Sarcopenia in hiding: The risk and consequence of underestimating muscle dysfunction in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.

TLDR
The complex inter‐relationships between sarcopenia and NASH is explored and viewing skeletal muscle as an endocrine organ that secretes various salutary myokines may help to understand its role in the development of steatosis.
