MORTALITY

The usefulness of the updated bioelectrical impedance vector analysis references for assessing malnutrition, sarcopenia and predicting mortality in hospitalized patients.

The application of validated pre-screening tools is crucial in clinical practice to identify patients at risk for disease. Bioelectrical Impedance Vector Analysis (BIVA) has gained recognition as a qualitative method for monitoring body composition and assessing the health status of...

Associations Between Exercise Training, Physical Activity, Sedentary Behaviour and Mortality: An Umbrella Review of Meta-Analyses.

Numerous studies support the association of exercise training, physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) with both mortality and morbidity outcomes. The results across studies have been inconsistent, and no umbrella reviews have yet been conducted on this topic. We...

Diagnostic Criteria for Cancer-Associated Cachexia: Insights from a Multicentre Cohort Study.

To explore the association between cachexia, as defined by different diagnostic criteria, and the risk of mortality in individuals with cancer. We also examined which diagnostic criteria are more feasible and appropriate for cancer-associated cachexia in clinical practice. A multicentre...

Association of Cumulative Exposure to Metabolic Score for Visceral Fat With the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease and All-Cause Mortality: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Previous studies have demonstrated that metabolic score for visceral fat (METS-VF), a novel surrogate indicator assessing visceral fat, was associated with the risk of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality, predicting the risks based on a single METS-VF...

Descriptive Epidemiology and Prognostic Significance of Diaphragm Thickness in the General Population: The Nagahama Study.

Diaphragm thickness is a potential marker of sarcopenia in addition to muscle mass and strength at extremities. We aimed to clarify the descriptive epidemiology and prognostic significance of diaphragm thickness in the general population. The study participants were 3324 community...

Long-Term Impact of Physical Activity on Mortality in Adults With Multimorbidity: A 12-Year Cohort Longitudinal Study From the Survey on Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe.

While physical activity (PA) is known to reduce mortality in the general population, this relationship in individuals with multimorbidity (โ‰ฅโ€‰2 chronic conditions) is unclear. This longitudinal study aimed to investigate whether there is a long-term association between PA levels and...

Dynapenia and Sarcopenia as Risk Factors for Mortality in Interstitial Lung Disease.

Fibrotic interstitial lung disease (ILD) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Patients often exhibit impaired nutritional status and alterations in body composition, such as dynapenia and sarcopenia, which correlate with poor pulmonary function, reduced exercise tolerance and diminished quality...

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...

SARC-Calf using calf circumference adjusted for BMI predicts six-months readmission and mortality in hospitalized patients: a secondary analysis of a cohort study.

Sarcopenia is a prevalent condition associated with worse clinical outcomes in hospitalized patients. The SARC-Calf is an accurate instrument for its screening; however, it includes the calf circumference (CC) measure as a criterion, which is influenced by adiposity. An adjustment...

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...
