Hand grip strength (HGS) serves as a fundamental metric in assessing muscle function and
overall physical capability and is particularly relevant to the ageing population. HGS holds …

Sarcopenia is a progressive and generalized loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. The
prevalence of sarcopenia was reported to be up to 29% in older persons in the community …

Biological aging of human organ systems reflects the interplay of age, chronic disease,
lifestyle and genetic risk. Using longitudinal brain imaging and physiological phenotypes …

Summary Background The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is an easily accessible surrogate
marker of insulin resistance, an important pathway in the development of type 2 diabetes …

Globally, depression is a leading cause of disability and has remained so for decades.
Antidepressant medications have suboptimal outcomes and are too frequently associated …

Grip strength has been proposed as a biomarker. Supporting this proposition, evidence is

The term sarcopenia was first introduced in 1988 by Irwin Rosenberg to define a condition of
muscle loss that occurs in the elderly. Since then, a broader definition comprising not only …

Skeletal muscle is a major organ of insulin-induced glucose metabolism. In addition, loss of
muscle mass is closely linked to insulin resistance (IR) and metabolic syndrome (Met-S) …

Background There is limited evidence on sarcopenia in Asian populations. This study aimed
to clarify the prevalence, associated factors, and the magnitude of association with mortality …
