Temporal muscle thickness (TMT) was investigated as a novel surrogate marker on MRI
examinations of the brain, to detect patients who may be at risk for sarcopenia. TMT was�…

Cognitive decline is one of the most relevant signs of sarcopenia; however, it is challenging
to perform tests for sarcopenia in patients with dementia. In a recent study, temporalis�…

Background: Evaluating muscle mass and function among stroke patients is important.
However, evaluating muscle volume and function is not easy due to the disturbances of�…

Sarcopenia, characterized by low muscle mass and function, results in frailty, comorbidities
and mortality. However, its prevalence varies according to the different criteria used in its�…

Purpose Reduced temporal muscle thickness (TMT) has recently been postulated as a
prognostic imaging marker and an objective tool to assess patients frailty in glioblastoma�…

BACKGROUND Sarcopenia, generally described as “aging-related loss of skeletal muscle
mass and function”, can occur secondary to a systemic disease. AIM This project aimed to�…

Objectives Muscle mass at admission is important to survive stroke, and stroke-induced
sarcopenia is a serious problem because of its poor prognosis. Muscle mass measurement�…

Relative and absolute muscle mass and muscle strength are used as diagnostic criteria for
sarcopenia. We aimed to assess which diagnostic criteria are most associated with physical�…

Objective: Until now, cutoff values of low skeletal muscle mass using computed tomography
(CT) were driven by optimal stratification to predict mortality in cancer patients. The aim of�…

According to the revised European consensus on sarcopenia, muscle strength is the primary
parameter of sarcopenia and is associated with adverse outcomes or physical limitation�…
