Age-related muscle loss is a phenomenon that has been extensively studied in recent
decades. Sarcopenia is a multisystem disease, which predisposes to muscle weakness and�…

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�…

Purpose: To investigate the prognostic relevance of temporal muscle thickness (TMT) as a
surrogate parameter of skeletal muscle status in patients with newly diagnosed�…

Lean muscle mass (LMM) is an important aspect of human health. Temporalis muscle
thickness is a promising LMM marker but has had limited utility due to its unknown normal�…

Objective Sarcopenia is an important prognostic consideration in surgical oncology that has
received relatively little attention in brain tumor patients. Temporal muscle thickness (TMT)�…

Background Pre-stroke sarcopenia associated with poor functional outcomes. However,
diagnosis of pre-stroke sarcopenia is often difficult in patients with acute stroke. Thus, we�…

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�…

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�…

Objective: To investigate the predictive value of prognosis of primary GBM patients using
TMT on three-dimensional (3D) MR images of the brain. Methods: Data of 130 patients with�…

The assessment of sarcopenia is part of the nutritional assessment index and is essential in
stroke management. This study aimed to identify and validate cutoff values of temporal�…
