Sarcopenia represents a muscle-wasting syndrome characterized by progressive and
generalized degenerative loss of skeletal muscle mass, quality, and strength occurring …

Aging causes skeletal muscle atrophy, and myofiber loss can be a critical component of this
process. In 1989, Rosenberg emphasized the importance of the loss of skeletal muscle …

Aging is associated with sarcopenia. The loss of strength results in decreased muscle mass
and motor function. This process accelerates the progressive muscle deterioration observed …

In addition to the role of skeletal muscle in movement and locomotion, muscle plays a critical
role in a broad array of metabolic processes that can contribute to improved health or risk of …

Sarcopenia involves a progressive age-related decline of skeletal muscle mass and
strength/function [1]. This muscle loss is associated with increased risk of adverse health …

Sarcopenia in geriatric patients is often associated with or even caused by changes of the
endocrine and nervous system. The multifactorial pathogenesis of sarcopenia and …

Human aging is characterized by skeletal muscle wasting, a debilitating condition which sets
the susceptibility for diseases that directly affect the quality of life and often limit life span …

The world's elderly population is expanding rapidly, and we are now faced with the
significant challenge of maintaining or improving physical activity, independence, and …

Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass, is a significant public health
concern that continues to grow in relevance as the population ages. Certain conditions have …

Summary According to European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP)
sarcopenia includes both a loss of muscle strength and a decline in functional quality in …
