Prediction of sarcopenia using a battery of circulating biomarkers
Abstract Loss of muscle mass and strength with aging, termed sarcopenia is accelerated in several comorbidities including chronic heart failure (CHF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). However, the effective circulating biomarkers to accurately diagnose and assess sarcopenia are not...

Abstract Loss of muscle mass and strength with aging, termed sarcopenia is accelerated in several comorbidities including chronic heart failure (CHF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD).

Sarcopenia was clinically identified based on hand-grip strength, appendicular skeletal muscle index and physical capacity as recommended by the European working group for sarcopenia.
