Assessing SARCopenia with ecHOgraphy in Community-Dwelling Older Adults: A Validation Study (SARCHO).

OBJECTIVES

To prospectively evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the sarcopenia echography (SARCHO) point-of-care ultrasound protocol for diagnosing sarcopenia, in accordance with the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People 2.

METHODS

This study was conducted as a single-center prospective, feasibility diagnostic accuracy...

Rectus femoris ultrasound identifies sarcopenia and predicts poor outcomes in patients with acute decompensation of cirrhosis.

BACKGROUND & AIMS

Sarcopenia is common and associated with poor outcomes in decompensated cirrhosis. While computed tomography (CT) scan, with measurement of skeletal muscle index (SMI) at L3, is the gold standard for assessing sarcopenia in patients with cirrhosis, it is...

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...
