Clinical Importance of Sarcopenia And How It Impacts Orthopaedic-Trauma Patients and The Surgical Outcomes

open access: yesFolia Medica Indonesiana, 2022
Highlights: • Sarcopenia can cause deleterious effects on patients. • The Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) and the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) provide the most widely used criteria to diagnose sarcopenia ...

Anabolic resistance does not explain sarcopenia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, compared with healthy controls, despite reduced mTOR pathway activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundAgeing and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are risk factors for skeletal muscle loss. We investigated whether anabolic resistance to feeding might underlie accelerated muscle loss in older people with T2DM and whether dysregulated mTOR ...

Prognostic Value of Psoas Major Muscle Volume in Assessing Sarcopenia in Elderly Patients With Rectal Cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study investigates the prognostic utility of a novel volumetric indicator—psoas volume index (PVI)—for assessing sarcopenia in elderly rectal cancer patients. Sarcopenia classified by our proposed PVI cut‐off values was associated with poor nutritional and inflammatory status, and patients with low PVI showed significantly worse long‐term outcomes.

Body composition, IGF1 status, and physical functionality in nonagenarians: implications for osteosarcopenia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
OBJECTIVES: Body composition alterations occur during aging. The purpose of the present analysis was to explore the functional consequences of the overlap of sarcopenia and osteoporosis, and the potential role of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) in ...

Dietary protein in older adults: adequate daily intake but potential for improved distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Daily distribution of dietary protein may be important in protecting against sarcopenia, specifically in terms of per meal amounts relative to a proposed threshold for maximal response.

Prognostic Significance of Portal Vein Tumor Thrombus in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Treated With Chemoradiotherapy

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To examine the significance of portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) as a prognostic factor for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) treated with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by surgery. Methods The study retrospectively examined 313 patients with borderline resectable (BR) or locally advanced (LA) PDAC who underwent CRT ...

Integrated transcriptomics unveils mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation dysfunction as a shared mechanism in sarcopenia and obesity

open access: yesScientific Reports
Sarcopenia and obesity, two prevalent metabolic disorders in aging populations, often coexist and share overlapping pathophysiological mechanisms, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying their comorbidity remain elusive.
