Sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity
Open accessAbstract
The aging process is associated with progressive loss of muscle mass and strength, as well as decline in physical functioning. Although consensus diagnosis has not been reached, sarcopenia is increasingly defined by both loss of muscle mass and loss of muscle function or strength. The cause of sarcopenia is suggested as multifactorial, including hormonal changes, inflammatory pathway activation, fatty infiltration, poor nutrition, and decreased physical activity. Sarcopenia is often associated with visceral obesity. Sarcopenic obesity in the elderly impacts metabolic complications and represents a major public health challenge in a rapidly aging society. Further research about sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity may be needed to confront the influence of aging society in Korea.

Other hormones, including IGF-1, growth hormone, testosterone, and estrogen, regulate the anabolic and catabolic progressions in muscle.
“Other hormones, including insulin-like growth factors-1 (IGF-1), growth hormone, testosterone, and estrogen, also regulate the anabolic and catabolic progressions in muscle (46, 47).”

Testosterone and estrogen are essential for muscle health, but the production of these hormones decline naturally with aging.
“Moreover, testosterone and estrogen are essential for muscle health (47), but the production of these hormones decline naturally with aging.”

When muscle damage and obesity coexist, they act synergistically on the risk of mortality, metabolic disorders, and quality of life.
“Therefore, it is reasonable to speculate when muscle damage and obesity coexist, they act synergistically on the risk of mortality, metabolic disorders, and quality of life (47, 51).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
