Performance of the european working group on sarcopenia in older people algorithm in screening older adults for muscle mass assessment
Roberto Alves Lourenço,Mario Ulises Perez Zepeda,Luis Miguel Francisco Gutierrez Robledo,Francisco José García García,Leocadio Rodríguez-Mañas +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a screening and diagnostic algorithm was proposed by the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP), to assess the performance of the EWGSOP algorithm in determining the proportion of subjects suspected of having sarcopenia and selected to undergo subsequent muscle mass measurement.
Availability and use of dual energy X-rayabsorptiometry (DXA) and bio-impedance analysis (BIA)for the evaluation of sarcopenia by belgian and latin american geriatricians
Everardo Treviño Aguirre,Miriam Teresa Lopez Teros,Luis Miguel Francisco Gutierrez Robledo,Maurits Vandewoude,Mario Ulises Perez Zepeda +4 more
TL;DR: Evaluating the availability and use of dual energy X-ray absorptiometry and bio-impedance analysis in clinical practice of Belgian and Latin American geriatricians found that the use of BIA in the screening for sarcopenia was negligible and search for inexpensive and readily available detection tools should continue.

Clinically relevant weakness in diverse populations of older adults participating in the International Mobility in Aging Study
Juliana Fernandes de Souza Barbosa,Mario Ulises Perez Zepeda,François Béland,Jack M. Guralnik,Maria Victoria Zunzunegui,Ricardo Oliveira Guerra +5 more
TL;DR: The HGS cut points for weakness proposed by FNIH performed well in IMIAS populations, providing a useful tool for screening older adults at risk for functional problems.
Association of Fatigue with sarcopenia and its elements: a secondary analysis of SABE-Bogotá.
Daniela Patiño Hernández,David Gabriel David Pardo,Miguel Germán Borda,Mario Ulises Perez Zepeda,Carlos Alberto Cano Gutiérrez +4 more
TL;DR: Two of the sarcopenia-defining variables are associated with fatigue; this suggests that lack of sarc Openia does not exclude undesirable outcomes related to fatigue in aging adults and demonstrates that depression and fatigue are different concepts.
