[Sarcopenia: a physical marker of frailty].

Revue medicale de Liege, 2010
Sarcopenia is defined by loss of muscular mass, strength and quality that occur in elderly. Multiple factors underlie this process: low physical activity, low steroids hormones, increase of cytokines, loss of motoneurons, decrease of protein synthesis...However, the role of these factors is not yet well understood and consensual clinical definition and

Frailty in the elderly: the physical dimension.

Europa medicophysica, 2007

The Pathogenesis of Physical Frailty and Sarcopenia

2019
Disordered energy metabolism in cirrhosis contributes to skeletal muscle proteolysis and impaired protein synthesis with dysregulated protein homeostasis (proteostasis) and resultant sarcopenia. Circulating abnormalities including hyperammonemia, hypogonadism, decreased branched chain amino acids, and endotoxemia are potential mediators of the liver ...
