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.

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.
