Single‐Nucleus Atlas of Spinal Sarcopenia Patients Reveals Disruption of Quiescent and Regenerative Satellite Cell Niches in Fatty‐Infiltrated Muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanisms of Fatty Infiltration and Muscle Degeneration. Clinical metadata identified intramuscular fat accumulation as an independent driver of muscle mass decline. Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing of spinal sarcopenia muscle revealed adipogenic reprogramming of fibro‐adipogenic progenitors, satellite‐cell niche disruption, and elevated levels of the ...

Sarcopenia and Sarcopenic Obesity in Postmenopausal Women: Limitations of BMI as a Predictor of Sarcopenic Obesity

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
The prevalence of sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity is large among community‐dwelling postmenopausal women, and lower body mass index is a significant predictor of both. The finding that low body mass index predicts both sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity, highlights the limitation of body mass index as a measure of adiposity in the assessment of ...

Arthroscopic Palmaris Longus Tendon Bridging for Augmented Repair of Bursal‐Sided Partial Thickness Rotator Cuff Tears

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The management of bursal‐sided partial‐thickness rotator cuff tears remains controversial. Both transtendon repair preserving the residual tendon and conversion to full‐thickness repair yield satisfactory outcomes. However, treating bursal‐sided partial‐thickness rotator cuff tears with significant tendon retraction because of delamination is ...
