Article Synopsis
- Post-COVID-19 syndrome leads to various health issues, including reduced lung function and muscle strength, highlighting a need to investigate the impact of obesity and low muscle strength in affected patients.
- A study involving 711 subjects revealed significant associations between poor pulmonary function and conditions like dynapenia (low muscle strength) and sarcopenia (muscle loss), especially among those with obesity.
- Results show that individuals with dynapenia and sarcopenia experienced notable decreases in lung function metrics, suggesting these factors can worsen respiratory outcomes in post-COVID-19 patients.
