Summary: This study found a significant association between leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) and sarcopenia in older adults from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Analyzing data from six LMICs, the study showed that low LTPA was associated with higher odds of sarcopenia, particularly in women.

SARC-F as a case-finding tool for sarcopenia according to the EWGSOP2. National validation and comparison with other diagnostic standards

Karolina Piotrowicz et al.

Summary: The study aimed to validate the clinical performance of the Polish version of the SARC-F questionnaire, which was found to have low sensitivity but high specificity. In the elderly population, SARC-F is better suited for ruling out sarcopenia than for case finding. Further refinement of the screening for sarcopenia with the use of SARC-F seems necessary.
