Temporalis muscle thickness: Ultrasound measurement, clinical significance and correlation with sarcopenic indices.

BACKGROUND & AIMS

The clinical relevance of temporal muscle thickness (TMT) as a sarcopenia marker remains uncertain. This analysis reevaluates its potential utility and limitations in sarcopenia assessment.

METHODS

TMT was assessed ultrasonographically in 648 individuals (Mean age: 66.5 (range, 22-98) years, Female...

Sarcopenic obesity defined by Japanese Working Group on Sarcopenic Obesity in post-stroke inpatients: prevalence and clinical implications.

Sarcopenic obesity (SO) is characterized by the coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity, associated with adverse health outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of SO as defined by the recently published Japanese Working Group on Sarcopenic Obesity (JWGSO) criteria...

Sex difference, proteostasis and mitochondrial function impact stroke-related sarcopenia-A systematic review and meta-analysis.

The prevalence of stroke-related sarcopenia has been noted; however, epidemiological data and interventions that increase or reduce the incidence of stroke-related sarcopenia remain lacking. Studies on stroke-related sarcopenia were included in association or interventional analyses. All analyses were performed using...
