen is widely acknowledged to regulate skeletal muscle mass. However, the specific mechanism driving muscle atrophy resulting from androgen deficiency remains elusive.

Associations Between Trunk Muscle/Fat Composition, Narrowing Lumbar Disc Space, and Low Back Pain in Middle-Aged Farmers: A Cross-Sectional Study [PDF]
Objective To investigate the association of trunk fat and muscle composition, lumbar disc space narrowing, and low back pain in middle-aged farmers. Methods Fat and muscle areas were identified using standard Hounsfield unit ranges for adipose tissue and
