Exercise and Nutrition Therapy in a Patient With Glottic Cancer Cachexia Undergoing Chemoradiotherapy: A Case Report.

Cancer cachexia is a common complication in patients undergoing chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for head and neck cancer (HNC), leading to skeletal muscle loss, decreased physical function, and poor prognosis. Cachexia is frequently observed in patients with HNC, yet evidence supporting effective...

Consolidating Concepts from Recent International Expert Consensus on Sarcopenia: Implications for Heart Failure Management.

Heart failure is a clinical syndrome associated with a range of pathophysiological disorders including secondary sarcopenia that reduces patients' quality of life, mobility, physical fitness and capacity to undergo rehabilitation and recovery from acute decompensation. Although international expert writing groups...

Concordance of Freehand 3D Ultrasound Muscle Measurements With Sarcopenia Parameters in a Geriatric Rehabilitation Ward.

Sarcopenia is a devastating disease for older adults, but it lacks accessible and reliable tools for measuring total appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASMM). Two-dimensional muscle ultrasound (US) has been developed for its bedside clinical advantages and feasibility but lacks standardization...

The impact of mobility limitations on geriatric rehabilitation outcomes: Positive effects of resistance exercise training (RESORT).

Regaining walking ability is a key target in geriatric rehabilitation. This study evaluated the prevalence of walking ability at (pre-)admission and related clinical characteristics in a cohort of geriatric rehabilitation inpatients; in inpatients without walking ability, feasibility and effectiveness of...

Effects of sarcopenia on changes in prevalence of patients with depressive mood during hospitalization in geriatric rehabilitation.

The effect of sarcopenia on depressive mood during geriatric rehabilitation remains unclear. This study investigated the potential influence of sarcopenia on depressive mood among geriatric patients in a rehabilitation setting. This observational cohort study enrolled 204 patients aged ≥65 years...

Clinical Impact of Improvement in Sarcopenia through Cardiac Rehabilitation in Patients with Heart Failure.

Sarcopenia in patients with heart failure (HF) is associated with poor prognosis. Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) decreases the incidence of adverse events in patients with HF. However, the clinical implications of improving sarcopenia status through CR remain unclear. This study investigated...

The prevalence and impact of sarcopenia in older cardiac patients undergoing inpatient cardiac rehabilitation – results from a prospective, observational cohort pre-study.

The prevalence of sarcopenia and its impact in older patients undergoing inpatient cardiac rehabilitation (iCR) after cardiac procedure has been insufficiently studied. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of sarcopenia and quantify the functional capacity...

Harnessing the Systemic Biology of Functional Decline and Cachexia to Inform more Holistic Therapies for Incurable Cancers.

Options for treatment of incurable cancer remain scarce and are largely focused on limited therapeutic mechanisms. A new approach specific to advanced cancers is needed to identify new and effective treatments. Morbidity in advanced cancer is driven by functional decline...

Association of phasae angle dynamics with sarcopenia and activities of daily living in osteoporotic fracture patients.

This study aimed to determine whether changes in phase angle during rehabilitation are associated with clinical outcomes such as activities of daily living (ADL), skeletal muscle index (SMI), and strength in patients with osteoporotic fractures. This retrospective observational study included...
