TL;DR

Sarcopenia is common in patients of chronic pancreatitis, and it is characterized by activation of catabolic signaling, impaired anabolic pathways, mitochondrial dysfunction, and defective autophagy, and these findings are hypothesis-generating and may help identify targets to mitigate muscle loss and improve outcomes.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of biomarkers of sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity

Objective: Sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity (SO) are geriatric syndromes characterized by reduced skeletal muscle mass and impaired muscle strength, whose specific biomarkers and underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to conduct a meta-analysis and literature review on the associations between biomarke...

Study of sarcopenia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a fast-spreading global health disorder with acutely rising prevalence and mortality rates in a broad spectrum of populations. Accumulating evidence highlights the bidirectional relationship between T2DM and sarcopenia, age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. This rev...

The Effect of Ibrutinib Therapy on Sarcopenia in Patients with Hematologic Malignancies

Aim: Sarcopenia, characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, is associated with poor prognosis in patients with hematologic malignancies. Given the potential musculoskeletal effects of Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors, this study aimed to explore sarcopenia-related parameters in patients wi...

[Sarcopenia in gastrointestinal oncology: Diagnostic criteria, clinical implications and management].

Sarcopenia is defined as a loss of muscle mass and strength. It represents a frequent and multifactorial complication in patients with gastrointestinal cancers, resulting from the combined effects of malnutrition, chronic inflammation, metabolic alterations, and reduced physical activity level. Its assessment relies on...

Frequency and Clinical Correlates of Sarcopenia in Patients With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

Introduction Sarcopenia may occur in people with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease; however, the condition's frequency and correlation with liver fibrosis vary by group. Patients with reduced muscle mass and strength may also have a higher metabolic burden and more severe liver involvement. Becau...
