Cohort profile: the Taiwan Initiative for Geriatric Epidemiological Research - a prospective cohort study on cognition

Pei-Iun Hsieh, Te-Hsuan Huang, Jeng-Min Chiou, Jen-Hau Chen et al. • Epidemiology and Health (2024)

The Taiwan Initiative for Geriatric Epidemiological Research (TIGER) was founded in 2011 to elucidate the interrelationships among various predictors of global and domain-specific cognitive impairment, with the aim of identifying older adul...

Expert Consensus on Diagnosis and Management of Secondary Sarcopenia in Adults in Colombia: A Modified Delphi Study

Claudia Contreras, Diana Paola Córdoba‐Rodríguez, Robinson Cuadros, José Ricardo Jauregui et al. • JCSM Communications (2026)

ABSTRACT Background Secondary sarcopenia driven by chronic disease, acute illness, immobilization, malnutrition or treatment‐related factors contributes to functional decline, falls, disability, readmission and mortality. In Colombia, uneve...

Correlation between sarcopenia and changes in oligodendrocyte lineage cells in the brains of Alzheimer's disease model mice

Lin-lin Yao, Xiao-ting Ma, Fang-bo Li, Lin-yi Zheng et al. • Experimental Gerontology (2026)

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by cognitive dysfunction. The discovery and identification of non-cognitive symptoms in the preclinical stage hold promise for early diagnosis and ...

Predictivity of bioimpedance phase angle for incident disability in older adults

Kazuki Uemura, Takehiko Doi, Kota Tsutsumimoto, Sho Nakakubo et al. • Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle (2020)

Abstract Background Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)‐derived phase angle is expected to be an efficient prognostic marker of health adverse events with aging as an alternative of muscle mass. We aimed to examine the predictive ability...

Association of triglyceride glucose-body roundness index and body roundness index with incident sarcopenia among Chinese older adults: A nationwide cohort study

Yu -Yang Ma, Hai-Yan Li, Ruo-Nan Yao, Gong Cheng et al. • Experimental Gerontology (2025)

Background: The relationship between TyG-BRI, BRI, and the sarcopenia definition proposed by the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) in 2019 remains unclear. This research focused on exploring the relationship between the TyG-BRI inde...

Epidemiology and burden of osteoarthritis

Anna Litwic, Mark Hiley Edwards, Elaine Margaret Dennison, Cyrus C. Cooper • British Medical Bulletin (2013)

BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease involving the cartilage and many of its surrounding tissues. Disease progression is usually slow but can ultimately lead to joint failure with pain and disability. OA of the hi...

Improving Muscle Function Through a Multimodal Behavioural Intervention for Knee Osteoarthritis and Obesity: The POMELO Trial

Kristine Godziuk, Mary Forhan, Flavio T. Vieira, Joao F. Mota et al. • Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle (2025)

ABSTRACT Background Treatments aimed at improving physical function and body composition, including reducing fat mass (FM) and increasing muscle mass, may benefit individuals with advanced knee osteoarthritis (OA) and obesity. We investigat...

Segmentation of muscle tissue in computed tomography images at the level of the L3 vertebra

A. R. Teplyakova, R. V. Shershnev, S. O. Starkov, V. A. Kukarskaya • Научно-технический вестник информационных технологий, механики и оптики (2024)

With the increasing routine workload on radiologists associated with the need to analyze large numbers of images, there is a need to automate part of the analysis process. Sarcopenia is a condition in which there is a loss of muscle mass. T...

Association between myosteatosis and impaired glucose metabolism: A deep learning whole‐body magnetic resonance imaging population phenotyping approach

Matthias Jung, Hanna Rieder, Marco Reisert, Susanne Rospleszcz et al. • Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle (2024)

Abstract Background There is increasing evidence that myosteatosis, which is currently not assessed in clinical routine, plays an important role in risk estimation in individuals with impaired glucose metabolism, as it is associated with th...
