Sarcopenia

Sarcopenia interventions in long-term care facilities targeting sedentary behaviour and physical inactivity: A systematic review.

Sedentary behaviour and physical inactivity are independent risk factors for sarcopenia for long-term care facility residents. Understanding the components, mechanisms and context of interventions that target change in these risk factors can help optimize sarcopenia management approaches. This study aimed...

Frequency of weight and body composition increases in advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients during first line therapy.

The primary objective of this study was to assess the frequency of body composition increases and their relationships to changes in body weight in two cohorts of real world, treatment-naรฏve, advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. One cohort received...

High-Intensity Interval Training Mitigates Sarcopenia and Suppresses the Myoblast Senescence Regulator EEF1E1.

The optimal exercise regimen for alleviating sarcopenia remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) over moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) in ameliorating sarcopenia. We conducted a randomized crossover trial to evaluate plasma proteomic reactions...

Novel insights into the association between genetically proxied inhibition of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 and risk of sarcopenia.

The effects of lipid-lowering drugs [including statins, ezetimibe, and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors] on hyperlipidaemia have been established. Some may have treatment effects beyond their reported properties, offering potential opportunities for drug repurposing. Epidemiological studies have reported...

Improved health by combining dietary restriction and promoting muscle growth in DNA repair-deficient progeroid mice.

Ageing is a complex multifactorial process, impacting all organs and tissues, with DNA damage accumulation serving as a common underlying cause. To decelerate ageing, various strategies have been applied to model organisms and evaluated for health and lifespan benefits. Dietary...

Ubiquitylomics: An Emerging Approach for Profiling Protein Ubiquitylation in Skeletal Muscle.

Skeletal muscle is a highly adaptable tissue, finely tuned by various physiological and pathological factors. Whilst the pivotal role of skeletal muscle in overall health is widely acknowledged, unravelling the underlying molecular mechanisms poses ongoing challenges. Protein ubiquitylation, a crucial...

Neuromuscular impairment at different stages of human sarcopenia.

Degeneration of the motoneuron and neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and loss of motor units (MUs) contribute to age-related muscle wasting and weakness associated with sarcopenia. However, these features have not been comprehensively investigated in humans. This study aimed to compare neuromuscular...

Assessing cachexia in obesity: contradiction or perfectly possible?

Existing definitions of clinically important weight loss in patients with cancer do not specifically address weight loss in patients who are obese at presentation. This review explores the clinical impact of weight loss and depletion of the skeletal muscle mass...

Survey on the knowledge and practices in anorexia of aging diagnosis and management in Japan.

Anorexia of aging (AA) is a condition in older adults that includes loss of appetite and reduced food intake. There is a lack of detailed analysis of the potential influence of educational initiatives in addressing AA. This study aimed to...

Targeted nutritional intervention attenuates experimental lung cancer cachexia.

Cachexia, a syndrome with high prevalence in non-small cell lung cancer patients, impairs quality of life and reduces tolerance and responsiveness to cancer therapy resulting in decreased survival. Optimal nutritional care is pivotal in the treatment of cachexia and a...

Efficacy of empagliflozin in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction according to frailty status in EMPEROR-Preserved.

Frailty is a severe, common co-morbidity associated with heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The impact of frailty on HFpEF outcomes may affect treatment choices in HFpEF. The impact of frailty on HFpEF patients and any impact on...
