  • ||||||||||  Review, Journal:  Improper Remodeling of Organelles Deputed to Ca Handling and Aerobic ATP Production Underlies Muscle Dysfunction in Ageing. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 28, 2021   
    All these structural changes were accompanied by related functional changes, i.e., loss/decay in function caused by denervation and ageing, and improved function following FES or exercise. These data suggest that the integrity and proper disposition of intracellular organelles deputed to Ca handling and aerobic generation of ATP is challenged by inactivity (or reduced activity); modifications in the architecture of these intracellular membrane systems may contribute to muscle dysfunction in ageing and sarcopenia.
  • ||||||||||  Clinical, Observational data, Journal:  Sarcopenia in geriatric patients from the plateau region of Qinghai-Tibet: A cross-sectional study. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 27, 2021   
    Specific cultural features of the region, including ethnicity, brewed tea and ghee consumption, were not significantly associated with sarcopenia. Higher body mass index and consumption of beef and mutton were protective, while patients who were widowed or with a history of falling were at increased risk.
  • ||||||||||  Clinical, Review, Journal:  Nutrition risk and assessment process in patients with bladder cancer undergoing radical cystectomy. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 24, 2021   
    In this essay, we discuss validated nutrition screening and assessment tools such as the Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment; however, each healthcare team must decide on the one which will work best for their clinic. Patients with bladder cancer may be at risk for specific nutrient deficiencies which should be monitored and corrected to improve outcomes and overall health.
  • ||||||||||  Review, Journal:  Assessments of frailty in bladder cancer. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 24, 2021   
    There is no universally agreed upon frailty assessment, but the most studied in radical cystectomy is the modified Frailty Index, providing valuable data with which to counsel patients preoperatively. Alterations in immune phenotypes provide potential future diagnostic biomarkers for frailty.
  • ||||||||||  Review, Journal:  Obesity paradox and heart failure. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 24, 2021   
    BMI does not distinguish between the metabolically healthy and metabolically unhealthy obesity. The obesity impact on morbidity and premature mortality can be underestimated and, therefore, may lead to incorrect clinical courses.
  • ||||||||||  Clinical, Journal:  Estimation of sarcopenia prevalence in individuals at different ages from Zheijang province in China. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 24, 2021   
    These findings shows that the prevalence of sarcopenia increased gradually with age and varied significantly based on the diagnostic criteria used for this analysis. The mean SMI of young women was lower than in middle-aged women, making them an unsuitable reference population for determining cut-off values for sarcopenia diagnosis.
  • ||||||||||  Review, Journal:  Impact of Liver and Pancreas Diseases on Nutritional Status. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 24, 2021   
    In this review, we summarize the factors contributing to malnutrition, and the effects on nutritional status and clinical outcomes of liver and pancreatic diseases. We explain the current knowledge on how to assess malnutrition and the efficacy of nutritional interventions in these settings.
  • ||||||||||  Clinical, Journal:  Association of Water Intake with Hand Grip Strength in Community-Dwelling Older Adults. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 23, 2021   
    Similarly, the correlation between water intake and HGS, the difference in HGS depending on adequate water intake status, and the risk of low muscle strength depending on water intake quartile were significant only in the unadjusted model. These data indicate that factors such as age, body size, and resistance exercise contribute to improvements in HGS in older adults, whereas water intake may not.
  • ||||||||||  Clinical, Journal:  Relationship between Oral Hypofunction and Sarcopenia in Community-Dwelling Older Adults: The Otassha Study. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 23, 2021   
    A logistic regression showed oral hypofunction, age, body mass index, higher-level functional capacity, and serum albumin level were significantly associated with sarcopenia. Sarcopenia occurred at an increased frequency in patients diagnosed with oral hypofunction (odds ratio: 1.59, 95% confidence interval: 1.02-2.47); accordingly, oral hypofunction appears to be significantly associated with sarcopenia.
  • ||||||||||  Journal:  Research into ageing and frailty. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 22, 2021   
    These issues can only be addressed with development of infrastructure, capacity and expertise in ageing research. Commonly used research methodologies must be adapted to take account of frailty, cognitive impairment and functional dependency.

    Preclinical, Journal:  Long-term silk peptide intake promotes skeletal muscle mass, reduces inflammation, and modulates gut microbiota in middle-aged female rats. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 22, 2021   
    Forty 12-month-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a high-fat and high-carbohydrate diet for 12 weeks including 0.5 g casein/kg body weight(BW)/day(Aged), 0.15 g SP plus 0.35 g casein/kg BW/day(Low-SP), 0.5 g SP/kg BW/day(High-SP), or 40 mg metformin plus 0.5 g casein/kg BW/day(Metformin)...In conclusion, SP intake protects against a decrease in lean body mass and grip strength in middle-aged female rats. The protection was partly related to maintaining higher serum concentrations of total amino acids after SP consumption and decreasing inflammation and insulin resistance through gut microbiota modulation.
