Impact of Skeletal Muscle Mass on Metabolic Health
Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020 Skeletal muscle is regarded as an endocrine and paracrine organ. Muscle-derived secretory proteins, referred to as myokines, mediate interactions between skeletal muscle mass and other organs such as the liver, adipose tissue, pancreas, bone, and the ...

Frequency and functional translation of low muscle mass in overweight and obese patients with COPD
Respiratory Research, 2021 Background Cut offs for fat-free mass index (FFMI) and appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) are available for diagnosing low muscle mass in patients with COPD. This study aimed to investigate: (1) the frequency of low muscle mass (FFMI and ASMI)

Differential metabolites in cirrhotic patients with hepatitis B and muscle mass loss
Frontiers in Nutrition, 2023 BackgroundSarcopenia leads to complications (infections, hepatic encephalopathy and ascites) and poor overall survival in patients with cirrhosis, in which the phenotypic presentation is loss of muscle mass.

Insomnia impairs muscle function via regulating protein degradation and muscle clock [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Background: Insomnia makes people more physically unable of doing daily duties, which results in a lack of strength, leads to lacking in strength. However, the effects of insomnia on muscle function have not yet been thoroughly investigated. So, the objectives of this study were to clarify how insomnia contributes to the decrease of muscular function ...

The gut microbiota influences skeletal muscle mass and function in mice
Science Translational Medicine, 2019 Transplanting the gut microbiota of pathogen-free mice into germ-free mice improves skeletal muscle mass and strength. Of microbial metabolites and muscle Skeletal muscle is important not only for locomotion but also for regulating metabolic function ...

Muscle mass in musculoskeletal models [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics, 2010 Most current models of musculoskeletal dynamics lump a muscle's mass with its body segment, and then simulate the dynamics of these body segments connected by joints. As shown here, this popular approach leads to errors in the system's inertia matrix and hence in all aspects of the dynamics.

Low muscle mass, low muscle function, and sarcopenia in the urban and rural elderly
Scientific Reports, 2022 Health outcomes of the elderly vary between rural and urban areas. Sarcopenia is diagnosed as loss of muscle strength or impaired physical performance, namely “low muscle function” and low muscle mass.

Experimental neck muscle pain impairs standing balance in humans [PDF]
Experimental Brain Research 192, 4 (2009) 723-9, 2009 Impaired postural control has been reported in patients with chronic neck pain of both traumatic and non-traumatic etiologies, but whether painful stimulation of neck muscle per se can affect balance control during quiet standing in humans remains unclear.

Lower Central Fat Increase Risk of One-Year Muscle Mass Loss in Menopausal Women
Mediators of Inflammation, 2020 Background. Hormonal changes had been found in menopausal women. Muscle and bone mass decline after menopause and with aging, increasing the risk for sarcopenia and osteoporosis in later life.
