Association Between Proton‐Pump Inhibitors and Muscle Strength in Older Adults: A Population‐Based Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Digestive Diseases, EarlyView.
In this population‐based study of 616 older adults, we analyzed the associations of proton‐pump inhibitor (PPI) use with handgrip strength, 4‐m walking performance, and armchair push–pull performance. After adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, and comorbidity burden using the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), only the association with armchair push ...

Circulating Musclin is associated with skeletal muscle function and subclinical cardiac dysfunction in patients with cancer

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Musclin (osteocrin) is a skeletal muscle‐derived peptide that has been implicated in cardioprotective signalling pathways. Its relevance in cancer patients, who frequently experience muscle wasting and cardiotoxicity, remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether circulating Musclin levels reflect functional capacity and
