  • ||||||||||  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.
  • ||||||||||  Journal:  Cystathionine gamma-lyase/H S signaling facilitates myogenesis under aging and injury condition. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 22, 2021   
    MEF2c was S-sulfhydrated at both cysteine 361 and 420 in the C-terminal transactivation domain, and blockage of MEF2c S-sulfhydration abolished the stimulatory role of H S on MEF2c/MRF4 heterodimer formation. These findings support an essential role for H S in maintaining myogenesis, presenting it as a potential candidate for the prevention of age-related sarcopenia and treatment of muscle injury.
  • ||||||||||  Clinical, Review, Journal:  Optimizing Inpatient Nutrition Care of Adult Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in the 21st Century. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 22, 2021   
    Hospitalization can further compound pre-existing malnutrition through inappropriate diet restrictions, nil per os (NPO) for endoscopy and imaging, or partial bowel obstruction, resulting in "post-hospital syndrome" after discharge and readmission. The aim of this article is to inform clinicians of the prevalence and consequences of malnutrition in IBD, as well as available screening and assessment tools for diagnosis, and to offer an organized approach to the nutritional care of hospitalized adult IBD patients.
  • ||||||||||  Clinical, Observational data, Journal:  Nutritional Status of Non-Institutionalized Adults Aged over 65. Study of Weight and Health in Older Adults (PYSMA). (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 22, 2021   
    The aim of this article is to inform clinicians of the prevalence and consequences of malnutrition in IBD, as well as available screening and assessment tools for diagnosis, and to offer an organized approach to the nutritional care of hospitalized adult IBD patients. We identify the need to reinforce the messages to the elderly aimed at maintaining adequate physical activity and assessing the quality and quantity of dinners, as well as reducing, as much as possible, the treatments that may lead to weight gain.

Aims: To describe the concept of sarcopenia in chronic respiratory disease and its importance to maintain and/or optimise the benefits of pulmonary rehabilitation; to describe the assessment of sarcopenia in chronic respiratory disease; to describe how to implement and assess the treatment options for sarcopenia in chronic lung disease; to describe the effects of sarcopenia on patients undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation.
  • ||||||||||  Preclinical, Journal:  Long-term resveratrol treatment improves the capillarization in the skeletal muscles of ageing C57BL/6J mice. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 21, 2021   
    Our data show an inverse correlation between the number of capillaries per fibre (CAF) and TAs in both control and treated type IIB fibres, and an increase of CAF in ageing SKM upon RES-treatment. The present work suggests that capillarization is one of the determinants of the development of TAs and fatigue resistance, and that RES can be considered a good candidate to counteract capillary rarefaction in the SKM tissue.
  • ||||||||||  Clinical, Journal:  Mobility Impairment in Patients New to Dialysis. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 21, 2021   
    Older age, lower handgrip strength, and quality of life are risk factors for slowness. Patients at highest risk of poor gait speed can be identified at dialysis initiation to allow targeted implementation of therapeutic options.
  • ||||||||||  Journal:  Nutrition status mediates the association between cognitive decline and sarcopenia. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 21, 2021   
    These findings demonstrate that the negative effects of cognitive decline on sarcopenia were mediated by nutrition status. We therefore postulate that maintaining a good nutrition status delays the negative effects of cognitive decline on sarcopenia in older adults.
  • ||||||||||  Journal:  Late-onset neuromuscular disorders in the differential diagnosis of sarcopenia. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 21, 2021   
    In geriatric patients with a focal or asymmetrical muscular weakness and atrophy, sarcopenia assessment should be extended with patient's history of disease course. Furthermore, concomitant diseases, analysis of serum creatine kinase, electrophysiological examination, and in selected patients muscle biopsy and gene analysis is needed to rule out a late-onset neuromuscular disorder.

  • ||||||||||  Review, Journal:  Sarcopenia: What Is the Origin of This Aging-Induced Disorder? (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 20, 2021   
    We argue that preventive measures are likely to be more effective to counter act aging-induced disorders than efforts to treat manifest clinical conditions. To achieve compliance with a prescription of preventive measures that may be life-long, we need to identify reliable predictors to design rational and convincing interventions.
