Age‐associated obesity and muscle atrophy (sarcopenia) are intimately connected and are
reciprocally regulated by adipose tissue and skeletal muscle dysfunction. During ageing …

Skeletal muscle fat infiltration (known as myosteatosis) is an ectopic fat depot that increases
with aging and is recognized to negatively correlate with muscle mass, strength, and mobility …

Low muscle mass and malnutrition are prevalent conditions among adults of all ages, with
any body weight or body mass index, and with acute or chronic conditions, including COVID …

Background The evidence that body composition parameters influence multiple cancer
outcomes is rapidly expanding. Excess adiposity deposits in muscle tissue, termed …

Myosteatosis, which is excessive fat infiltration in the skeletal muscle, is now considered a
distinct disease from sarcopenia. Advances in imaging technique have made muscle …

A growing body of scientific literature suggests that not only changes in skeletal muscle
mass, but also other factors underpinning muscle quality, play a role in the decline in …

The role of ectopic adipose tissue infiltration into skeletal muscle (ie, myosteatosis) for
metabolic disorders has received considerable and increasing attention in the last 10 years …

Background Myosteatosis has been reported to be a novel biomarker that could predict
survival outcomes in patients with colorectal cancer. However, results have been conflicting …

Aging is an inevitable and gradually progressive process affecting all organs and systems.
The musculoskeletal system makes no exception, elderly exhibit an increased risk of …

Although age-related changes in skeletal muscles are closely associated with decreases in
