Flexibility exercises and monitoring the dynamic change of flexibility might be helpful in preventing sarcopenia among adults aged 50 years or over. The comprehensive results show that PDHB plays a sarcoprotective role by suppressing the FoxP1-Arih2 axis and may serve as a therapeutic target in sarcopenia.

P=N/A In community-dwelling older adults at risk of malnutrition, there is a high prevalence of sarcopenia and severe sarcopenia. As such, screening positive for either malnutrition risk or sarcopenia in older adults should prompt screening for the other risk factor, to allow early institution of disease modifying interventions to forestall adverse outcomes for both malnutrition and sarcopenia.

Clinical studies show that sarcopenia can affect the rehabilitation effect and increase the risk of postoperative complications after total joint arthroplasty in many ways. Current research results show that sarcopenia and OA are related and can be mutually affected in the above 5 aspects, but more studies are needed to further clarify the relationship between them, so as to provide more theoretical basis for the understanding, prevention, diagnosis, and treatments of the two diseases.

Both sarcopenia and malnutrition are conditions amenable to intervention to improve clinical prognosis. This document describes the results of the expert consensus and the responses of the panelists on the nutritional management in routine clinical practice of patients with diabetes/hyperglycemia hospitalized (non-critically ill) with sarcopenia.
- |||||||||| Journal: Malnutrition management of hospitalized patients with diabetes/hyperglycemia and hip fracture (Pubmed Central) - Dec 23, 2022
The prevalence of malnutrition in patients with hip fracture is also high, due to their advanced age, and the acute injury itself provokes catabolic and inflammatory responses that result in disease-related malnutrition and sarcopenia, which aggravates the patient's clinical condition. This document describes the results of the expert consensus and the responses of the panelists on the nutritional management in routine clinical practice of patients with diabetes/hyperglycemia hospitalized (non-critically ill) with hip fracture.

We hypothesize that low compliance with post-operative IN was due to formula not being available for inpatients at our facility; the impact of IN on post-operative outcomes should be evaluated in future studies. Further evaluation of outcomes associated with structured, multidisciplinary prehabilitation in IBD relative to usual care is warranted.

Journal: Nutritional Management In Late Onset Tay-Sachs Disease: A Case Report. (Pubmed Central) - Dec 23, 2022 The treatment for such disorders commonly includes the use of miglustat, a medication that may cause several side effects (e.g., diarrhea and weight loss) that can contribute to the development of malnutrition...In response to the nutrition intervention, the patient progressed with diarrhea cessation, weight recovery, and improvement in physical function measured by the dynamometer. As patients undergoing treatment for Tay-Sachs disease quickly progress to malnutrition, and given the lack of guidelines to inform healthcare providers on nutritional recommendations for this cohort, the description of a case that had positive progression may inform healthcare providers and help to initiate a discussion on the need to conduct research in this field for the development of therapeutic protocols and nutrition recommendations.

However, their efficiency on postprandial muscle protein synthesis remains to be evaluated and long-term studies are needed. Integration of sarcopenia measures within scores of allostatic load may further increase the clinical relevance of changes of body composition, highlight its sensitivity to early nutritional intervention leading to mitigation of accelerated ageing, and contribute to wide delivery of precision oncology.

Recommended methods for muscle ultrasound was published recently, and the results of future studies are expected to be comparable. Although several challenging issues with muscle ultrasound remain, if it could be incorporated into educational programmes such as POCUS training, more clinicians may be able to use ultrasound for skeletal muscle assessment in the future.KEY MESSAGESThe evolution of hand-held ultrasound devices enables physicians to perform ultrasound at the bedside as part of regular medical examinations.Muscle ultrasound is considered an effective tool for evaluating muscle size and quality, and has been studied in various settings.More clinicians may be able to evaluate skeletal muscle assessment with the development of educational programmes on muscle ultrasound in the future.

Mechanistically, irisin or FNDC5 overexpression attenuated D-gal-induced senescence, redox imbalance, and fibrosis by regulating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway. Overall, irisin might be a promising therapeutic candidate for age-related skeletal muscle fibrosis.
