Osteosarcopenic obesity: A systematic review and a call for consensus on definitions and diagnostic criteria.

Osteosarcopenic obesity (OSO) is a clinical and functional condition characterized by the coexistence of osteopenia/osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and obesity (excess adiposity). Currently, the lack of consensus on diagnostic criteria and cut-off values complicates prevalence estimates and limits its potential role as...

Nutritional Status Predicts Functional Recovery and Adverse Outcomes in Older Adults: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Despite the high prevalence of malnutrition in acutely ill older patients, nutritional status is rarely assessed in emergency departments (EDs), and the impact of nutritional risk screening on functional recovery is poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the association...

Prognostic and associative significance of malnutrition in sarcopenia: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Malnutrition is a common phenomenon, particularly in those at an increased risk of muscle mass and function losses. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to explore the association of malnutrition with sarcopenia in middle-aged and older adults and...

Sarcopenic obesity and the risk of atrial fibrillation in non-diabetic older adults: A prospective cohort study.

Evidence of an association between sarcopenic obesity (SO) and the risk of long-term atrial fibrillation (AF) is lacking, and the underlying involvement of insulin resistance (IR) and inflammation is not clear. This community-based prospective cohort study evaluated sarcopenia, obesity, and...

Efficacy of nutrient supplements in managing malnutrition and sarcopenia in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients: a protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

COPD patients suffering from malnutrition or sarcopenia often incur higher healthcare costs and experience adverse clinical outcomes. Despite this, the effectiveness of nutrient supplements in this population remains uncertain. Two reviewers will independently search seven databases-PubMed, Embase, Web of Science,...

Interprofessional Management of (Risk of) Malnutrition and Sarcopenia: A Grounded Theory Study from the Perspective of Professionals.

As our global population ages, malnutrition and sarcopenia are increasingly prevalent. Given the multifactorial nature of these conditions, effective management of (risk of) malnutrition and sarcopenia necessitates interprofessional collaboration (IPC). This study aimed to understand primary and social care professionals'...
