Biomarkers associated with lower limb muscle function in individuals with sarcopenia: a systematic review
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle"
DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.13064
Abstract: Lower limb muscle dysfunction is a key driver for impaired physical capacity and frailty status, both characteristics of sarcopenia. Sarcopenia is the key pathway between frailty and disability. Identifying biological markers for early diagnosis, treatment,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2021.110599
Abstract: Amputation of a major limb, and the subsequent return to movement with a prosthesis, requires the development of compensatory strategies to account for the loss. Such strategies, over time, lead to regional muscle atrophy and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.mce.2021.111391
Abstract: Muscle mass is important for health. Decreased testicular androgen production (hypogonadism) contributes to the loss of muscle mass, with loss of limb muscle being particularly debilitating. Androgen replacement is the only treatment, which may not… read more here.
