Comparative Analysis of Primary Sarcopenia and End‐Stage Renal Disease–Related Muscle Wasting Using Multi‐Omics Approaches

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Age‐related primary sarcopenia and end‐stage renal disease (ESRD)–related muscle wasting are discrete entities; however, both manifest as a decline in skeletal muscle mass and strength. The etiological pathways differ, with aging factors implicated in sarcopenia and a combination of uremic factors, including haemodialysis ...
