Weight changes are also not clearly predictive of functional outcomes. In order to reach a definite conclusion, we need to have larger sample to determine whether weight loss after stroke is primarily due to muscle wasting, and to evaluate whether a functional correlation exists.
- |||||||||| Sarcopenia in postoperative period of gastrointestinal surgery: systematic review () - Feb 11, 2020 - Abstract #ISPRM2020ISPRM_1538;
Although mortality up to 3 months was not different between the groups, long term mortality was increased.Conclusions : Sarcopenia is an independent risk factor for increased mortality and morbidity in gastrointestinal surgery. This argues for implementing screening for sarcopenia when considering risk factors for surgery.

Imaging of the iliopsoas was only available at diagnosis. No significant change could be due to the initial high performance status of our sample, small sample size, or that sarcopenia occurs comorbidly with presentation.

However, there was no significant weight loss in the Debility patients n=27. Conclusions : There is significance in weight loss in both the Stroke and TBI patients which gives the opportunity to further assess the body composition changes after stroke.

- |||||||||| Journal: Chlorella vulgaris Improves the Regenerative Capacity of Young and Senescent Myoblasts and Promotes Muscle Regeneration. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 8, 2020
Treatment with C. vulgaris resulted in decreased SA-β-gal expression and promotion of myogenic differentiation, as observed via an increased fusion index, maturation index, myotube size, and surface area and an increased percentage of cells that stained positive for myogenin. In conclusion, C. vulgaris improves the regenerative capacity of young and senescent myoblasts and promotes myoblast differentiation, indicating its potential to promote muscle regeneration.

In conclusion, C. vulgaris improves the regenerative capacity of young and senescent myoblasts and promotes myoblast differentiation, indicating its potential to promote muscle regeneration. These results indicate that not only the past history of participation in physical and/or sports activities but also the current status of daily physical activity and sports activity plays an important role in maintaining appropriate SMI and AMM in young women.

- |||||||||| Journal: Nutritional value of dairy products and recommended daily consumption (Pubmed Central) - Feb 8, 2020
The latest studies support the need to have an adequate consumption in all stages of life due to its relationship with the prevention and control of chronic diseases. Dairy consumption is less than 2 servings / day in 37.1% of children and 42.3% of adults, so it would be desirable to improve this situation.

The main goal is to maintain the muscular integrity and minimize muscle loss in older adults. A healthy aging includes regular physical activity and the fulfillment of the protein requirements of this population.

The data can be valuable for modelling and extracting further information on how body composition, strength and performance affect each other over a long period of time. The data are analysed and interpreted in the research article RoyChoudhury et al., 2019.
- |||||||||| Clinical, Journal: The impact of frailty and sarcopenia on patient outcomes after complex spine surgery. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 7, 2020
Frailty and sarcopenia are increasingly recognized as important predictors of adverse outcomes after complex spine surgery. The optimal tool to measure frailty and sarcopenia in patients with spinal disorders remains unclear, and the role of surgery as an intervention to reverse frailty requires further investigation.
- |||||||||| Journal: Female dominant association of sarcopenia and physical frailty in mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 7, 2020
Physical dysfunctions, especially slow gait speed (3 m up and go test), were significantly associated with cognitive, affective, and ADL declines in participants (control subjects, MCI, and AD) of each gender, which were especially noticeable in females. The present study may be the first to suggest significant associations of sarcopenia and physical frailty with cognitive and affective functions of MCI and AD, especially in females.
- |||||||||| Clinical, Journal: Automatic Classification of Sarcopenia Level in Older Adults: A Case Study at Tijuana General Hospital. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 7, 2020
Feature selection determined by the mean for the variable ranking suggests that Age, Systolic Arterial Hypertension (HAS), Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), Number of chronic diseases (ECNumber), and Sodium are the five most important variables in determining the sarcopenia level, and are thus of great importance prior to establishing any treatment or preventive measure. Analysis of the relationships existing between the presence of the variables and classifiers used in moderate and severe sarcopenia revealed that the sarcopenia level using the RBF SVM classifier with Age, HAS, MNA, ECNumber, and Sodium variables has 82'5 accuracy, a 90'2 F1, and 82'8 precision.

In conclusion, ectopic fat accumulation at thigh measured by low SMD might be a sensitive indicator of presence of NAFLD in community-dwelling Korean adults, independent of muscle mass, visceral obesity, and insulin resistance. In individuals with NAFLD, lower SMD showed independent association with higher liver fibrosis score, suggesting close crosstalk in ectopic fat accumulation between skeletal muscle and liver.

The drugs of CS and GS groups are Chondroguard and Sustaguard Artro having the considerable evidence-based efficacy and safety and also a polymodality of effects in patients with a combination of osteoarthritis and socially important diseases (atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus type 2, oncological diseases) and also geriatric syndromes (sarcopenia) and aging in general.
- |||||||||| Journal: POEMS Syndrome: an Atypical Presentation with Chronic Diarrhoea and Asthenia. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 6, 2020
POEMS syndrome should be suspected in the presence of peripheral polyneuropathy associated with monoclonal gammopathy; diagnostic workup is challenging and delay in treatment is very common.Gastrointestinal involvement is not frequent and initial presentation with chronic diarrhoea is unusual and rarely mentioned in the literature.There is no consensus on the therapeutic approach, which can include autologous transplantation and chemotherapy. Frequently, these patients present fatigue, weight loss and sarcopenia with reduction of performance status, limiting subsequent therapeutic options.
