The current systematic review and meta-analysis study was carried out to estimate the overall prevalence of sarcopenia in both males and females in different regions around the world and to show the major differences in its occurrence among different populations. |
G.E. Rus, J. Porter, A. Brunton, et al.Nutr Diet. 2020 Feb;77(1):90-102. doi: 10.1111/1747-0080.12608. There is no standardised interventional approach to preventing or treating sarcopenia in older adults in hospital. The aim of this review was to systematically identify and synthesise the effects of nutritional interventions on markers of sarcopenia in hospitalised patients aged 65 years and older. |
D. Sanchez-Rodriguez, E. Marco, A.J. Cruz-JentoftCurr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care. 2020 Mar;23(2):127-132. doi: 10.1097/MCO.0000000000000621. The aim was to summarize the latest advances and caveats in defining sarcopenia and discuss the implications of the most recent worldwide initiatives which are trying to harmonize the definition. |

W.J. Lee, L.N. Peng, C.H. Loh, et al.Exp Gerontol. 2020 Apr;132:110832. doi: 10.1016/j.exger.2020.110832. Epub 2020 Jan 8. Both serum homocysteine and high sensitivity C - reactive protein (hsCRP) are inflammatory markers related to vascular aging. Little was known about relationship between hsCRP and homocysteine and sarcopenia. The study aimed to explore the association between these two biomarkers and sarcopenia and its components. |
A. Mañas, B. Del Pozo-Cruz, I. Rodríguez-Gómez, et al.J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle. 2020 Jan 8. doi: 10.1002/jcsm.12511. [Epub ahead of print] This study aimed to determine the potential bidirectionality of the relationship between accelerometer-assessed between moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), sedentary behaviour (SB), and frailty over time in older adults. |
