Sarcopenia

Paradoxical Effect of Myosteatosis on the Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Response in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) has shifted from tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based therapy, improving outcomes but with variable individual responses. This study investigated the prognostic implications of pretreatment low skeletal muscle mass...

An Attention-Aware Multi-Task Learning Framework Identifies Candidate Targets for Drug Repurposing in Sarcopenia.

Sarcopenia presents a pressing public health concern due to its association with age-related muscle mass decline, strength loss and reduced physical performance, particularly in the growing older population. Given the absence of approved pharmacological therapies for sarcopenia, the need to...

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...

Association Between Handgrip Strength and Cardiovascular Disease Risk in MASLD: A Prospective Study From UK Biobank.

This study aimed to investigate the association between handgrip strength (HGS) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in individuals with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) using data from the UK Biobank cohort. A total of 201 563 participants were enrolled in this...

Early Administration of Bosentan in High-Risk COVID-19 Outpatients at Risk of Sarcopenia: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial.

Endothelial damage induces myofibrillar breakdown and muscle degradation in COVID-19 infection. There is a relationship between increased endothelin-1 synthesis and sarcopenia. We evaluated the preventive effect of early bosentan therapy as an endothelin receptor blocker in sarcopenia in high-risk outpatients...

BIO101 in Sarcopenic Seniors at Risk of Mobility Disability: Results of a Double-Blind Randomised Interventional Phase 2b Trial.

Sarcopenia is a progressive muscle disorder that may lead to mobility disability. No pharmaceutical interventions are currently available, and treatment relies on physical exercise and nutrition. The aim of SARA-INT was to investigate whether BIO101 (20-hydroxyecdysone), an activator of the...

Zinc Alleviates Diabetic Muscle Atrophy via Modulation of the SIRT1/FoxO1 Autophagy Pathway Through GPR39.

Muscle atrophy is a severe complication of diabetes, with autophagy playing a critical role in its progression. Zinc has been shown to alleviate hyperglycaemia and several diabetes-related complications, but its direct role in mediating diabetic muscle atrophy remains unclear. This...
