Y. Liao, Z. Peng, L. Chen, et al.Aging Dis. 2019;10(1):157-173 Whey protein and/or resistance training has shown promise in preventing and treating age-related sarcopenia. Sex hormones could be potential contributors for gender differences in skeletal muscle and age-related sarcopenia. In addition, skeletal muscle and the development of sarcopenia are influenced by gut microbiota. |
J. Wang, C.A. Maxwell, F. YuBiol Res Nurs. 2019;21(1):80-106 The objectives of this literature review were to (1) synthesize biological processes linked to frailty and their corresponding biomarkers and (2) identify potential associations among these processes and biomarkers. |
D.D. Huang, S.D. Fan, X.Y. Chen, et al.Exp Gerontol. 2019 Jan 25. pii: S0531-5565(18)30615-6. doi: 10.1016/j.exger.2019.01.022. [Epub ahead of print] Mitochondrial dysfunction during aging is a key factor that contributes to sarcopenia. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) has been increasingly recognized to regulate mitochondrial function. The present study aimed to investigate the role of Nrf2 in the development of frailty and sarcopenia during aging, and to demonstrate whether Nrf2 contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass and function by regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis and dynamics during the aging process. |
X. Hong, J. Yan, L. Xu, et al.Clin Interv Aging. 2019;14:105-111 The definition of frailty still lacks quantitative biomarkers. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between nutrition-related biomarkers and frailty in hospitalized older patients. |
Y.H. Kuo, T.F. Wang, L.K. Liu, et al.Am J Med Sci. 2019;357(2):124-133 Sarcopenia is a well-recognized geriatric syndrome. We sought to determine the prevalence of sarcopenia and factors associated with it among community-dwelling older adults in Taiwan. |
P. Soysal, E. Ates Bulut, I. Yavuz, et al.J Am Med Dir Assoc. 2019;20(1):58-63 The aim of this study is to demonstrate the ability of the basal metabolic rate (BMR) to detect frailty and sarcopenia in older males. |
