Scoping review protocol on nonpharmacological interventions for possible sarcopenia or sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults [PDF]
Abstract Background: Preventing sarcopenia earlier in community has become a new recommendation in recent years. Several nonpharmacological interventions to reduce the risk of sarcopenia in community-dwelling older people have been proposed, therefore there is a need to identify which of these interventions are effective.

Possibility of small-molecule-based pharmacotherapy for sarcopenia
Muscle mass and strength decline with age. When severe, the loss is called sarcopenia. Sarcopenia is drawing attention worldwide, especially in highly aged societies, as a disease that should be treated. At present, we have limited tools to combat sarcopenia (e.g.
