Abstract: We aimed to investigate cross-sectional associations between skeletal muscle density, a proxy measure for fatty infiltration into muscle, and cognition. Contributions from body fat mass, systemic inflammation and lifestyle were explored, as these factors have… read more here.

Abstract: BackgroundIn cancer patients with a poor prognosis, low skeletal muscle radiographic density is associated with higher mortality. Whether this association also holds for early-stage cancer is not very clear. We aimed to study the association… read more here.

Abstract: Intramuscular adiposity, which can be reflected by muscle computed tomography (CT) attenuation, may be a marker of sarcopenia. This study aimed to investigate muscle attenuation across the life course and thresholds of muscle attenuation for… read more here.

Abstract: Low body mass index (BMI) is a prognostic factor, and skeletal muscle adiposity may affect mortality irrespective of BMI in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the association between muscle adiposity and healthy… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2025.1676721
Abstract: Background The liver, skeletal muscle, and brain are interconnected through metabolic and endocrine pathways, constituting a systemic axis that may influence neurodegeneration. Although hepatic steatosis and sarcopenia have been independently associated with neurodegeneration, their integrated… read more here.
