Effectiveness of Mind-Body Exercise in Older Adults With Sarcopenia and Frailty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Mind-body exercise (MBE) has shown promise in mitigating the effects of sarcopenia and frailty in older adults. Nevertheless, its effectiveness in enhancing muscle function and physical performance in this population has not been well established. This study aimed to investigate...

Temporalis muscle thickness correlates with premorbid frailty in patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest.

Frailty is associated with mortality and functional outcome after cardiac arrest. Temporalis muscle thickness (TMT) is a measure of sarcopenia, which represents one dimension of frailty. We assessed the correlation between TMT, measured on head computed tomography (CT), and Clinical...

Cut-Off Points for Low Relative 30-s Sit-to-Stand Power and Their Associations With Adverse Health Conditions.

Despite muscle power derived from the 5-rep sit-to-stand (STS) test having been demonstrated to be a valuable biomarker in older individuals, there is limited information regarding muscle power derived from the 30-s STS test, a widely used test in the...

CT-Based Body Composition and Frailty as Predictors of Survival Among Older Adults With Gastrointestinal Malignancies.

Older adults with cancer are at an increased risk of treatment related toxicities and early death. Routinely collected clinico-demographic characteristics inadequately explain this increased risk limiting accurate prognostication. Prior studies have suggested that altered body composition and frailty are independently...

A fluorescent aptasensor for deoxynivalenol detection based on Nb.BbvCI-assisted targeted-responsive three-way junctions integrated DNA walking machine.

Deoxynivalenol (DON) contamination in cereals is a widespread issue with global implications, necessitating the development of efficient detection methods. Here, a fluorescent aptasensor integrating target-responsive DNA three-way junction (TWJ) and DNA walking machine was developed to detect DON. The DON-specific...

Association of Muscle Strength With All-Cause Mortality in the Oldest Old: Prospective Cohort Study From 28 Countries.

Ageing is associated with a gradual loss of muscle strength, which in the end may have consequences for survival. Whether muscle strength and mortality risk associate in a gradual or threshold-specific manner remains unclear. This study investigates the prospective association...

Frailty or sarcopenia: which is a better indicator of mortality risk in older adults?

Despite the different conditions, frailty and sarcopenia overlap regarding their common link: the assessment of walking speed and muscle strength. This study aimed to compare the frailty phenotype to the sarcopenia using different cut-off points for low grip strength to...

Long-term insulin resistance is associated with frailty, frailty progression, and cardiovascular disease.

Insulin resistance and diabetes are associated with an increased risk of frailty, and frailty is associated with cardiovascular disease and premature mortality. We aim to investigate the impact of long-term insulin resistance trajectories on future frailty and cardiovascular risk among...

Reduced temporal muscle thickness predicts shorter survival in patients undergoing chronic subdural haematoma drainage.

Chronic subdural haematoma (CSDH) drainage is a common neurosurgical procedure. CSDHs cause excess mortality, which is exacerbated by frailty. Sarcopenia contributes to frailty - its key component, low muscle mass, can be assessed using cross-sectional imaging. We aimed to examine...

Physical frailty, genetic predisposition, and incident arrhythmias.

Cross-sectional evidence suggests a possible link between frailty and atrial fibrillation (AF). It remains unclear whether frailty and incident arrhythmias are longitudinally associated. This study aimed to determine whether the frailty phenotype is longitudinally associated with incident arrhythmias, especially AF....

Association of computed tomography-derived muscle mass and quality with delayed acquisition independent walking after cardiovascular surgery.

In the context of cardiovascular surgery, the foremost concern lies in delayed functional recovery, as typified by the acquisition of independent walking after surgery, among older patients with decline in skeletal muscle mass and quality. Computed tomography (CT), which is...

Effect of resistance training on physical function during chemotherapy in colon cancer.
