Article Synopsis
- Sarcopenia is the loss of muscle mass and strength, often linked to aging, but can be accelerated by chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
- The key factor in developing sarcopenia in T2DM is insulin resistance, which impairs physical performance and can lead to further muscle loss due to inflammation and oxidative stress.
- The relationship between T2DM and sarcopenia is bidirectional, where each condition can exacerbate the other, affecting metabolism and increasing the risk of complications in both diseases.
