Associations Between Diabetes and Both Cardiovascular Disease and All-Cause Mortality Are Modified by Grip Strength: Evidence From UK Biobank, a Prospective Population-Based Cohort Study
Carlos Celis-Morales,Fanny Petermann,Li Hui,Donald M. Lyall,Stamatina Iliodromiti,James S. McLaren,Jana Anderson,Paul Welsh,Daniel F. Mackay,Jill P. Pell,Naveed Sattar,Jason M.R. Gill,Stuart R. Gray +12 more
TL;DR: Risk of adverse health outcomes among people with diabetes is lower in those with high grip strength, and low grip strength may be useful to identify a higher-risk subgroup of patients with diabetes.

Muscle grip strength predicts incident type 2 diabetes: Population-based cohort study
Joule J. Li,Gary A. Wittert,Andrew D. Vincent,Evan Atlantis,Zumin Shi,Sarah Appleton,Christopher Hill,Alicia J. Jenkins,Andrzej S. Januszewski,Robert J. Adams +9 more
TL;DR: Reduced muscle strength, but not reduced muscle mass, is a risk factor for incident type 2 diabetes in men, and intervention could prevent a substantial proportion of disease.

Exercise Programs for Muscle Mass, Muscle Strength and Physical Performance in Older Adults with Sarcopenia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
TL;DR: Exercise programs showed overall significant positive effects on muscle strength and physical performance but not on muscle mass in sarcopenic older adults.

Quadriceps Strength as a Predictor of Mortality in Coronary Artery Disease
Kentaro Kamiya,Takashi Masuda,Shinya Tanaka,Nobuaki Hamazaki,Yuya Matsue,Alessandro Mezzani,Ryota Matsuzawa,Kohei Nozaki,Emi Maekawa,Chiharu Noda,Minako Yamaoka-Tojo,Yasuo Arai,Atsuhiko Matsunaga,Tohru Izumi,Junya Ako +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the prognostic value of quadriceps isometric strength (QIS) in coronary artery disease (CAD) and found that a higher QIS was associated with decreased all-cause mortality and CV mortality risks.

TL;DR: The committee calls for specific studies aimed at understanding and preventing arterial disease and cardiac dysfunction, as well as decreasing cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and sarcopenic obesity) after HCT.

A Proportional Hazards Model for the Subdistribution of a Competing Risk
Jason P. Fine,Robert Gray +1 more
TL;DR: This article proposes methods for combining estimates of the cause-specific hazard functions under the proportional hazards formulation, but these methods do not allow the analyst to directly assess the effect of a covariate on the marginal probability function.

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic literature search was conducted for observational cohort studies using MEDLINE (1966 to December 31, 2008) and EMBASE (1980 to December 30, 2008), which reported associations of baseline cardiorespiratory fitness with CHD events, CVD events, or all-cause mortality in healthy participants.

A review of the measurement of grip strength in clinical and epidemiological studies: towards a standardised approach
Helen C. Roberts,Hayley J Denison,Helen J Martin,Harnish P. Patel,Holly E. Syddall,Cyrus Cooper,Avan Aihie Sayer +6 more
TL;DR: A standardised method of measuring grip strength would enable more consistent measurement of grip strength and better assessment of sarcopenia.

Strength, But Not Muscle Mass, Is Associated With Mortality in the Health, Aging and Body Composition Study Cohort
Anne B. Newman,Varant Kupelian,Marjolein Visser,Eleanor M. Simonsick,Bret H. Goodpaster,Stephen B. Kritchevsky,Frances A. Tylavsky,Susan M. Rubin,Tamara B. Harris +8 more
TL;DR: Low muscle mass did not explain the strong association of strength with mortality, demonstrating that muscle strength as a marker of muscle quality is more important than quantity in estimating mortality risk.
