Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2012 The primary focus of this review is to characterize the physiological elements of sarcopenia. In addition, we will also describe the impact of bedrest on sarcopenia and how various countermeasures may be able to offset the deleterious clinical consequences of unanticipated bedrest or hospitalization.

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chemotherapeutic advances have increased opportunities for conversion surgery (CS) in unresectable locally advanced (UR‐LA) pancreatic cancer (PC). However, the optimal indications for CS remain unclear. Sarcopenia has been associated with poor outcomes in PC, except UR‐LA PC. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the impact of sarcopenia on
