Use machine learning to help identify possible sarcopenia cases in maintenance hemodialysis patients
Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients often suffer from sarcopenia, which is strongly associated with their long-term mortality. The diagnosis and treatment of sarcopenia, especially possible sarcopenia for MHD patients are of great ...

Sarcopenia in chronic kidney disease: what have we learned so far?
The term sarcopenia was first introduced in 1988 by Irwin Rosenberg to define a condition of muscle loss that occurs in the elderly. Since then, a broader definition comprising not only loss of muscle mass, but also loss of muscle strength and low ...

Long‐Term Nutritional Benefits of Laparoscopic Pancreatoduodenectomy Over Open Surgery
Minimally invasive laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) significantly improves long‐term nutritional outcomes compared to open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD). LPD patients demonstrated better preservation of muscle mass index (PMI) and a lower incidence of postoperative fatty liver.

Oxytocin is an age-specific circulating hormone that is necessary for muscle maintenance and regeneration. [PDF]
The regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle declines with age. Previous studies suggest that this process can be reversed by exposure to young circulation; however, systemic age-specific factors responsible for this phenomenon are largely unknown.

Essential Updates 2023/2024: Recent Advances of Multimodal Approach in Patients for Gastric Cancer
ABSTRACT Gastric cancer remains a major global health burden, especially in East Asia. Recent years have brought significant advances in multimodal management, including surgery, perioperative chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and supportive care. This review summarizes key updates from 2023 to 2024, focusing on surgical innovations, perioperative systemic ...

Age-related deficits in skeletal muscle recovery following disuse are associated with neuromuscular junction instability and ER stress, not impaired protein synthesis. [PDF]
Age-related loss of muscle mass and strength can be accelerated by impaired recovery of muscle mass following a transient atrophic stimulus. The aim of this study was to identify the mechanisms underlying the attenuated recovery of muscle mass and ...

We conducted a cross‐organ review of surgical outcomes in older cancer patients based on literature cited in Japanese clinical guidelines. This study summarizes postoperative complication rates and survival outcomes across five major cancer types. The findings aim to support the development of geriatric oncology surgical guidelines tailored to Japan's ...
