How to Diagnose Sarcopenia in Korean Older Adults?
In 2017, Korea became an aged society, with the percentage of the population aged ≥65 years accounting for 14% of the total Korean population. The increasing number of older adults and the current health status of Korean older adults had led to increased

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

Sarcopenia is defined as a combination of low muscle mass with low muscle function. The term was first used to designate the loss of muscle mass and performance associated with aging. Now, recognized causes of sarcopenia also include chronic disease, a physically inactive lifestyle, loss of mobility, and malnutrition.

The Role of Mitochondria in Mediation of Skeletal Muscle Repair
Musculoskeletal health is directly linked to independence and longevity, but disease and aging impairs muscle mass and health. Complete repair after a pathological or physiological muscle injury is critical for maintaining muscle function, yet muscle ...

"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.
