High-density Surface Electromyography as Biomarker of Muscle Aging.

Sarcopenia is a muscle disease with adverse changes that increase throughout the lifetime but with different chronological scales between individuals. Addressing "early muscle aging" is becoming a critical issue for prevention. Through the CHRONOS study, we demonstrated the ability of the high-density surface electromyography (HD-sEMG), a noninvasive, wireless, portable technology, to detect both healthy muscle aging and accelerated muscle aging related to a sedentary lifestyle, one of the risk factors of sarcopenia.
