[PMID: 38715745 PMCID: PMC11075762 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s462594] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective This bibliometric analysis and review aimed to examine the current research status and trends in the combination of nutrition and exercise training for sarcopenia. Additionally, it sought to provide researchers with future research directions in this field. Methods Relevant publications were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database, covering the period from January 1995 to October 2023. The collected publications were analyzed using CiteSpace, VOSviewer, Bibliometrix, and Review Manager. Results Out of the 2528 retrieved publications, the United States emerged as the leading contributor in terms of publication volume. The University of Texas System was identified as the most productive institution. Luc J C van Loon emerged as the most published author in this field. Analysis of keywords revealed recent hot topics and emerging areas of interest, such as "gut microbiota" and "mechanisms". Upon further evaluation, resistance training (RT) and protein supplementation were identified as the most commonly employed and effective methods. Conclusion RT and protein supplementation are widely recognized as effective strategies. Future research should focus on investigating the molecular aspects of sarcopenia. Moreover, the potential therapeutic role of gut microbiota in sarcopenia requires further comprehensive investigation in human subjects to establish its correlation.

Tack W, De Cock AM, Dirinck EL, Bastijns S, Ariën F, Perkisas S. Pathophysiological interactions between sarcopenia and type 2 diabetes: A two-way street influencing diagnosis and therapeutic options. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024; 26:407-416. [PMID: 37854007 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15321] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2023] [Revised: 09/24/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/20/2023]
Abstract
This review will try to elucidate the interconnected pathophysiology of sarcopenia and type 2 diabetes (T2D) and will try to identify a common pathway to explain their development. To this end, the PubMed and Scopus databases were searched for articles published about the underlying pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment of both sarcopenia and T2D. The medical subject heading (MeSH) terms 'sarcopenia' AND 'diabetes mellitus' AND ('physiopathology' OR 'diagnosis' OR 'therapeutics' OR 'aetiology' OR 'causality') were used. After screening, 32 papers were included. It was evident that sarcopenia and T2D share multiple pathophysiological mechanisms. Common changes in muscle architecture consist of a shift in myocyte composition, increased myosteatosis and a decreased capacity for muscle regeneration. Further, both diseases are linked to an imbalance in myokine and sex hormone production. Chronic low-grade inflammation and increased levels of oxidative stress are also known pathophysiological contributors. In the future, research efforts should be directed towards discovering common checkpoints in the development of T2D and sarcopenia as possible shared therapeutic targets for both diseases. Current treatment for T2D with biguanides, incretins and insulin may already convey a protective effect on the development of sarcopenia. Furthermore, attention should be given to early diagnosis of sarcopenia within the population of people with T2D, given the sizeable physical and medical burden it encompasses. A combination of simple diagnostic techniques could be used at regular diabetes check-ups to identify sarcopenia at an early stage and start lifestyle modifications and treatment as soon as possible.

Abstract
Today, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and skeletal muscle atrophy (SMA) have become increasingly common occurrences. Whether the onset of T2DM increases the risk of SMA or vice versa has long been under investigation. Both conditions are associated with negative changes in skeletal muscle health, which can, in turn, lead to impaired physical function, a lowered quality of life, and an increased risk of mortality. Poor nutrition can exacerbate both T2DM and SMA. T2DM and SMA are linked by a vicious cycle of events that reinforce and worsen each other. Muscle insulin resistance appears to be the pathophysiological link between T2DM and SMA. To explore this association, our review (i) compiles evidence on the clinical association between T2DM and SMA, (ii) reviews mechanisms underlying biochemical changes in the muscles of people with or at risk of T2DM and SMA, and (iii) examines how nutritional therapy and increased physical activity as muscle-targeted treatments benefit this population. Based on the evidence, we conclude that effective treatment of patients with T2DM-SMA depends on the restoration and maintenance of muscle mass. We thus propose that regular intake of key functional nutrients, along with guidance for physical activity, can help maintain euglycemia and improve muscle status in all patients with T2DM and SMA.

Establishing reference values for percentage of appendicular skeletal muscle mass and their association with metabolic syndrome in Korean adolescents. Ann Pediatr Endocrinol Metab 2023; 28:237-244. [PMID: 37139682 PMCID: PMC10765024 DOI: 10.6065/apem.2244268.134] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2022] [Revised: 02/24/2023] [Accepted: 04/20/2023] [Indexed: 05/05/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The association between appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) and cardiometabolic risk has been emphasized. We estimated reference values of the percentage of ASM (PASM) and investigated their association with metabolic syndrome (MS) in Korean adolescents. METHODS Data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey performed between 2009 and 2011 were used. Tables and graphs of reference PASM were generated using 1,522 subjects, 807 of whom were boys aged 10 to 18. The relationship between PASM and each component of MS in adolescents was further analyzed in 1,174 subjects, 613 of whom were boys. Moreover, the pediatric simple MS score (PsiMS), the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), and the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index were analyzed. Multivariate linear and logistic regressions adjusting for age, sex, household income, and daily energy intake were performed. RESULTS In boys, PASM increased with age; the trend was different in girls, in whom PASM declined with age. PsiMS, HOMA-IR, and TyG index showed inverse associations with PASM (PsiMS, β=-0.105, P<0.001; HOMA-IR, β=-0.104, P<0.001; and TyG index, β=-0.013, P<0.001). PASM z-score was negatively associated with obesity (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.22; 95% CI, 0.17-0.30), abdominal obesity (aOR, 0.27; 95% CI, 0.20-0.36), hypertension (aOR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.52-0.80), and elevated triglycerides (aOR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.56-0.79). CONCLUSION The probability of acquiring MS and insulin resistance decreased as PASM values increased. The reference range may offer clinicians information to aid in the effective management of patients. We urge clinicians to monitor body composition using standard reference databases.

Sarcopenia in a type 2 diabetic state: Reviewing literature on the pathological consequences of oxidative stress and inflammation beyond the neutralizing effect of intracellular antioxidants.

Abstract
Sarcopenia remains one of the major pathological features of type 2 diabetes (T2D), especially in older individuals. This condition describes gradual loss of muscle mass, strength, and function that reduces the overall vitality and fitness, leading to increased hospitalizations and even fatalities to those affected. Preclinical evidence indicates that dysregulated mitochondrial dynamics, together with impaired activity of the NADPH oxidase system, are the major sources of oxidative stress that drive skeletal muscle damage in T2D. While patients with T2D also display relatively higher levels of circulating inflammatory markers in the serum, including high sensitivity-C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α that are independently linked with the deterioration of muscle function and sarcopenia in T2D. In fact, beyond reporting on the pathological consequences of both oxidative stress and inflammation, the current review highlights the importance of strengthening intracellular antioxidant systems to preserve muscle mass, strength, and function in individuals with T2D.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetes mellitus (DM) and sarcopenia (SP) are growing public health concerns in an aging society, which share common pathophysiological mechanisms and are associated with serious health consequences. We investigated the impact of DM and SP on all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities in a longitudinal nationwide population-based study. METHODS The study analyzed data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey conducted between 2008 and 2011, including information on appendicular skeletal muscle mass data. Mortality data up to December 2020 were retrieved from the National Death Registry. RESULTS Among the 17,920 participants, 14,737 (82.2 %) had neither DM nor SP (DM-/SP-), 1349 (7.5 %) had only DM (DM+/SP-), 1425 (8.0 %) had only SP (DM-/SP+), and 409 (2.3 %) had both DM and SP (DM+/SP+). Compared to the DM-/SP- group, the DM-/SP+ and DM+/SP+ groups demonstrated increased all-cause mortality with adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) of 1.47 (95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.14-1.89) and 1.85 (95 % CI: 1.28-2.69), respectively, while the DM+/SP- group did not (HR 1.29, 95 % CI: 0.97-1.74). The DM+/SP+ group demonstrated the highest risk of overall mortality (p-for-trend <0.001). Compared to the DM-/SP- group, only the DM+/SP+ group demonstrated increased cardiovascular mortality with HRs of 2.10 (95 % CI: 1.11-4.00) while the DM+/SP- (HR 1.35, 95 % CI: 0.79-2.30) and DM-/SP+ (HR 1.42, 95 % CI: 0.84-2.43) groups did not. CONCLUSIONS The coexistence of DM and SP additively increased the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Individuals with either disease may require more careful management to prevent the development of the other disease to reduce mortality.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and sarcopenia (low skeletal muscle mass and function) share a bidirectional relationship. The prevalence of these diseases increases with age and they share common risk factors. Skeletal muscle fat infiltration, commonly referred to as myosteatosis, may be a major contributor to both T2DM and sarcopenia in older adults via independent effects on insulin resistance and muscle health. Many strategies to manage T2DM result in energy restriction and subsequent weight loss, and this can lead to significant declines in muscle mass in the absence of resistance exercise, which is also a first-line treatment for sarcopenia. In this review, we highlight recent evidence on established treatments and emerging therapies targeting weight loss and muscle mass and function improvements in older adults with, or at risk of, T2DM and/or sarcopenia. This includes dietary, physical activity and exercise interventions, new generation incretin-based agonists and myostatin-based antagonists, and endoscopic bariatric therapies. We also highlight how digital health technologies and health literacy interventions can increase uptake of, and adherence to, established and emerging treatments and therapies in older adults with T2DM and/or sarcopenia.

Abstract
AIMS The association between skeletal muscle mass and diabetes incidence/insulin resistance/glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate such association in clinically apparently healthy males and females. METHODS A cross-sectional study of 372,399 Korean males and females who completed bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) in a health-screening programme was performed. Skeletal muscle index was used as an indicator of skeletal muscle mass. Skeletal muscle index (%) [appendicular skeletal muscle mass (kg)/body weight (kg)X100] was estimated using BIA. The study outcomes were diabetes incidence, homoeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), and HbA1C. RESULTS The mean age of study participants was 38.92 ± 8.54 years. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed a significant negative association between Skeletal muscle index and diabetes incidence/HOMA-IR/HbA1C after adjusting for various confounding factors. Odds ratios (95% confidence interval (CI)) of diabetes incidence in Q2, Q3, and Q4 compared to the lowest quantile (Q1) were 0.95 (0.85-1.05), 0.88 (0.78-0.99), and 0.79 (0.69-0.9), respectively. Beta coefficients (95% CI) of HOMA-IR in Q2, Q3, and Q3 with Q1 were 0.05 (0.03-0.07), -0.06 (-0.09∼-0.04), and -0.19 (-0.22∼-0.16), respectively. Beta coefficients (95% CI) of HbA1C in Q2, Q3, and Q4 with Q1 were 0.02 (0.01-0.03), -0.001 (-0.01∼0.01), and -0.02 (-0.03∼-0.01), respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated negative associations of skeletal muscle mass with diabetes incidence, insulin resistance, and HbA1C levels in healthy adults.

Causal associations of sarcopenia-related traits with cardiometabolic disease and Alzheimer's disease and the mediating role of insulin resistance: A Mendelian randomization study. Aging Cell 2023; 22:e13923. [PMID: 37403750 PMCID: PMC10497819 DOI: 10.1111/acel.13923] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2023] [Revised: 06/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The causal influence of sarcopenia on cardiometabolic disease and Alzheimer's disease and whether and to what extent insulin resistance plays a mediating role therein were unclear. We performed two-step, two-sample Mendelian randomization applying genetic instruments of sarcopenia-related traits based on GWASs from the UK Biobank (up to 461,026 European participants) to examine their causal associations with six cardiometabolic diseases and Alzheimer's disease extracted from large-scale European descent GWASs with adjustment for body fat percentage and physical activity, and to assess proportions of the causal effects mediated by insulin resistance. Genetic instruments of insulin resistance were derived from the GWASs by Meta-Analyses of Glucose and Insulin-related traits Consortium and Global Lipids Genetics Consortium. Each 1-SD lower grip strength, appendicular lean mass (ALM) and whole-body lean mass (WBLM), as well as lower walking pace, were causally associated with higher risks of diabetes (odds ratio [OR] range: 1.20 [95% confidence interval: 1.10-1.32] for ALM to 2.30 [1.14-4.68] for walking pace), nonalcoholic fatty liver disease ([NAFLD], 1.33 [1.08-1.64] for ALM to 2.30 [1.02-5.18] for grip strength), hypertension (1.12 [1.05-1.20] for ALM to 4.43 [2.68-7.33] for walking pace), coronary heart disease ([CHD], 1.20 [1.13-1.27] for ALM to 2.73 [1.84-4.05] for walking pace), myocardial infarction ([MI], 1.18 [1.11-1.25] for ALM to 2.47 [1.63-3.73] for walking pace), small vessel stroke (1.25 [1.15-1.37] for ALM to 1.29 [1.10-1.52] for WBLM), and Alzheimer's disease (1.10 [1.05-1.15] for ALM to 1.28 [1.19-1.38] for WBLM). These causal associations were largely independent of body fat percentage and physical activity. Insulin resistance mediated 16%-34% of the effect of grip strength and 7%-28% of the effect of ALM on diabetes, NAFLD, hypertension, CHD, and MI. The direct effect of WBLM on diabetes diminished toward null with adjustment for insulin resistance. We found no evidence that insulin resistance was on the causal pathways from walking pace to the studied disease outcomes. Causal findings from the inverse-variance weighted method were validated by sensitivity analyses. These findings support improving sarcopenia-related traits as precautions against major cardiometabolic diseases and Alzheimer's disease, with particular emphasis on insulin resistance as a target in the intervention of sarcopenia-related cardiometabolic risk.

Abstract
AIMS Sarcopenia generally refers to the age-related reduction in muscle strength, functional ability, and muscle mass. Sarcopenia is a multifactorial condition associated with poor glucose disposal, insulin resistance, and subsequently type 2 diabetes (T2D). The pathophysiological connection between sarcopenia and T2D is complex but likely involves glycemic control, inflammation, oxidative stress, and adiposity. METHODS AND RESULTS Resistance exercise and aerobic training are two lifestyle interventions that may improve glycemic control in older adults with T2D and counteract sarcopenia. Further, there is evidence that dietary protein, Omega-3 fatty acids, creatine monohydrate, and Vitamin D hold potential to augment some of these benefits from exercise. CONCLUSIONS The purpose of this narrative review is: (1) discuss the pathophysiological link between age-related sarcopenia and T2D, and (2) discuss lifestyle interventions involving physical activity and nutrition that may counteract sarcopenia and T2D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to explore the association between skeletal muscle mass and cardiovascular events, and its additional value on the assessment of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) over traditional risk scores. METHODS The study included 1365 community-based participants aged over 50 years and free of CVDs at baseline. Participants completed detailed assessments at baseline and received a follow-up assessment in 2021-2022 via phone calls or electronic medical records. Skeletal muscle mass was measured using an automatic bioelectric analyzer. Predicted probabilities of 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk were estimated individually with the China-PAR equation. RESULTS After a mean follow-up of 7.6 years, 144 cardiovascular events were identified. The fully-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) of cardiovascular events were 0.93 (0.88-0.98) and 1.08 (1.04-1.12) for skeletal muscle mass and predicted 10-year risk, respectively. Among participants over 60 years and with two or more risk factors, cardiovascular events risk increased progressively with each decreasing skeletal muscle tertile. Receiver operating characteristic curves showed that the C-statistic of predicting cardiovascular events for a 10-year risk assessment was slightly increased after adding skeletal muscle mass. The categorical net reclassification improvement (NRI) showed a 56.7% increase in the reclassification. The continuous NRI and integrated discrimination improvement increased as well. CONCLUSION Participants with low skeletal muscle mass were more likely to have cardiovascular events. Low muscle mass improved the predictive power of CVD incidence over the original risk score, indicating that muscle mass could be a valuable parameter and a declining value needed early detection in the population.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1203666. [PMID: 37465122 PMCID: PMC10351980 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1203666] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective Sarcopenia has been recognized as the third category of disabling complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM), in addition to micro- and macrovascular complications. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are innovative glucose-lowering treatments that have been shown to reduce body weight and enhance cardiovascular and renal outcomes. However, there is vigilance that SGLT2 inhibitors should be taken cautiously because they target skeletal muscle and may raise the risk of sarcopenia. Herein, we conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to evaluate the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on sarcopenia in patients with T2DM. Method Relevant studies were obtained from PubMed, Embase, Medicine, Cochrane, and Web of Science databases to determine eligible studies until February 2023, without any language restrictions. A random effects model was utilized irrespective of heterogeneity, and the I2 statistic was used to evaluate study heterogeneity. The differences in results were measured using the weighted average difference (WMD) of the continuous data, along with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Results A total of 25 randomized controlled trials with 2,286 participants were included. SGLT2 inhibitors significantly reduced weight-related changes and fat-related changes, including body weight(BW) (WMD= -2.74, 95% CI: -3.26 to -2.23, P<0.01), body mass index(BMI) (WMD= -0.72, 95% CI: -0.95 to -0.49, P<0.01), waist circumference(WC) (WMD= -1.60, 95% CI: -2.99 to -0.22, P=0.02), fat mass(FM)(WMD= -1.49, 95% CI: -2.18 to -0.80, P<0.01), percentage body fat(PBF) (WMD= -1.28, 95% CI: -1.83 to -0.74, P<0.01), visceral fat area(VFA)(WMD= -19.52, 95% CI: -25.90 to -13.14, P<0.01), subcutaneous fat area(SFA)(WMD= -19.11, 95% CI: -31.18 to -7.03, P=0.002), In terms of muscle-related changes, lean mass(LM)(WMD= -0.80, 95% CI: -1.43 to -0.16, P=0.01), and skeletal muscle mass(SMM) (WMD= -0.38, 95% CI: -0.65 to -0.10, P=0.007), skeletal muscle index(SMI) (WMD= -0.12, 95% CI: -0.22 to -0.02, P=0.02)were also significantly reduced. In addition, body water likewise decreased significantly (WMD=-0.96, 95% CI: -1.68 to -0.23, P=0.009). Conclusions As one of the most widely used hypoglycemic, SGLT2 inhibitors have beneficial effects on FM and BW weight loss in T2DM, such as BW, BMI, WC, FM, PBF, VFA, and SFA. However, the negative influence on muscle mass paralleled the reduction in FM and BW, and the consequent increased risk of sarcopenia warrants high attention, especially as patients are already predisposed to physical frailty.

Low appendicular skeletal muscle index increases the risk of carotid artery plaque in postmenopausal women with and without hypertension/hyperglycemia: a retrospective study. BMC Geriatr 2023; 23:379. [PMID: 37340377 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-023-04076-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 05/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate whether the low appendicular skeletal muscle index (ASMI) is closely associated with the risk of carotid artery plaque (CAP) in postmenopausal women with and without hypertension/hyperglycemia stratified by body mass index (BMI) categories. METHODS A total of 2048 Chinese postmenopausal women aged 40-88 years were eventually enrolled in this retrospective study. Skeletal muscle mass was estimated by using segmental multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis. ASMI was defined as follows: appendicular skeletal muscle mass(kg)/[height(m)]2. CAP was assessed by B-mode ultrasound. We explored the association between ASMI quartiles or low skeletal muscle mass and the risk of CAP by using multivariate-adjusted logistic regression models. A potential nonlinear relationship was also tested using restricted cubic spline regression. RESULTS CAP was observed in 289/1074 (26.9%) normal-weight and 319/974 (32.8%) overweight/obese postmenopausal women. Individuals with CAP had significantly lower ASMI values than those without (P < 0.001). The ASMI value also showed a linear relationship with the CAP risk in postmenopausal women stratified by BMI category (Pfor non-linearity > 0.05). In comparison with the highest ASMI quartile, the lowest ASMI quartile was significantly associated with a high risk of CAP development in non-hypertensive individuals with normal weight (odds ratio [OR] = 2.43; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.44 ~ 4.12) or overweight/obesity (OR = 4.82, 95% CI: 2.79 ~ 8.33), hypertensive individuals with normal weight (OR = 5.90, 95% CI: 1.46 ~ 11.49) or overweight/obesity (OR = 7.63, 95% CI: 1.62 ~ 35.86), non-hyperglycemic individuals with normal weight (OR = 2.61, 95% CI: 1.54 ~ 4.43) or overweight/obesity (OR = 2.94, 95% CI: 1.84 ~ 4.70), and hyperglycemic individuals with normal weight (OR = 6.66, 95% CI: 1.08 ~ 41.10) or overweight/obesity (OR = 8.11, 95% CI: 2.69 ~ 24.49). Moreover, low skeletal muscle was independently associated with the risk of CAP in postmenopausal women, regardless of the BMI category. CONCLUSION ASMI was inversely associated with the risk of CAP development in postmenopausal women, especially in patients with high blood sugar and/or hypertension, indicating that skeletal muscle mass maintenance may contribute to prevention of CAP in postmenopausal women.

Abstract
Aging is characterized by the gradual deterioration of function at the molecular, cellular, tissue, and organism levels in humans. The typical diseases caused by changes in body composition, as well as functional decline in the human body’s organs due to aging include sarcopenia and metabolic disorders. The accumulation of dysfunctional aging β cells with age can cause decreased glucose tolerance and diabetes. Muscle decline has a multifactorial origin, involving lifestyle habits, disease triggers, and age-dependent biological changes. The reduced function of β cells in elderly people lowers insulin sensitivity, which affects protein synthesis and interferes with muscle synthesis. The functional decrease and aggravation of disease in elderly people with less regular exercise or physical activity causes imbalances in food intake and a continuous, vicious cycle. In contrast, resistance exercise increases the function of β cells and protein synthesis in elderly people. In this review, we discuss regular physical activities or exercises to prevent and improve health, which is sarcopenia as decreased muscle mass and metabolic disorders as diabetes in the elderly.

Abstract
Recent research has revealed causes other than aging that may induce sarcopenia in young people, contrary to the long-studied age-dependent reduction in muscular mass and function. The risk of sarcopenia begins in early adulthood, resulting in exaggerated muscle dysfunction in later life. Despite its clinical significance, research on youth-onset sarcopenia is still in its infancy. Due to a paucity of epidemiologic data and standardized criteria for sarcopenia in youth, determining the prevalence of sarcopenia in the young population remains challenging. Based on the evidence, >1 in every 10 young adults of most ethnicities is estimated to have sarcopenia. This review summarizes the possible etiologies of sarcopenia in young populations, including metabolic syndrome, physical inactivity, inadequate nutrition, inherent and perinatal factors, vitamin D deficiency, endocrinopathy, an imbalance of gut microbiota, neuromuscular diseases, organ failure, malignancy, and other inflammatory disorders. This is the first review of the current knowledge on the importance, prevalence, diagnosis, and causes of sarcopenia in youth.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recent studies suggested that sarcopenia may be a significant comorbidity of diabetes mellitus (DM). Nonetheless, studies with nationally representative data are scarce, and the changing trend of sarcopenia prevalence over time is largely unknown. Therefore, we aimed to estimate and compare the prevalence of sarcopenia in diabetic and nondiabetic US older population, and to explore the potential predictors of sarcopenia as well as the trend of sarcopenia prevalent in the past decades. METHODS Data were retrieved from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Sarcopenia and DM were defined according to corresponding diagnosis criteria. Weighted prevalence was calculated and compared between diabetic and nondiabetic participants. The differences among age and ethnicity groups were explored. RESULTS A total of 6,381 US adults (>50 years) were involved. The overall prevalence of sarcopenia was 17.8% for US elders, and the prevalence was higher (27.9% vs. 15.7%) in those with diabetes ones than those without. Stepwise regression revealed that sarcopenia was significantly associated with DM (adjusted odds ratio = 1.37, 95% CI: 1.08-1.22; p < 0.05) after controlling for potential confounders including gender, age, ethnicity, educational level, BMI, and muscle strengthening activity. A slight fluctuation but overall increasing trend of sarcopenia prevalence was observed among diabetic elders, while no obvious changing trend was observed in their counterparts in recent decades. CONCLUSION Diabetic US older adults face significantly higher risk of sarcopenia when compared with their nondiabetic counterparts. Gender, age, ethnicity, educational level, and obesity were important influencing factors of sarcopenia development.

Clin Endocrinol (Oxf) 2023; 98:587-602. [PMID: 36585396 DOI: 10.1111/cen.14874] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Revised: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the associations between endogenous testosterone blood concentrations and muscle mass, strength and performance in community dwelling women. DESIGN, PATIENTS AND MEASUREMENTS: Online databases, including Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE and Web of Science, were searched for observational studies, with at least 100 female participants, reporting associations between endogenous testosterone blood concentrations and muscle mass, strength and performance. The findings were synthesized in a narrative review. Heterogeneity in study design and analysis precluded a meta-analysis. RESULTS Of the 36 articles retrieved for full-text review, 10 met the inclusion criteria. Eight studies were cross-sectional, 1 longitudinal and 1 provided both cross-sectional and longitudinal data. Testosterone was measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry in two studies and by immunoassay in 8. An association between total testosterone and muscle mass, strength or performance in women was not found. The studies of calculated free or bioavailable testosterone and lean muscle mass reported a positive association, but no association was reported for muscle strength or performance. Each included study was limited by a high risk of bias in at least one assessed domain. CONCLUSIONS This review does not support an association between testosterone and muscle mass, strength or performance in women. This, together with the reported associations between free or bioavailable testosterone and muscle mass should be interpreted cautiously due to the predominant use of immunoassay and the inaccuracy of calculated variables. Additionally, biological significance of nonprotein bound testosterone has not been established. Further studies examining the relationship between precisely measured testosterone and muscle mass and function in women are required.

[PMID: 36945053 PMCID: PMC10031974 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-023-01027-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/11/2023] [Indexed: 03/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Low muscle mass likely results in reduced capacity for glucose disposal, leading to a significant but under-appreciated contribution to increasing the risk of diabetes. But few prospective studies have investigated the association between the loss of muscle mass and the occurrence of diabetes. We aimed to investigate whether short-term changes in muscle mass affect the incidence of diabetes in a Chinese population. METHODS This study included 1275 individuals without evident diabetes at baseline. In the baseline and re-examination, individuals completed the risk factors survey and underwent body composition measurement. Muscle mass index was defined as the percentage skeletal muscle mass, which was measured by an automatic bioelectric analyzer. RESULTS After a median follow-up of 2.1 years, 142 individuals developed diabetes (11.1%). There was an inverse association between basal skeletal muscle mass index and the risk of diabetes in participants with impaired glucose regulation but not in those with normal glucose tolerance. Multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios for the risk of developing diabetes were 0.85 (95% CI: 0.74-0.98) and 1.15 (95% CI: 0.98-1.34), respectively. Furthermore, Cox regression analysis revealed that a two-year change in skeletal muscle mass was also inversely associated with the incidence of diabetes in both participants with normal glucose tolerance and with impaired glucose regulation (HR: 0.76, 95% CI: 0.65-0.89; HR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.71-0.91). CONCLUSIONS These findings emphasized the importance of early detection and control of muscle mass loss for the prevention of diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients often suffer from sarcopenia, which is strongly associated with their long-term mortality. The diagnosis and treatment of sarcopenia, especially possible sarcopenia for MHD patients are of great importance. This study aims to use machine learning and medical data to develop two simple sarcopenia identification assistant tools for MHD patients and focuses on sex specificity. METHODS Data were retrospectively collected from patients undergoing MHD and included patients' basic information, body measurement results and laboratory findings. The 2019 consensus update by Asian working group for sarcopenia was used to assess whether a MHD patient had sarcopenia. Finally, 140 male (58 with possible sarcopenia or sarcopenia) and 102 female (65 with possible sarcopenia or sarcopenia) patients' data were collected. Participants were divided into sarcopenia and control groups for each sex to develop binary classifiers. After statistical analysis and feature selection, stratified shuffle split and Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique were conducted and voting classifiers were developed. RESULTS After eliminating handgrip strength, 6-m walk, and skeletal muscle index, the best three features for sarcopenia identification of male patients are age, fasting blood glucose, and parathyroid hormone. Meanwhile, age, arm without vascular access, total bilirubin, and post-dialysis creatinine are the best four features for females. After abandoning models with overfitting or bad performance, voting classifiers achieved good sarcopenia classification performance for both sexes (For males: sensitivity: 77.50% ± 11.21%, specificity: 83.13% ± 9.70%, F1 score: 77.32% ± 5.36%, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC): 87.40% ± 4.41%. For females: sensitivity: 76.15% ± 13.95%, specificity: 71.25% ± 15.86%, F1 score: 78.04% ± 8.85%, AUC: 77.69% ± 7.92%). CONCLUSIONS Two simple sex-specific sarcopenia identification tools for MHD patients were developed. They performed well on the case finding of sarcopenia, especially possible sarcopenia.

Type 2 Diabetes Related Mitochondrial Defects in Peripheral Mononucleated Blood Cells from Overweight Postmenopausal Women. Biomedicines 2023; 11:biomedicines11010121. [PMID: 36672627 PMCID: PMC9855941 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11010121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Revised: 12/24/2022] [Accepted: 12/30/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a multisystem disease that is the subject of many studies, but the earliest cause of the disease has yet to be elucidated. Mitochondrial impairment has been associated with diabetes in several tissues. To extend the association between T2D and mitochondrial impairment to blood cells, we investigated T2D-related changes in peripheral mononucleated blood cells’ (PBMCs) mitochondrial function in two groups of women (CTRL vs. T2D; mean age: 54.1 ± 3.8 vs. 60.9 ± 4.8; mean BMI 25.6 ± 5.2 vs. 30.0 ± 5), together with a panel of blood biomarkers, anthropometric measurements and physiological parameters (VO2max and strength tests). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan analysis, cardio-pulmonary exercise test and blood biomarkers confirmed hallmarks of diabetes in the T2D group. Mitochondrial function assays performed with high resolution respirometry highlighted a significant reduction of mitochondrial respiration in the ADP-stimulated state (OXPHOS; −30%, p = 0.006) and maximal non-coupled respiration (ET; −30%, p = 0.004) in PBMCs samples from the T2D group. The total glutathione antioxidant pool (GSHt) was significantly reduced (−38%: p = 0.04) in plasma samples from the T2D group. The fraction of glycated hemoglobin (Hb1Ac) was positively associated with markers of inflammation (C-reactive protein-CRP r = 0.618; p = 0.006) and of dyslipidemia (triglycerides-TG r = 0.815; p < 0.0001). The same marker (Hb1Ac) was negatively associated with mitochondrial activity levels (OXPHOS r = −0.502; p = 0.034; ET r = −0.529; p = 0.024). The results obtained in overweight postmenopausal women from analysis of PBMCs mitochondrial respiration and their association with anthropometric and physiological parameters indicate that PBMC could represent a reliable model for studying T2D-related metabolic impairment and could be useful for testing the effectiveness of interventions targeting mitochondria.

Abstract
Vitamin D insufficiency is a global health concern and low vitamin D status is regularly associated with reduced muscle mass and sarcopenia in observational research. Recent research using Mendelian randomization (MR) has highlighted the potentially causal positive effect of serum vitamin D (25(OH)D) on total, trunk and upper body appendicular fat-free mass (FFM). However, no such effect was found in lower body FFM, a result that mirrors the outcomes of some vitamin D intervention studies. Here we review the current literature on vitamin D, muscle mass and strength and discuss some potential mechanisms for the differing effects of vitamin D on upper and lower body FFM. In particular, differences in distribution of the vitamin D receptor as well as androgen receptors, in the upper and lower body musculature, will be discussed.

Abstract
Aims To assess the association of rectus femoris mass index (RFMI) with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods Totally 948 T2DM cases were enrolled. Nerve conduction parameters, quantitative sensory threshold and rectus femoris cross-sectional area (RFCSA) were obtained, and rectus femoris mass index (RFMI=RFCSA/height2) was derived. The patients were assigned to four groups based on interquartile spacing of RFMI. Results Motor/sensory nerve amplitude and conduction velocity (CV) were significantly lower in the low-level RFMI groups (all P<0.05). RFMI was positively associated with mean motor/sensory nerve amplitude and CV (both P<0.05). T2DM duration above 10 years and RFMI below 2.37cm²/m² had significant associations with DPN (both P<0.001). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis demonstrated cutoffs for T2DM duration and RFMI of 7 years and 2.2 cm²/m², respectively (AUC=0.75, 95% CI: 0.72-0.79; sensitivity, 68.4%; specificity, 66.8%). Conclusion DPN is significantly associated with reduced RFMI in T2DM patients. Decreased muscle mass seems to be associated with motor/sensory nerve amplitude and CV. RFMI combined with T2DM duration may represent a potent tool for predicting DPN occurrence in T2DM cases. Clinical trial registration http://www.chictr.org.cn, identifier ChiCTR2100049150.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the association between body fat (BF%) and sarcopenia in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and potential link with increased levels of inflammatory indicators and insulin resistance. METHODS A total of 543 older adults with T2DM were included in this cross-sectional study. Appendicular skeletal muscle (ASM), handgrip strength and gait speed were measured to diagnose sarcopenia according to the updated Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) 2019 criteria. Body composition data were tested using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Levels of serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6, fasting blood insulin (FINS), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH) D3] were also determined. RESULTS The prevalence of sarcopenia in all participants was 8.84%, of which 11.90% were male and 5.84% females. The Pearson's correlation analysis revealed that BF% was negatively correlated with gait speed in men and women (R =-0.195, P=0.001; R = -0.136, P =0.025, respectively). After adjusting for all potential confounders, sarcopenia was positive associated with BF% (male, OR: 1.38, 95% CI: 1.15-1.65, P< 0.001; female, OR: 1.30, 95% CI: 1.07-1.56, P=0.007), and negatively associated with body mass index (BMI) (male, OR: 0.57, 95% CI: 0.44-0.73, P<0.001; female, OR: 0.48, 95% CI: 0.33-0.70, P<0.001). No significant differences were found in hs-CRP, interleukin-6, and insulin resistance between older T2DM adults with and without sarcopenia. CONCLUSION Higher BF% was linked to an increased risk of sarcopenia in older adults with T2DM, suggesting the importance of assessing BF% rather than BMI alone to manage sarcopenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), common in older people, is an important reason for muscle loss in Japanese and Taiwanese populations. However, little is known about the association between lifestyle behaviours and muscle quality. We aimed to compare the lifestyle behaviours of Japanese and Taiwanese older adults with T2DM and to the identify lifestyle factors associated with muscle quality. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted among community-dwelling individuals with T2DM aged ≥65 years in Taiwan and Japan. Totally, 114 Japanese and 226 Taiwanese participants were enrolled in the study. Outcomes were measured by blood biochemical examinations, body composition analyses and structured self-reported questionnaires to assess lifestyle behaviours and muscle quality. Linear regression models were used to examine the relationship between lifestyle factors and muscle quality using SPSS version 27.0 with a statistical significance level of P < 0.05. RESULTS Japanese subjects were more likely to be smokers and alcohol consumers, and they were less likely to have well-balanced diets and engage in more physical activity as compared to Taiwanese subjects. The muscle quality in the Japanese subjects was significantly poorer than that in the Taiwanese subjects. Physical activity, dietary habits and smoking were associated with muscle quality, after adjusting for age, gender and body mass index. CONCLUSIONS Physical activity of insufficient intensity, unhealthy dietary habits and smoking could be risk factors for poor muscle quality. These findings can contribute to the development of effective strategies to improve muscle quality in community-dwelling older Asian people with T2DM.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle is a massive insulin-sensitive tissue in the body. Loss of muscle mass is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, and is often a result of diabetes. Insulin deficiency or insulin resistance can only be seen as reduced skeletal muscle mass. Diabetes is caused by insulin deficiency or insulin resistance; however, insulin resistance is not unique to diabetics. Insulin resistance also exists in many diseases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sarcopenia is defined as a progressive and generalized muscle disorder that involves accelerated loss of muscle mass and impaired function. It is believed to influence the ability to carry out daily activities, muscle strength, and physical capacity in the elderly. Studies have shown that sarcopenia has been implicated as both a cause and a consequence of diabetes mellitus. In this analysis, we aimed to systematically show the impact of exercise intervention as a therapy for patients with diabetes mellitus and sarcopenia. METHODS Electronic databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane database, were searched from November to December 2021 for publications based on exercise intervention in patients with sarcopenia. After the selection of studies for this analysis, patients with diabetes mellitus were retrieved. Since dichotomous data including mean and standard deviation were reported, weighted mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used to represent the data following analysis. RESULTS A total of 431 participants with diabetes mellitus and sarcopenia were included in this meta-analysis. A statistical analysis was carried out on patients with diabetes mellitus who were assigned to the exercise intervention group. Our analysis showed that "sit-to-stand test" and "timed up and go" were significantly in favor of exercise intervention: MD -1.57, 95% confidence interval (CI) -2.26 to -0.87 (P = 0.0001) versus MD -0.61, 95% CI -1.21 to -0.01 (P = 0.05), respectively. Handgrip strength, walking speed and leg strength were also assessed. Another statistical analysis was carried out, this time on patients with diabetes mellitus and sarcopenia who were not assigned to an exercise intervention. The results showed no significant difference among sit-to-stand test, timed up and go, handgrip strength, and leg strength. CONCLUSION Exercise intervention significantly improved the time taken to stand up from a sitting position, and to "stand up and go" in patients with diabetes mellitus and sarcopenia. Therefore, exercise intervention should be considered a relevant therapy for such patients.

Abstract
With a graying population and increasing longevity, it is essential to identify life transition in later years and discern heterogeneity among older people. Subclassifying the elderly population to inspect the subdivisions for pathophysiological differences is particularly important for the investigation of age-related illnesses. For this purpose, using 24- and 28-month-old mice to represent the "young-old" and "old-old", respectively, we compared their skeletal muscle transcriptomes and found each in a distinct stage: early/gradual (E-aging) and late/accelerated aging phase (L-aging). Principal component analysis showed that the old-old transcriptomes were largely disengaged from the forward transcriptomic trajectory generated in the younger-aged group, indicating a substantial change in gene expression profiles during L-aging. By calculating the transcriptomic distance, it was found that the 28-month group was closer to the two-month group than to the 24-month group. The divergence rate per month for the transcriptomes was the highest in L-aging, twice as fast as the rate in E-aging. Indeed, many of the L-aging genes were significantly altered in transcription, although the changes did not seem random but rather coordinated in a variety of functional gene sets. Of 2,707 genes transcriptionally altered during E-aging, two-thirds were also significantly changed during L-aging, to either downturning or upturning way. The downturn genes were related to mitochondrial function and translational gene sets, while the upturn genes were linked to inflammation-associated gene sets. Our results provide a transcriptomic muscle signature that distinguishes old-old mice from young-old mice. This can help to methodically examine muscle disorders in the elderly.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to explore the relationship between lower-limb muscle mass/visceral fat area and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) progression in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS A total of 879 participants with T2DM were divided into 4 groups according to the prognosis of CKD classification from Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO). Rectus femoris cross-sectional area (RFCSA) was measured through ultrasound, and visceral fat area (VFA) was evaluated with bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA). RESULTS T2DM patients with high to very high prognostic risk of DKD showed a reduced RFCSA (male P < 0.001; female P < 0.05), and an enlarged VFA (male P < 0.05; female P < 0.05). The prognostic risk of DKD was negatively correlated with RFCSA (P < 0.05), but positively correlated with VFA (P < 0.05). Receiver-operating characteristic analysis revealed that the cutoff points of T2DM duration combined with RFCSA and VFA were as follows: (male: 7 years, 6.60 cm2, and 111 cm2; AUC = 0.82; 95% CI: 0.78-0.88; sensitivity, 78.0%; specificity, 68.6%, P < 0.001) (female: 9 years, 5.05 cm2, and 91 cm2; AUC = 0.73; 95% CI: 0.66-0.81; sensitivity, 73.9%; specificity, 63.3%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION A significant association was demonstrated between reduced RFCSA/increased VFA and high- to very high-prognostic risk of DKD. T2DM duration, RFCSA, and VFA may be valuable markers of DKD progression in patients with T2DM. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION http://www.chictr.org.cn, identifier ChiCTR2100042214.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Studies have shown that sex differences in lean mass, concentrations of sex hormones, and lifestyles influence cle health and glucose metabolism. We evaluated the sex-specific association between low muscle mass and glucose fluctuations in hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) receiving continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) therapy. METHODS A total of 1084 participants were included. Body composition was determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Intraday blood glucose fluctuation was estimated by the Largest amplitude of glycemic excursions (LAGE) and standard deviation of blood glucose (SDBG). RESULTS The prevalence of low muscle mass was higher in males than in females (p<0.001). There was a significant sex-specific interaction between the status of low muscle mass and glucose fluctuations (LAGE and SDBG) (p for interaction=0.025 and 0.036 for SDBG and LAGE, respectively). Among males, low muscle mass was significantly associated with a higher LAGE and SDBG (difference in LAGE: 2.26 [95% CI: 1.01 to 3.51], p < 0.001; difference in SDBG: 0.45 [95% CI: 0.25 to 0.65], p < 0.001) after adjustment for HbA1c, diabetes duration, hyperlipidemia, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy, and cardiovascular disease. These associations remained significant after further adjustment for age and C-peptide. Among females, low muscle mass was not associated with LAGE or SDBG after adjustment for all covariates. CONCLUSION The prevalence of low muscle mass was higher in males than in females. Low muscle mass was significantly associated with higher LAGE and SDBG among males, but not females.

Abstract
PURPOSE Low serum vitamin D status has been associated with reduced muscle mass in observational studies although the relationship is controversial and a causal association cannot be determined from such observations. Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) was applied to assess the association between serum vitamin D (25(OH)D) and total, trunk, arm and leg fat-free mass (FFM). METHODS MR was implemented using summary-level data from the largest genome-wide association studies (GWAS) on vitamin D (n=73,699) and total, trunk, arm and leg FFM. Inverse variance weighted method (IVW) was used to estimate the causal estimates. Weighted median (WM)-based method, and MR-Egger, leave-one-out were applied as sensitivity analysis. RESULTS Genetically higher serum 25(OH)D levels had a positive effect on total (IVW = Beta: 0.042, p = 0.038), trunk (IVW = Beta: 0.045, p = 0.023) and arm (right arm IVW = Beta: 0.044, p = 0.002; left arm IVW = Beta: 0.05, p = 0.005) FFM. However, the association with leg FFM was not significant (right leg IVW = Beta: 0.03, p = 0.238; left leg IVW = Beta: 0.039, p = 0.100). The likelihood of heterogeneity and pleiotropy was determined to be low (statistically non-significant), and the observed associations were not driven by single SNPs. Furthermore, MR pleiotropy residual sum and outlier test did not highlight any outliers. CONCLUSIONS Our results illustrate the potentially causal, positive effect of serum 25(OH)D concentration on total, trunk and upper body appendicular fat-free mass.

Sports Med 2021; 52:463-479.

Abstract
Resistance training (RT) is the only non-pharmacological intervention known to consistently improve, and therefore offset age-related declines in, skeletal muscle mass, strength, and power. RT is also associated with various health benefits that are underappreciated compared with the perceived benefits of aerobic-based exercise. For example, RT participation is associated with reduced all-cause and cancer-related mortality and reduced incidence of cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and symptoms of both anxiety and depression. Despite these benefits, participation in RT remains low, likely due to numerous factors including time constraints, a high-perceived difficulty, and limited access to facilities and equipment. Identification of RT strategies that limit barriers to participation may increase engagement in RT and subsequently improve population health outcomes. Across the lifespan, declines in strength and power occur up to eight times faster than the loss of muscle mass, and are more strongly associated with functional impairments and risks of morbidity and mortality. Strategies to maximise healthspan should therefore arguably focus more on improving or maintaining muscle strength and power than on increasing muscle mass per se. Accumulating evidence suggests that minimal doses of RT, characterised by lower session volumes than in traditional RT guidelines, together with either (1) higher training intensities/loads performed at lower frequencies (i.e. low-volume, high-load RT) or (2) lower training intensities/loads performed at higher frequencies and with minimal-to-no equipment (i.e. resistance 'exercise snacking'), can improve strength and functional ability in younger and older adults. Such minimal-dose approaches to RT have the potential to minimise various barriers to participation, and may have positive implications for the feasibility and scalability of RT. In addition, brief but frequent minimal-dose RT approaches (i.e. resistance 'exercise snacking') may provide additional benefits for interrupting sedentary behaviour patterns associated with increased cardiometabolic risk. Compared to traditional approaches, minimal-dose RT may also limit negative affective responses, such as increased discomfort and lowered enjoyment, both of which are associated with higher training volumes and may negatively influence exercise adherence. A number of practical factors, including the selection of exercises that target major muscle groups and challenge both balance and the stabilising musculature, may influence the effectiveness of minimal-dose RT on outcomes such as improved independence and quality-of-life in older adults. This narrative review aims to summarise the evidence for minimal-dose RT as a strategy for preserving muscle strength and functional ability across the lifespan, and to discuss practical models and considerations for the application of minimal-dose RT approaches.

Abstract
Organophosphate is a commonly used pesticide in the agricultural sector. The main action of organophosphate focuses on acetylcholinesterase inhibition, and it therefore contributes to acute cholinergic crisis, intermediate syndrome and delayed neurotoxicity. From sporadic case series to epidemiologic studies, organophosphate has been linked to hyperglycemia and the occurrence of new-onset diabetes mellitus. Organophosphate-mediated direct damage to pancreatic beta cells, insulin resistance related to systemic inflammation and excessive hepatic gluconeogenesis and polymorphisms of the enzyme governing organophosphate elimination are all possible contributors to the development of new-onset diabetes mellitus. To date, a preventive strategy for organophosphate-mediated new-onset diabetes mellitus is still lacking. However, lowering reactive oxygen species levels may be a practical method to reduce the risk of developing hyperglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS In this study, we examined the relationships of appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) and grip strength (GS) with carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and plaque score (PS) in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 1185 patients were recruited. High CIMT and high PS were defined as ≥ 75 percentile of maximal CIMT of each sex and PS ≥ 3. Patients in the lowest ASM/body mass index (BMI) or GS/BMI tertile were older and had lower HDL cholesterol, and eGFR, but higher BMI, waist circumference (WC), HOMA-IR, and C-reactive protein than those in the highest tertile. Meanwhile, individuals in the lowest ASM or GS tertile group had lower BMI and WC than those in the highest one. CIMT and PS and the prevalence of high CIMT, carotid plaques, and high PS gradually increased with decreasing tertiles of ASM, ASM/BMI, GS, and GS/BMI (p < 0.001). After adjusting for age and sex, odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for high CIMT and high PS were 0.98 (0.68-1.42), 1.64 (1.14-2.36), 2.000 (1.33-3.01), and 1.77 (1.22-2.58) and 1.63 (1.16-2.30), 1.78 (1.28-2.54), 1.91 (1.33-2.75), and 1.61 (1.13-2.28) in the lowest tertile of ASM, ASM/BMI, GS, and GS/BMI, respectively. After further adjusting for potential confounders, ORs and 95% CI for high CIMT and high PS remained significant in the lowest tertile group. CONCLUSIONS Low ASM and low GS may be independent risk factors for high CIMT and high PS in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic illness associated with resistance to or defective insulin secretion. This study investigates the effects of thermotherapy on cell viability, gene expression and inflammation in skeletal muscle cell lines. METHODS Healthy and T2D human skeletal muscle cell lines (HSMM and D-HSMM, respectively) were subjected to acute or chronic thermo-therapy (AT or CT, respectively). CT consisted of a 30 min exposure to 40 °C, three times a week for three weeks; AT was a one-time exposure. RESULTS A significant decrease in D-HSMM cell viability percentage followed AT; however, no significant change occurred in CT. HSMM yielded the highest elevations of genes following CT. In D-HSMM, both treatments yielded gene upregulation. Both treatments significantly down-regulated IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α in HSMM. AT significantly decreased IL-1β, IL-6 and upregulated IL-10 and TNF-α levels in D-HSMM, while CT yielded a reduction in IL-4, TNF-α and an upregulation of IL-6 and IL-10. CONCLUSIONS An increase in gene expression indicates actin activity and cellular responses, suggesting an increase in transcriptional regulation. The upregulation of IL-6 and IL-10 in D-HSMM negatively correlated with a decrease in TNF-α and IL-1β, indicating improved adverse inflammatory effects associated with the disease.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels with associated disordered carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) specifically has been shown to cause a decrease in skeletal muscle mass due to oxidative stress. This study investigated a treatment option for T2D through thermotherapy on healthy (HSMM) and T2D (D-HSMM) human skeletal muscle cells. The goals were to determine the effects of thermotherapy, long-term (chronic) and short-term (acute), on HSMM and D-HSMM cell viabilities and oxidative stress. HSMM and D-HSMM cells were grown to confluency, harvested, and counted to determine density. Acute and chronic heat treatments were applied to both cell lines. The chronic treatment consisted of a 30-minute exposure to 40°C, three times a week for three weeks; the acute treatment was a one-time exposure. Oxidative stress assays and cell viabilities were tested 24 hours after heat treatments. Results indicated no significant effect on the cell viability of HSMM and D-HSMM cells. The acute treatment had a significant increase (p ≤ 0.05) of MDA concentration compared to the chronic treatment. The chronic treatment had a significant increase (p ≤ 0.05) in catalase activity compared to the acute treatment. The SOD activity had no significant change (p > 0.05) between the chronic and acute treatments. In conclusion, acute thermotherapy may not be beneficial for skeletal muscle cells due to the observed increase in oxidative stress, especially in the D-HSMM cells.

Low prealbumin levels are associated with sarcopenia in older men with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A cross-sectional study. Nutrition 2021; 91-92:111415. [PMID: 34399401 DOI: 10.1016/j.nut.2021.111415] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2021] [Revised: 06/20/2021] [Accepted: 06/28/2021] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between the serum levels of prealbumin and sarcopenia in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 582 older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Sarcopenia was defined based on the recently updated Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019 criteria. Appendicular skeletal muscle was measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. Serum levels of prealbumin, hemoglobin, hemoglobin A1c, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 were also tested. Multivariate analyses were used to assess the association between prealbumin levels and sarcopenia, adjusted for potential confounders. RESULTS The overall prevalence of sarcopenia was 9%, of which 12% for men and 6% for women. Male participants with sarcopenia had lower prealbumin levels than those without sarcopenia (213 ± 72 versus 260 ± 56 mg/L, P < 0.001). The proportion of men with low prealbumin level (<170 mg/L) was significantly higher in individuals with sarcopenia than in those without (31% versus 6%, respectively). In a logistic regression model, after adjusting for all potential covariates, low prealbumin (odds ratio, 4.15; 95% confidence interval, 1.13-15.25; P = 0.03) was significantly associated with sarcopenia in men, but the relationship between prealbumin and sarcopenia was not found in women. CONCLUSION Low prealbumin levels were associated with an increased risk for sarcopenia in older men with T2DM.

Sarcopenia and Appendicular Muscle Mass as Predictors of Impaired Fasting Glucose/Type 2 Diabetes in Elderly Women. Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13061909. [PMID: 34199375 PMCID: PMC8227668 DOI: 10.3390/nu13061909] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2021] [Revised: 05/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/29/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Elderly women exhibit a high risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but no definitive data exist about the possible role of postmenopausal increases in visceral adiposity, the loss of lean body mass, or decreases in the sum of the lean mass of arms and legs (appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASMM)). This retrospective, longitudinal study investigated whether body composition (bioelectrical impedance analysis) predicted the development of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) or T2D in a cohort of 159 elderly women (age: 71 ± 5 years, follow-up: 94 months) from southern Italy (Clinical Nutrition and Geriatric Units of the “Mater Domini” University Hospital in Catanzaro, Calabria region, and the “P. Giaccone ”University Hospital in Palermo, Sicily region). Sarcopenia was defined in a subgroup of 128 women according to the EWGSOP criteria as the presence of low muscle strength (handgrip strength <16 kg) plus low muscle mass (reported as appendicular skeletal muscle mass <15 kg). Participants with a low ASMM had a higher IFG/T2D incidence than those with a normal ASMM (17% vs. 6%, p-adjusted = 0.044); this finding was independent of BMI, fat mass, waist circumference, and habitual fat intake (OR = 3.81, p = 0.034). A higher incidence of IFG/T2D was observed in the subgroup with sarcopenia than those without sarcopenia (33% vs. 7%, p-adjusted = 0.005) independent of BMI and fat mass (OR = 6.75, p = 0.007). In conclusion, this study demonstrates that elderly women with low ASMM had a higher probability of developing IFG/T2D. Further studies are needed to confirm these results in men and in other age groups.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This work aims to estimate the prevalence of sarcopenia and to investigate the association between sarcopenia and functional performance in patients with and without diabetes admitted for inpatient rehabilitation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Consecutive patients admitted to the subacute inpatient rehabilitation unit at St Vincent's Hospital Melbourne, Australia (November 2016 to March 2020) were prospectively recruited into this cross-sectional study. Sarcopenia was diagnosed using the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People 2018 algorithm. Participants' functional performance was measured by the total Functional Independence Measure, motor Functional Independence Measure, and the Short Physical Performance Battery. The association between sarcopenia and functional performance was investigated using quantile regression. RESULTS Of 300 participants, 49 (16%) had a history of diabetes and 44 (14.7%) were diagnosed with sarcopenia. No significant difference in the prevalence of sarcopenia between patients with or without diabetes was identified (11/49, 22.5% vs 33/251, 13.2%, P = .12). In patients with diabetes, those with sarcopenia had significantly reduced functional performance compared to those without sarcopenia on Functional Independence Measure, motor Functional Independence Measure, and the Short Physical Performance Battery, whereas in patients without diabetes no significant difference between patients with and without sarcopenia were identified for either functional performance measure (all P values for interaction < .005). CONCLUSIONS The diagnosis of sarcopenia was associated with a reduced functional performance on admission to inpatient rehabilitation in patients with diabetes, but not in those without diabetes. Further investigation is needed into the progress of patients with dual diagnoses of diabetes and sarcopenia in inpatient rehabilitation.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic is an extraordinary global emergency that has led to the implementation of unprecedented measures in order to stem the spread of the infection. Internationally, governments are enforcing measures such as travel bans, quarantine, isolation, and social distancing leading to an extended period of time at home. This has resulted in reductions in physical activity and changes in dietary intakes that have the potential to accelerate sarcopenia, a deterioration of muscle mass and function (more likely in older populations), as well as increases in body fat. These changes in body composition are associated with a number of chronic, lifestyle diseases including cardiovascular disease (CVD), diabetes, osteoporosis, frailty, cognitive decline, and depression. Furthermore, CVD, diabetes, and elevated body fat are associated with greater risk of COVID-19 infection and more severe symptomology, underscoring the importance of avoiding the development of such morbidities. Here we review mechanisms of sarcopenia and their relation to the current data on the effects of COVID-19 confinement on physical activity, dietary habits, sleep, and stress as well as extended bed rest due to COVID-19 hospitalization. The potential of these factors to lead to an increased likelihood of muscle loss and chronic disease will be discussed. By offering a number of home-based strategies including resistance exercise, higher protein intakes and supplementation, we can potentially guide public health authorities to avoid a lifestyle disease and rehabilitation crisis post-COVID-19. Such strategies may also serve as useful preventative measures for reducing the likelihood of sarcopenia in general and in the event of future periods of isolation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Overweight and obesity increase the risk of morbidity and mortality. The relations between body composition at midlife, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in old age, and longevity are, however, less studied. OBJECTIVES We examined the association of midlife body composition with successful aging, defined as high HRQoL and reaching 90 y of age, during 32 y follow-up. METHODS Participants were 1354 men from the Helsinki Businessmen Study, born 1919-1934. In 1985/1986 (mean age: 60 y) various health measurements were performed. Percentages of body fat (BF) and skeletal muscle mass (SM) were calculated using validated formulas (including waist and hip circumferences, weight, and age) and divided into quartiles. In 2000 and 2007 (mean ages: 74 and 80 y, respectively), HRQoL was assessed using RAND-36/Short Form-36 scales. Mortality was retrieved from registers through 2018, and longevity determined by calculating the proportion of participants reaching 90 y. Logistic regression was used to assess ORs with 95% CIs. RESULTS Higher SM% at midlife in 1985/1986 was associated (P < 0.05) with higher scores in the RAND-36 scales of physical functioning, role limitations caused by physical health problems, vitality, social functioning, and general health in old age in 2000. In 2007 only the association with physical domain (physical functioning, role limitations caused by physical health problems) remained statistically significant (P < 0.01). BF% quartiles in 1985/1986 were inversely associated with several RAND-36 scales in 2000 and 2007. During the 32-y follow-up, 982 participants died and 281 reached 90 y of age. Being in the highest SM% quartile at midlife increased (adjusted OR: 2.32; 95% CI: 1.53, 3.53; lowest SM% quartile as reference) and being in the highest BF% quartile decreased (OR: 0.43; 95% CI: 0.28, 0.66; lowest BF% quartile as reference) the odds of reaching 90 y. CONCLUSIONS Desirable body composition in terms of both fat and skeletal muscle mass at midlife was associated with successful aging in men.This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02526082.

Abstract
The association between habitual intake of the “dietary approaches to stop hypertension” (DASH) eating plan and sarcopenia has received limited attention. The present study aimed to investigate the association between adherence to DASH dietary pattern and sarcopenia and its components including muscle mass, muscle strength, and muscle performance among community-dwelling older adults population. This population-based cross-sectional study was performed in 2011 among 300 older people (150 men and 150 women) aged ≥ 55 years, who were selected using cluster random sampling method. Dietary intake of study participants were examined by the use of a Block-format 117-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). The DASH score was constructed based on eight main foods and nutrients emphasized or minimized in the DASH diet. All components of sarcopenia was measured using standard protocols and sarcopenia was defined based on both former and new European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) guidelines. Mean age and BMI of study participants were 66.7 ± 7.7 years and 27.3 ± 4.2 kg/m2, respectively. Totally, 31 individuals meet the criteria of EWGSOP2-sarcopenia. We found no significant association between adherence to the DASH diet and EWGSOP2-sarcopenia either before (OR 1.08; 95% CI 0.45–2.54) or after adjustment for potential confounders (OR 1.04; 95% CI 0.39–2.75). The same findings were obtained in the gender-stratified analyses (men: OR 2.29; 95% CI 0.39–13.29 and women: 0.75; 95% CI 0.23–2.45). In conclusion, we found that adherence to the DASH-style diet was not significantly associated with odds of sarcopenia. Future prospective studies are required to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund Diabetes mellitus Typ 2 (T2DM) und Sarkopenie nehmen mit steigendem Alter in ihrer Prävalenz zu und können langfristig betrachtet jeweils zu erheblichen gesundheitlichen und funktionellen Einschränkungen führen. Während eine zunehmende Insulinresistenz bei abnehmender Muskelmasse plausibel erscheint, sind umgekehrt auch glukotoxische negative Effekte auf die Skelettmuskulatur im Sinne einer sekundären Sarkopenie denkbar. Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, den Zusammenhang zwischen Sarkopenie, Insulinresistenz und T2DM bei älteren Menschen zu untersuchen.
Methoden Untersucht wurden 1555 Probanden der Berliner Altersstudie II (BASE-II) mit einem durchschnittlichen Alter von 68 ± 4 Jahren. Die Diagnose T2DM wurde basierend auf der Anamnese sowie oralem Glukosetoleranztest und HbA1c-Wert nach ADA-Kriterien gestellt und die Insulinresistenz wurde via Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) und Insulinsensitivitätsindex nach Matsuda (ISI) eingeschätzt. Die appendikuläre Skelettmuskelmasse (ALM) wurde mittels Dual-Röntgen-Absorptiometrie (DXA) und eine Sarkopenie mithilfe der anhand des Body-Mass-Index (BMI) korrigierten Muskelmasse (ALM/BMI) nach den Cut-off-Werten des FNIH Sarcopenia Project bestimmt. Gruppenvergleiche wurden mittels Kruskal-Wallis-Test berechnet, und der Zusammenhang zwischen Diabetes mellitus und Sarkopenie bzw. ALM und Insulinresistenz wurde mittels geeigneter Regressionsmodelle überprüft.
Ergebnisse 25,2 % der insgesamt 160 Probanden mit T2DM hatten bereits eine Sarkopenie. Sarkopenisch-adipöse Probanden wiesen im Vergleich zu nur adipösen, nur sarkopenen oder weder adipösen noch sarkopenen Probanden im Median einen niedrigeren ISI und einen höheren HOMA-IR auf (jeweils p < 0,001). T2DM zeigte sich unabhängig assoziiert mit Sarkopenie (OR 3,293, 95 %-KI 1,984–5,466, p < 0,001), während nach Ausschluss bekannter Diabetiker eine höhere ALM mit einem höheren ISI (B 0,229, 95 %-KI 0,119–0,338; p < 0,001), nicht jedoch niedrigerem HOMA-IR (B –0,017, 95 %-KI –0,089–0,055; p = 0,640) einherging.
Diskussion Sarkopenie ist sowohl mit Insulinresistenz als auch T2DM assoziiert. Die Frage bzgl. der Kausalität ist aufgrund des querschnittlichen Designs der Studie nicht zu beantworten, jedoch sollte eine mögliche Rolle des T2DM als sekundäre Sarkopenieursache berücksichtigt und weiter untersucht werden. Im Hinblick auf mögliche Folgen erscheinen die Identifizierung von Risikopatienten mit kombiniertem Auftreten von Sarkopenie und Insulinresistenz und die Evaluation basaler präventiver Maßnahmen wie gezieltes körperliches Training und angepasste Ernährung ein weiterführendes sinnvolles Ziel.

Abstract
Objective: In order to promote physical activity (PA) in patients with complicated type 2 diabetes, a better understanding of daily movement is required. We (1) objectively assessed PA in patients with type 2 diabetes, and (2) studied the association between muscle mass, dietary protein intake, and PA. Methods: We performed cross-sectional analyses in all patients included in the Diabetes and Lifestyle Cohort Twente (DIALECT) between November 2016 and November 2018. Patients were divided into four groups: <5000, 5000–6999, 7000–9999, ≥ 10,000 steps/day. We studied the association between muscle mass (24 h urinary creatinine excretion rate, CER) and protein intake (by Maroni formula), and the main outcome variable PA (steps/day, Fitbit Flex device) using multivariate linear regression analyses. Results: In the 217 included patients, the median steps/day were 6118 (4115–8638). Of these patients, 48 patients (22%) took 7000–9999 steps/day, 37 patients (17%) took ≥ 10,000 steps/day, and 78 patients (36%) took <5000 steps/day. Patients with <5000 steps/day had, in comparison to patients who took ≥10,000 steps/day, a higher body mass index (BMI) (33 ± 6 vs. 30 ± 5 kg/m2, p = 0.009), lower CER (11.7 ± 4.8 vs. 14.8 ± 3.8 mmol/24 h, p = 0.001), and lower protein intake (0.84 ± 0.29 vs. 1.08 ± 0.22 g/kg/day, p < 0.001). Both creatinine excretion (β = 0.26, p < 0.001) and dietary protein intake (β = 0.31, p < 0.001) were strongly associated with PA, which remained unchanged after adjustment for potential confounders. Conclusions: Prevalent insufficient protein intake and low muscle mass co-exist in obese patients with low physical activity. Dedicated intervention studies are needed to study the role of sufficient protein intake and physical activity in increasing or maintaining muscle mass in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Longitudinal association of type 2 diabetes and insulin therapy with muscle parameters in the KORA-Age study. Acta Diabetol 2020; 57:1057-1063. [PMID: 32246270 DOI: 10.1007/s00592-020-01523-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2020] [Accepted: 03/19/2020] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
AIMS The aim of the current study was to investigate the association of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and insulin treatment with changes in muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical performance in older adults. METHODS In 731 participants of the population-based KORA-Age study aged 74.6 ± 6.2 years (T2D: n = 118; insulin treatment: n = 20), skeletal muscle index (SMI [kg/m2]), hand grip strength (GS [kg]), and a timed up and go test (TUG [s]) were performed at baseline and after a follow-up time of 3 years. The association of T2D and insulin therapy with changes in muscle parameters was analyzed using linear regression models. RESULTS After adjustment for sex, age, BMI, physical activity, smoking, and multimorbidity, T2D was associated with the change in SMI during follow-up (β - 0.1 (95% CI - 0.3 to - 0.02) kg/m2; p = 0.02), but not with a change in GS (β - 0.9 (95% CI - 1.9 to 0.04) kg) or TUG (β - 0.1 (95% CI - 0.7 to 0.5) s). Insulin therapy was positively associated with change in SMI (β 0.6 (95% CI 0.3-0.9) kg/m2; p = 0.001), but not in GS (β - 1.6 (95% CI - 4.1 to 0.8) kg) or TUG (β 1.6 (95% CI - 0.2-3.4) s) in comparison with treatment with oral anti-diabetic medication alone. CONCLUSIONS Participants with T2D showed an accelerated decline in muscle mass compared to non-diabetic participants. Insulin therapy was associated with preserved muscle mass, but not muscle function parameters, indicating a discrepancy between muscle mass and function in this high-risk population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Sarcopenia leads to metabolic and vascular abnormalities. However, little is known regarding the independent relationship between skeletal muscle mass and atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to evaluate the association between skeletal muscle mass and carotid atherosclerosis in men and women with T2DM. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, a total of 8202 patients with T2DM were recruited from the Seoul Metabolic Syndrome cohort. Skeletal muscle mass was estimated using bioimpedance analysis, while skeletal muscle mass index (SMI, %) was defined as total skeletal muscle mass (kg)/body weight (kg) × 100. Both carotid arteries were examined by B-mode ultrasound. Carotid atherosclerosis was defined by having a carotid plaque or mean carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) ≥1.1 mm. RESULTS Among the entire population, 4299 (52.4%) subjects had carotid atherosclerosis. The prevalence of carotid atherosclerosis increased with decreasing SMI quartiles for both sexes. The odds ratios for carotid atherosclerosis were 2.33 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.17-4.63) and 2.24 (95% CI, 1.06-4.741) in the lowest versus highest SMI quartile in men and women, respectively, after the adjustment for clinical risk factors. In men, the risk of atherosclerosis increased linearly with decreasing SMI quartiles (p for trend = 0.036). CONCLUSIONS Low skeletal muscle mass was independently associated with the presence of carotid atherosclerosis in men and women with T2DM.

Abstract
PURPOSE We explored how food and dietary intakes, protein daily distribution and source are associated with appendicular lean mass (ALM)/m2 of the oldest-old community-dwelling men. METHODS Cross-sectional analyses of Helsinki Businessmen Study (HBS, mean age 87 years) participants who came to clinic visit in 2017/2018. Nutritional status, physical performance and fasting blood samples were measured. Food and dietary intakes were retrieved from 3-day food diaries. Body composition was measured and appendicular lean mass (ALM) per m2 was dichotomized as ALM/m2 < 7 kg/m2 and ≥ 7 kg/m2. Differences between lower and higher ALM were analyzed using t test or Mann-Whitney U test. Analysis of covariance was used to investigate independent associations with ALM/m2. RESULTS Random sample of 130 participants took part in the medical examinations, 126 returned food diaries, and 102 underwent DXA-scan. ALM/m2 was associated with total protein (p = 0.033), animal protein (p = 0.043) and meat protein (p = 0.033) intakes. Protein distribution between daily meals differed at lunch; those with higher ALM/m2 ate more protein (p = .047) at lunch. Consumption of fruits, vegetables (p = 0.022) and meat (p = 0.006) was associated with ALM/m2. CONCLUSION Protein intake, source and distribution as well fruit and vegetable intakes were associated with higher ALM in oldest-old men. STUDY REGISTRATION The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02526082.

Diagnostic differences and agreement between the original and revised European Working Group (EWGSOP) consensus definition for sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Arch Gerontol Geriatr 2020; 89:104081. [PMID: 32485520 DOI: 10.1016/j.archger.2020.104081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2020] [Revised: 03/25/2020] [Accepted: 04/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
AIM We aimed to compare diagnostic differences for identification of sarcopenia using the original operational definition developed by the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP1) and the most recently revised EWGSOP2 definition in community dwelling older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS Appendicular Lean Mass (ALM) corrected for height (ALM/m2) was assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Muscle strength was assessed using hand-grip strength (HGS) or chair stands, and the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) and gait speed were used to evaluate lower extremity physical function. Cohen's kappa (κ) statistic was applied to determine the degree of agreement between the two definitions. Chi-square analysis with Bonferroni post hoc corrections were applied to determine differences in the prevalence of sarcopenic case-findings. RESULTS A total of n = 87 older adults (71.2 ± 8.2 years; 66.7% males; BMI: 29.5 ± 5.8 kg/m2) were included. Agreement between the two definitions was low and non-significant (κ value = 0.118; P = 0.144). Significantly more cases of sarcopenia were identified when applying the EWGSOP1 definition (EWGSOP1: n = 6 (7%); EWGSOP2: n = 2 (2%); P = 0.004). No sex specific differences were observed. Only 2 of the 6 (33.3%) cases of sarcopenia identified by EWGSOP1 were also identified as sarcopenic when applying the EWGSOP2 diagnostic criteria. CONCLUSIONS We showed significant discordance and limited overlap in the number of sarcopenic case-findings when applying both EWGSOP definitions. It is unknown as to whether the new diagnostic criteria are better at identifying adverse clinical outcomes in patients with T2DM. Future investigation is therefore warranted.

Abstract
While onset characteristics may vary, sarcopenia gradually develops over time as a result of the aging process, leading to muscle loss, disturbance of the muscle to fat ratio, and a variety of negative symptoms undermining the wellbeing, quality of life, and lifespan in the aging population globally. There is evidence that sarcopenia may be a cause and consequence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the aging population. The importance of nutritional management in the prevention and/or deceleration of sarcopenia is critical, with the main focus placed on the amount and quality of protein intake. Significant efforts are being made towards the development of medical nutrition therapies involving certain amino acids and amino compounds, as well as their combinations, for the improvement in muscle strength, muscle function and protein synthesis. This may reduce hospitalization times and hasten the recovery of patients with sarcopenia. The administration of protocols with varying dose and frequencies, as well as their efficacy, is being investigated. In the work herein, we present and evaluate data derived from human trials regarding the utilization of hydroxyl-methyl butyrate (HMB), L-leucine (Leu), L-glutamine (Gln) and L-arginine (Arg) supplementation for optimal management of sarcopenia in geriatric patients, a topic of significant clinical nutrition interest which may have important implications in T2DM status.
