DOI: 10.1016/j.archger.2020.104268
Abstract: BACKGROUND Population aging has resulted in an increase in age-related conditions. Sarcopenia, the progressive loss of muscle mass and strength, and frailty, vulnerability to poor resolution of homeostasis after a stressor, are common causes of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.arr.2017.01.006
Abstract: Frailty is a common negative consequence of ageing. Sarcopenia, the syndrome of loss of muscle mass, quality and strength, is more common in older adults and has been considered a precursor syndrome or the physical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.arr.2021.101530
Abstract: BACKGROUND Physical frailty and sarcopenia show extensive clinical similarities. Whether biomarkers exist that are shared by the two conditions is presently unclear. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of cross-sectional and longitudinal studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.exger.2019.04.019
Abstract: BACKGROUND The construct of physical frailty and sarcopenia (PF&S) identifies an age-related pre-disability condition defined by reduced physical performance and low muscle mass. Whether PF&S is characterized by perturbations of the cytokine network is presently… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.exger.2021.111260
Abstract: BACKGROUND Physical frailty and sarcopenia (PF & S) are major public health problems in the older population and promising predictors of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. However, the underlying mechanisms linking physical frailty, sarcopenia and adverse cardiovascular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jamda.2022.03.013
Abstract: OBJECTIVES Sarcopenia and frailty have been shown separately to predict disability and death in old age. Our aim was to determine if sarcopenia may modify the prognosis of frailty regarding both mortality and disability, raising… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jgh.16035
Abstract: The majority of patients with decompensated cirrhosis suffer from malnutrition, a potentially modifiable contributor to frailty and sarcopenia. The present study investigated the impact of a 6‐month dietician‐supported home‐based intensive nutrition therapy (HINT) intervention on… read more here.
