Sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity
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...
متن کاملSarcopenic Obesity and Endocrinal Adaptation with Age
In normal aging, changes in the body composition occur that result in a shift toward decreased muscle mass and increased fat mass. The loss of muscle mass that occurs with aging is termed sarcopenia and is an important cause of frailty, disability, and loss of independence in older adults. Age-related changes in the body composition as well as the increased prevalence of obesity determine a com...
متن کاملSarcopenic Obesity and Cognitive Functioning: The Mediating Roles of Insulin Resistance and Inflammation?
This study examined the influence of insulin resistance and inflammation on the association between body composition and cognitive performance in older adults, aged 60-69 and aged 70 and older. Subjects included 1127 adults from NHANES 1999-2002. Body composition was categorized based on measurements of muscle mass and waist circumference as sarcopenic nonobese, nonsarcopenic obese, sarcopenic ...
متن کاملSarcopenic obesity: the confluence of two epidemics.
The two greatest epidemiological trends of our times are the aging of the population and the obesity epidemic (1). Each of these trends has important effects on body composition, morbidity, and mortality. Aging causes a progressive loss of muscle mass and strength, independent of any disease process, called sarcopenia, from the Greek for “poverty of flesh” (2). Sarcopenia is an important cause ...
متن کاملSarcopenic obesity and physical performance in middle aged women: a cross-sectional study in Northeast Brazil
BACKGROUND Sarcopenia and obesity have been independently associated with physical function decline, however little information is currently available on the relationship between sarcopenic obesity and physical performance, mainly in middle aged women. The present study aims to estimate the prevalence of sarcopenic obesity and to explore the relationship between sarcopenic obesity and physical ...
