Dietary fibre may mitigate sarcopenia risk:Findings from the NU-AGE cohort of older european adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Sarcopenia is characterised by a progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and physical function as well as related metabolic disturbances. While fibre-rich diets can influence metabolic health outcomes, the impact on skeletal muscle mass and function is ...

Exercise Interventions for the Management of Sarcopenia: Possibilities and Challenges

open access: yesPhysical & Occupational Therapy In Geriatrics, 2022
Abstract Skeletal muscles undergo macroscopic changes, including atrophy and myosteatosis, alongside microscopic changes in their phenotype due to ageing. Sarcopenia is a muscle disease that affects older people and is characterised by the progressive loss of skeletal muscle, resulting in reduced muscle function and a decrease in quality of ...

Bidirectional Association between Sarcopenia and Depressive Symptoms among Chinese Middle- and Older-Aged Adults: Longitudinal Observational Study

open access: yesBrain Sciences
Background: The study aimed to examine the bidirectional relationship between sarcopenia and depressive symptoms in a national, community-based cohort study, despite the unclear temporal sequence demonstrated previously.

Ammonia toxicity: from head to toe? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ammonia is diffused and transported across all plasma membranes. This entails that hyperammonemia leads to an increase in ammonia in all organs and tissues.

Possibility of small-molecule-based pharmacotherapy for sarcopenia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2015
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.

Frailty is independently associated with increased hospitalisation days in patients on the liver transplant waitlist [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
AIM: To investigate the impact of physical frailty on risk of hospitalisation in cirrhotic patients on the liver transplant waitlist. METHODS: Cirrhotics listed for liver transplantation at a single centre underwent frailty assessments using the Fried ...

Malnutrition, poor food intake, and adverse healthcare outcomes in non-critically ill obese acute care hospital patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Obesity, defined as a BMI\ua0≥\ua030\ua0kg/m, has demonstrated protective associations with mortality in some diseases. However, recent evidence demonstrates that poor nutritional status in critically ill obese patients confounds this relationship.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
