TLDR
There is a substantial mismatch in sarcopenia case finding according to EWGSOP1 andEWGSOP2, and while the absolute number of women identified as sarcopenic remains relatively constant, the overlap of individual cases between the two definitions is low.Abstract:
INTRODUCTION we examined the consequences of applying the new EWGSOP2 algorithm for sarcopenia screening instead of the former EWGSOP algorithm (EWGSOP1) in geriatric inpatients. METHODS the dataset of our formerly published Sarcopenia in Geriatric Elderly (SAGE) study includes 144 geriatric inpatients (86 women, 58 men, mean age 80.7±5.6 years) with measurements of gait speed, handgrip strength and appendicular muscle mass by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). We analysed the agreement between EWGSOP and EWGSOP2 algorithms in identifying patients as sarcopenic/non-sarcopenic. Differences in the distribution sarcopenic vs. non-sarcopenic were assessed by Chi²-test. RESULTS sarcopenia prevalence according to EWGSOP1 (41 (27.7%)) was significantly higher than with EWGSOP2 (26(18.1%), p<0.05). The sex-specific sarcopenia prevalence was 22.1% (EWGSOP1) and 17.4% (EWGSOP2), respectively, for women (difference not significant) and 37.9% vs. 19.4% for men (p<0.05%). The overall agreement in classifying subjects as sarcopenic/non-sarcopenic was 81.25% (81.4% for women, 81.0% for men). However, among the 41 sarcopenia cases identified by EWGSOP1, only 20 (48.8%) were diagnosed with sarcopenia by EWGSOP2 (9/19 w (47.4%), 11/22 m (50.0%)). Ten of 19 women (52.6%) and 11 of 22 men (50.0%) diagnosed with sarcopenia by EWGSOP1 were missed by EWGSOP2, while 6 of 15 women (40.0%) and 0 of 11 men (0.0%) were newly diagnosed. DISCUSSION there is a substantial mismatch in sarcopenia case finding according to EWGSOP1 and EWGSOP2. The overall prevalence and the number of men diagnosed with sarcopenia are significantly lower in EWGSOP2. While the absolute number of women identified as sarcopenic remains relatively constant, the overlap of individual cases between the two definitions is low.read more

Summary comments
TL;DR: It is suggested here that there is no single formal strategy that must be used in order to achieve sustainability, and a range of built work for sustainable qualities is investigated.

Health outcomes of sarcopenia: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a systematic review to assess the short-, middle, and long-term consequences of sarcopenia, which showed a higher rate of mortality among sarcopenic subjects (pooled OR of 3.596 (95% CI 2.96-4.37)).

TL;DR: Age, women, lower education, higher deprivation, underweight, lower birth weight, and chronic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, chronic bronchitis and osteoporosis were associated with a higher likelihood of sarcopenia.

TL;DR: The prevalence of sarcopenia in males is significantly lower compared to the EWGSOP definition, whereas the prevalence among women is slightly higher, and the lower cut-off points for handgrip strength result in fewer adults being diagnosed with sarc Openia.

TL;DR: An emphasis is placed on low muscle strength as a key characteristic of sarcopenia, uses detection of low muscle quantity and quality to confirm the sarc Openia diagnosis, and provides clear cut-off points for measurements of variables that identify and characterise sarc openia.

TL;DR: Prevalence of sarcopenia is substantial in most geriatric settings, and well-designed, standardised studies evaluating exercise or nutrition interventions are needed before treatment guidelines can be developed.

TL;DR: Loss of leg MT in older adults is greater than muscle CSA loss, which suggests a decrease in MQ, and aging is associated with an increase in IMF regardless of changes in weight or SF.
