Sarcopenia [PDF]

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2017
Sarcopenia is a condition that is characterized by loss of muscle mass, muscle strength and muscle functional impairment with ageing. The definition of sarcopenia has been through various permutations; however, an enormous recent breakthrough is the inclusion of the condition in the ICD-10 classification of diseases.

Sarcopenia [PDF]

Clinical Medicine, 2014
Sarcopenia, the loss of muscle mass and function with age, is highly relevant to clinical practice as it has been associated with a wide range of ageing outcomes including disability and shorter survival times. As such it is now a major focus for research and drug discovery. There has been recent progress in the development of consensus definitions for

Uremic sarcopenia

Indian Journal of Nephrology, 2022
"Uremic sarcopenia" refers to a progressive decrease in muscle mass, strength, and function despite normal skeletal muscle physiology in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Sarcopenia involves multiple risk factors, comprising immunological changes, hormonal, metabolic acidosis, reduced protein intake, and physical inactivity.

Sarcopenia

Wiener Medizinische Wochenschrift, 2018
Sarcopenia is a very common, but frequently overlooked and undertreated geriatric syndrome comprising pronounced muscle mass and strength/performance loss. Estimated prevalence is between 5 and 40% in the general population, accompanied by an exponential incline with increasing age. Sarcopenia is connected to atrophy and loss of muscle fibers and motor

Sarcopenia != Dynapenia [PDF]

The Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences, 2008
Maximal voluntary force (strength) production declines with age and contributes to physical dependence and mortality. Consequently, a great deal of research has focused on identifying strategies to maintain muscle mass during the aging process and elucidating key molecular pathways of atrophy, with the rationale that the loss of strength is primarily a

Correlation between nutrition, oral health, and different sarcopenia groups among elderly outpatients of community hospitals: a cross-sectional study of 1505 participants in China

BMC Geriatrics, 2022
Background Studies have rarely explored the association between oral health status and different sarcopenia groups (possible sarcopenia, diagnosed sarcopenia, and severe sarcopenia). Moreover, these studies have not reported any definitive conclusions of

The association between sarcopenia and incident chronic lung disease in the general population: A longitudinal study based on CHARLS data

Experimental Gerontology, 2023
Background: Data regarding the association of sarcopenia with chronic lung disease (CLD) has led to inconclusive results. The main goal of this research was to investigate the association between sarcopenia and CLD in middle-aged and elderly individuals ...

Targeting RAGE prevents muscle wasting and prolongs survival in cancer cachexia [PDF]

, 2020
Background: Cachexia, a multifactorial syndrome affecting more than 50% of patients with advanced cancer and responsible for ~20% of cancer-associated deaths, is still a poorly understood process without a standard cure available. Skeletal muscle atrophy

Sarcopenia as a Robust Predictor of Readmission within 6 Months among Individuals Experiencing Acute Stroke [PDF]

Annals of Geriatric Medicine and Research
Background Sarcopenia negatively affects the short-term prognosis of hospitalized older adults. However, no evidence currently supports a direct relationship between sarcopenia and readmission among individuals who have experienced an acute stroke ...

Sarcopenic Obesity Defined by Japanese Working Group on Sarcopenic Obesity in Post-Stroke Inpatients: Prevalence and Clinical Implications [PDF]

Annals of Geriatric Medicine and Research
Background Sarcopenic obesity (SO) is characterized by the coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity, associated with adverse health outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of SO as defined by the recently published Japanese Working Group on
