Elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) need individualized decision-making in their management in order to benefit in terms of survival and improvement of quality of life. Frailty, a common condition in elderly patients, needs to be considered when weighing treatment options. We aimed to evaluate outcomes including survival and functional parameters according to disability criteria at six years of follow-up in an older population treated for severe AS using a frailty-based management.

Sarcopenia has been a serious concern in the context of an increasingly aging global population. Existing detection methods for sarcopenia are severely constrained by cumbersome devices, the necessity for specialized personnel, and controlled experimental environments. In this study, we developed an innovative wearable fabric system based on conductive fabric and flexible sensor array.

Background: Sarcopenia, a condition characterized by low muscle mass, plays a critical role in the health of older adults. Early identification of individuals at risk is essential to prevent sarcopenia-related complications. This study aimed to develop a predictive model using readily available clinical nutrition indicators to facilitate early detection.

Background: The long-term relationship between body composition and lung function has not yet been fully demonstrated. We investigated the longitudinal association between muscle-to-fat (MF) ratio and lung function among middle-aged general population.
Methods: Participants were enrolled from a community-based prospective cohort between 2005 and 2014.

Aims: We conducted this study to investigate the impact of muscle loss on musculoskeletal health, fall and fracture risks, and activities of daily living (ADL) in elderly patients with osteoporosis.
Materials And Methods: This age- and sex-matched cross-sectional study analyzed data from a medical center involving patients aged ≥ 50 from 2020 to 2022. The included participants were formed into three groups: 100 with osteoporosis only, 100 with osteosarcopenia, and 50 control individuals without osteoporosis and sarcopenia.
