Sleep Duration and Sarcopenia: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
In adults, short and long sleep duration has been associated with sarcopenia risk. Studies have shown that various factors, including biological and psychological factors, could be the underlying cause of the association between aberrant sleep duration and sarcopenia risk. In this study, we have qualitativ...

Sarcopenic Obesity and Risk of Disability in Community-Dwelling Japanese Older Adults: A 5-Year Longitudinal Study
Previous studies have indicated that sarcopenic obesity is a risk factor for disability onset. However, these studies had disparities in terms of criteria for sarcopenia, study design, or study population. No longitudinal study has investigated the effect of sarcopenic obesity on disability onset in an Asi...

A Nomogram for Optimizing Sarcopenia Screening in Community-dwelling Older Adults: AB3C Model
Sarcopenia is associated with significantly higher mortality risk, and earlier detection of sarcopenia has remarkable public health benefits. However, the model that predicts sarcopenia in the community has yet to be well identified. The study aimed to develop a nomogram for predicting the risk of sarcopen...

Diagnostic Value of Sarcopenia Computed Tomography Metrics for Older Patients with or without Cancers with Gastrointestinal Disorders
The diagnostic utility of poor body composition measures in sarcopenia remains unclear. We hypothesize that the skeletal muscle gauge [combination of skeletal muscle index (SMI) and skeletal muscle density (SMD); SMG = SMI × SMD] would have significant diagnostic and predictive value in certain muscle regi...

Grip Strength and Sarcopenia Predict 2-Year Cognitive Impairment in Community-Dwelling Older Adults
Using the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS2019) and the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP2) criteria, this study examined associations of sarcopenia and its components with specific domains of cognitive impairment over time.

Handgrip Measurement Method Affects Asymmetry but Not Weakness Identification in Community-Dwelling Older Adults
The Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) 2019 recommends different measurement protocols for handgrip strength (HGS). We aimed to explore (1) whether these protocols induce a significant difference in HGS; (2) whether these differences be clinically meaningful; and (3) whether these protocols affect t...
