Mortality in malnourished older adults diagnosed by ESPEN and GLIM criteria in the SarcoPhAge study [PDF]
Abstract Background The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria have been recently launched by consensus of the major nutrition societies. GLIM criteria are partly constructed on the previous definition of malnutrition developed by the European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN).

Recent sarcopenia definitions—prevalence, agreement and mortality associations among men: Findings from population‐based cohorts [PDF]
Abstract Background The 2019 European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP2) and the Sarcopenia Definitions and Outcomes Consortium (SDOC) have recently proposed sarcopenia definitions. However, comparisons of the performance of these approaches in terms of thresholds employed, concordance in individuals and prediction of important ...

Evaluating quality of life in frailty: applicability and clinimetric properties of the SarQoL® questionnaire [PDF]
Abstract Background The SarQoL® questionnaire was specifically designed to measure quality of life (QoL) in sarcopenia. Frailty and sarcopenia have areas of overlap, notably weak muscle strength and slow gait speed, which may mean that the SarQoL could provide a measure of QoL in frailty.

Gender differences in risk factors for the 2 year development of sarcopenia in community‐dwelling older adults [PDF]
Abstract Background Sarcopenia is an age‐related chronic condition that can lead to mobility disabilities. This study aimed to evaluate the risk factors for incident sarcopenia in older Korean adults. Methods The Korean Frailty and Aging Cohort Study (KFACS) is a multicentre prospective study with a baseline examination in 2016–2017.

Sarcopenia Is Associated With Increased Risk of Abnormal Sleep Duration in the Older People: A 10‐Year Cohort Study From China [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background With the acceleration of the aging process, health issues of older people have gradually become one of the most important research topics. The older people experience significant reductions in muscle mass and physical performance. Cross‐sectional studies have found an association between the sarcopenia and sleep duration.

Osteosarcopenia in Chronic Kidney Disease: An Overlooked Syndrome? [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Healthy ageing relies on maintaining physiological systems, particularly the musculoskeletal system (MKS). After 50, declines in bone density, muscle mass and strength increase the risk of osteoporosis and sarcopenia, leading to frailty, fractures and higher healthcare costs.

Overall mortality for community‐dwelling adults over 50 years at risk of malnutrition [PDF]
Abstract Background It is well reported that malnutrition in acute care is associated with poorer health outcomes including increased mortality. However, the consequences of malnutrition on survival in community settings is uncertain. Malnutrition in people 65 years or over is often cited.

Frailty trajectories in community‐dwelling older adults during COVID‐19 pandemic: The PRESTIGE study
Abstract Background Frailty has been recognized as potential surrogate of biological age and relevant risk factor for COVID‐19 severity. Thus, it is important to explore the frailty trajectories during COVID‐19 pandemic and understand how COVID‐19 directly and indirectly impacts on frailty condition.
