Abstract
To improve and even reverse sarcopenia in elderly people, this study developed a self-determined sequence exercise program consisting of strength training exercise, Yijinjing exercise (a traditional Chinese exercise), and hybrid strength training with Yijinjing exercise. Ninety-four community-dwelling older adults screened for sarcopenia using the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia criteria were randomly assigned to 24 weeks of a control group (CG, n = 30), self-determined sequence exercise program group (SDSG, n = 34) or strength training group (STG, n = 30). The study examined the effects of three interventions on participantsL3 skeletal muscle fat density, L3 skeletal muscle fat area, L3 skeletal muscle density, L3 skeletal muscle area, muscle fat infiltration, relative skeletal muscle mass index, and grip strength using a repeated-measures ANOVA to evaluate the experimental data. To evaluate the real effect of this model in reversing sarcopenia after the intervention, nine classification models were trained. Significant interaction effects were observed with grip strength, RSMI, L3 SMD, and L3 SMA. At the 24th week, participants' grip strength, L3 SMFA, L3 SMA, and RSMI were improved significantly in the SDSG and STG. The SDSG achieved significantly greater RSMI and grip strength than the STG and CG after the intervention. The self-determined sequence exercise program exhibited better performance than the single type of exercise modality in reversing sarcopenia and improving older adults' skeletal muscle area. Consequently, the stacking model is feasible to make a prediction as to whether or not sarcopenia may be reversed in older adults.

Hybrid Exercise Program for Sarcopenia in Older Adults: The Effectiveness of Explainable Artificial Intelligence-Based Clinical Assistance in Assessing Skeletal Muscle Area. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19169952. [PMID: 36011588 PMCID: PMC9407935 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19169952] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2022] [Revised: 08/07/2022] [Accepted: 08/10/2022] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
Background: Sarcopenia is a geriatric syndrome characterized by decreased skeletal muscle mass and function with age. It is well-established that resistance exercise and Yi Jin Jing improve the skeletal muscle mass of older adults with sarcopenia. Accordingly, we designed an exercise program incorporating resistance exercise and Yi Jin Jing to increase skeletal muscle mass and reverse sarcopenia in older adults. Additionally, machine learning simulations were used to predict the sarcopenia status after the intervention. Method: This randomized controlled trial assessed the effects of sarcopenia in older adults. For 24 weeks, 90 older adults with sarcopenia were divided into intervention groups, including the Yi Jin Jing and resistance training group (YR, n = 30), the resistance training group (RT, n = 30), and the control group (CG, n = 30). Computed tomography (CT) scans of the abdomen were used to quantify the skeletal muscle cross-sectional area at the third lumbar vertebra (L3 SMA). Participants’ age, body mass, stature, and BMI characteristics were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and the chi-squared test for categorical data. This study explored the improvement effect of three interventions on participants’ L3 SMA, skeletal muscle density at the third lumbar vertebra (L3 SMD), skeletal muscle interstitial fat area at the third lumbar vertebra region of interest (L3 SMFA), skeletal muscle interstitial fat density at the third lumbar vertebra (L3 SMFD), relative skeletal muscle mass index (RSMI), muscle fat infiltration (MFI), and handgrip strength. Experimental data were analyzed using two-way repeated-measures ANOVA. Eleven machine learning models were trained and tested 100 times to assess the model’s performance in predicting whether sarcopenia could be reversed following the intervention. Results: There was a significant interaction in L3 SMA (p < 0.05), RSMI (p < 0.05), MFI (p < 0.05), and handgrip strength (p < 0.05). After the intervention, participants in the YR and RT groups showed significant improvements in L3 SMA, RSMI, and handgrip strength. Post hoc tests showed that the YR group (p < 0.05) yielded significantly better L3 SMA and RSMI than the RT group (p < 0.05) and CG group (p < 0.05) after the intervention. Compared with other models, the stacking model exhibits the best performance in terms of accuracy (85.7%) and F1 (75.3%). Conclusion: One hybrid exercise program with Yi Jin Jing and resistance exercise training can improve skeletal muscle area among older adults with sarcopenia. Accordingly, it is possible to predict whether sarcopenia can be reversed in older adults based on our stacking model.

Abstract
To date, family medicine and internal medicine fields have been responsible for defining, researching, and development of treatments for sarcopenia, focusing mainly on diabetes and metabolic diseases. Therefore, application of current guidelines for diagnosis of sarcopenia which differ according to continent to patients with hip fractures in the orthopedic field is difficult. The purpose of this review was to understand the recent consensus on the definition and diagnosis of sarcopenia and to highlight the importance of research and future research opportunities on the management of sarcopenia in patients with hip fractures by orthopedic surgeons. The global prevalence of sarcopenia in patients with hip fractures is statistically significant. Despite establishment of various therapeutic and diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis in the clinical field, there are no clear, useful diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia in the clinical field. In particular, few studies on the evaluation and treatment of sarcopenia in patients with hip fractures have been reported. In addition, the quality of life of postoperative patients with hip fractures could be significantly improved by development of precise assessment for muscle regeneration and rehabilitation in the operating room.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Loss of skeletal muscle mass and function (sarcopenia) is common in individuals with obesity due to metabolic changes associated with a sedentary lifestyle, adipose tissue derangements, comorbidities (acute and chronic diseases) and during the ageing process. Co-existence of excess adiposity and low muscle mass/function is referred to as sarcopenic obesity (SO), a condition increasingly recognized for its clinical and functional features that negatively influence important patient-centred outcomes. Effective prevention and treatment strategies for SO are urgently needed, but efforts are hampered by the lack of a universally established SO definition and diagnostic criteria. Resulting inconsistencies in the literature also negatively affect the ability to define prevalence as well as clinical relevance of SO for negative health outcomes. AIMS AND METHODS The European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) and the European Association for the Study of Obesity (EASO) launched an initiative to reach expert consensus on a definition and diagnostic criteria for SO. The jointly appointed international expert panel proposes that SO is defined as the co-existence of excess adiposity and low muscle mass/function. The diagnosis of SO should be considered in at-risk individuals who screen positive for a co-occurring elevated body mass index or waist circumference, and markers of low skeletal muscle mass and function (risk factors, clinical symptoms, or validated questionnaires). Diagnostic procedures should initially include assessment of skeletal muscle function, followed by assessment of body composition where presence of excess adiposity and low skeletal muscle mass or related body compartments confirm the diagnosis of SO. Individuals with SO should be further stratified into stage I in the absence of clinical complications or stage II if cases are associated with complications linked to altered body composition or skeletal muscle dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS ESPEN and EASO, as well as the expert international panel, advocate that the proposed SO definition and diagnostic criteria be implemented into routine clinical practice. The panel also encourages prospective studies in addition to secondary analysis of existing data sets, to study the predictive value, treatment efficacy and clinical impact of this SO definition.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the grip strength values obtained under 4 postures, and to identify the position providing the maximum grip strength value. We also explored the effects of different body positions on grip strength measurements and the significance of the selection of measurement position for guiding the screening and diagnosis of sarcopenia. METHODOLOGY A total of 764 people (409 males and 355 females) participated in this study. Grip strength was measured in 4 positions: (1) standing with the elbow fully extended; (2) standing with arms raised; (3) sitting with the elbow flexed 90°; and (4) sitting with the elbow extended. Multiple linear regression model was used to compare the grip strength measurements obtained from these 4 positions by each hand when considering the influence of age, gender, body mass index, and other factors. RESULTS Both male and female grip strength values in the standing position with the elbow fully extended were significantly greater than those in other positions. In addition, the grip strength measured by standing posture was generally greater than measured by sitting posture. In contrast, grip strength values in the 2 sitting positions did not differ significantly. The grip strength of men was generally greater than that of women. CONCLUSIONS The findings reveal that grip strength measured while standing with the elbow fully extended is greater than that measured while sitting, which is the posture currently recommended in clinical practice. Clinicians and researchers should choose the appropriate and optimal postures to measure grip strength.

Handgrip Strength in People With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Phys Ther 2021; 101:6131769. [PMID: 33561266 DOI: 10.1093/ptj/pzab057] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2020] [Revised: 11/20/2020] [Accepted: 12/31/2020] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to systematically review the association between handgrip strength (HGS) and mortality, morbidity, and health-related quality of life (HRQL) in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS The following databases were used: CENTRAL, CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE Ovid, SPORTDiscus, and PsycINFO. Studies published between 2000 and 2020 in English, Portuguese, or French that examined the association of HGS with mortality, morbidity, and HRQL in individuals with stable COPD were selected. Two authors independently extracted data and assessed the quality of evidence using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation framework. The study effects were pooled using random effects meta-analysis models after assessing heterogeneity. The search generated 710 studies, and 18 were included in the review. Studies evaluated a total of 12,046 individuals with stable COPD (mean percent of the predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second = 34%-80%) using over 10 diverse protocols for HGS measurement. Statistically significant, small, and negative relationships were found between HGS and mortality (r = -0.03; 95% CI = -0.05 to -0.02). Independent of the outcome measure used to assess morbidity, the estimate of the overall relationship was small to moderate and negative: Body Mass Index, Airflow Obstruction, Dyspnea, and Exercise Index Updated (r = -0.42; 95% CI = -0.61 to -0.03); exacerbations (r = -0.02; 95% CI = -0.04 to -0.00); and hospitalizations (r = -0.69; 95% CI = -1.70 to 0.32). Similarly, for HRQL, independent of the outcome measure, the estimate of the overall relationship was small to fair and negative: COPD Assessment Test (weighted r = -0.22; 95% CI = -0.32 to -0.12), Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire domains (-0.24 < r < -0.14), EuroQol Five-Dimension Questionnaire (utility score) (r = -0.17; 95% CI = -0.26 to -0.07), EuroQol Five-Dimension Questionnaire domains (-0.32 < r < -0.06), and St George Respiratory Questionnaire total (r = -0.26; 95% CI = -0.33 to -0.17). The quality of the evidence ranged from low to very low across outcomes. CONCLUSION Although heterogeneity was present among HGS measurement protocols, small to moderate associations were found, indicating that those with lower HGS have an increased likelihood of death, a higher risk of increased COPD morbidity (as assessed with Body Mass Index, Airflow Obstruction, Dyspnea and Exercise Capacity indexes), and poorer HRQL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) has the potential to gain global acceptance for diagnosing malnutrition. Of which, calf circumference (CC) was proposed as an alternative to evaluate the reduced muscle mass (RMM). The present study aimed to evaluate whether including the hand grip strength (HGS) was helpful for diagnosing malnutrition under the GLIM framework. METHODS We performed a multicenter, observational cohort study including 3998 patients with cancer at two teaching hospitals. The RMM criterion was separately assessed using the calf circumference (CC), or the CC and HGS combined. Accordingly, two methods of GLIM diagnosis were independently developed to determine the nutritional status of the patients. The diagnostic concordance, baseline characteristics, and outcomes of patients were compared across the malnourished-CC-HGS, malnourished-CC+HGS, and well-nourished groups. The Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) was used as a comparator to identify the optimal method. RESULTS Malnutrition was identified in 1120 (28%) patients by the CC method and 1060 (26.5%) patients by the CC+HGS method. Compared to the well-nourished group, the malnourished-CC+HGS group (60 patients, 1.5%) had poorer nutritional characteristics, poorer Karnofsky Performance Status scores, poorer global quality of life scores, and higher Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 scores. The severity of malnutrition diagnosed using the CC method (Kappa = 0.136) showed higher agreement with the PG-SGA than the CC+HGS method (Kappa = 0.127). CONCLUSION Compared to CC+HGS, the CC alone appears to be adequate to evaluate RMM under the GLIM framework. A simpler method might facilitate the application of these criteria in clinical settings by increasing efficacy and minimizing missed diagnoses.

Abstract
Objective: To determine frequency of Muscle Weakness in Non-Hypoxemic COPD out-patients and Comparison with age matched non-COPD Controls. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at OPD of Ojha Institute of Chest Diseases and Medicine, Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi, Pakistan, during the period 8th September 2019 till 30th May 2020. Patients of both genders aged 25-70 years who were satisfying GOLD criteria for COPD and having SpO2 ≥ 94% were included. An age matched control group was added as control. Hand Grip Strength (HGS) and Chair to Stand time (CST) were recorded. Results: Two hundred fifty-six patients were inducted with aged and BMI matched group of non-COPD Control patients in ratio of 1:2 (n = 128). Comparison of HGS between Control and COPD Groups showed significant weakness in COPD group. Significant weakness in lower limbs in COPD Group with longer timings to complete the task. Mean FEV1 had significant low values in COPD Group. Age correlated negatively with HGS & positively with CST. BMI correlated positively with FEV1 and CST but negatively with HGS. HGS correlated positively with FEV1 and no correlation was found with CST. No correlation was found of CST with FEV1. Conclusion: Muscle weakness in COPD patients was shown by simple validated bedside tools. The older COPD patients had less HGS and were slower in doing CST whereas those COPD ones who had higher FEV1 had more HGS.

Translation and validation of the Korean version of the Sarcopenia Quality of Life (SarQoL-K®) questionnaire and applicability with the SARC-F screening tool. Qual Life Res 2020; 30:603-611. [PMID: 32914375 DOI: 10.1007/s11136-020-02630-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 09/02/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this paper was to translate and validate into the Korea language and setting the Sarcopenia Quality of Life (SarQoL®) questionnaire. METHODS The participants consisted of 450 individuals in Namgaram-2 cohort who were followed up in 2019-2020. The study participants were divided into four groups: (1) SARC-F < 4, (2) SARC-F ≥ 4 and robust grip strength, (3) SARC-F ≥ 4, low grip strength, robust muscle mass, (4) SARC-F ≥ 4, low grip strength, and low muscle mass. To assess construct validity, population with sarcopenia-associated symptoms (SARC-F ≥ 4) apart from the Korean SarQoL (SarQoL-K®) completed the Korean versions of two generic questionnaires, the Short Form-36 and the EuroQoL 5-dimension. To validate the Korean SarQoL®, we assessed its validity (discriminative power, construct validity), reliability (internal consistency, test-retest reliability), and floor/ceiling effects. RESULTS The SarQoL-K® questionnaire was translated without major difficulties. The mean SarQoL-K scores were 72.9 (95%, CI; 71.2-74.6) in SARC-F < 4, 54.6 (95%, CI; 50.7-58.3) in SARC-F ≥ 4 and robust grip strength, 47.0 (95%, CI; 43.8-50.1) in SARC-F ≥ 4, low grip strength, robust muscle mass, 46.6 (95%, CI; 43.0-50.1) in SARC-F ≥ 4, low grip strength, and low muscle mass. The results indicated good discriminative power across each four groups (p < 0.001), high internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha of 0.866), and excellent test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.977, 95% CI 0.975-0.979). No floor- or ceiling-effects were observed. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to confirm the reliability and validity of the Korean version of the SarQoL®. We demonstrated that the population with sarcopenia-associated symptoms (determined using the SARC-F questionnaire) has a lower quality of life.

Abstract
Background Obesity is known as an important risk factor for colorectal adenoma. However, for the elderly with changes in body composition, reduced muscle, and increased fat, the body mass index (BMI), one of the most commonly used indicators of obesity, is limited in predicting a link to colorectal cancer. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between colorectal adenoma and grip strength that can predict muscle reduction in the elderly. Methods This study included 262 participants aged ≥65 years who underwent medical examination between June 2015 and August 2018. The control group comprised participants with normal findings or hyperplasia and other benign lesions, except adenoma on colonoscopy, whereas the adenoma group consisted of participants with more than one adenoma. Grip strength was alternately measured twice for each hand using a hydraulic dynamometer. Results The grip strength was statistically lower in the adenoma group than in the control group among women (P=0.042). For both sexes, grip strength was significantly lower in participants with ≥5 adenomas than in those with <5 adenomas (P=0.021, P=0.007). Similarly, men with large adenomas (≥7 mm) exhibited significantly lower grip strength than did those with small adenomas (<7 mm) (P=0.004). Even after correction for age, BMI, smoking status, alcohol consumption, exercise, insulin resistance, hypertension, and diabetes, the negative correlation between grip strength and number of adenomas among men and women remained (P=0.034, P=0.019). Conclusions A significant relationship between hand grip strength and number of colorectal adenomas was noted.
