Diagnostic accuracy of the five times stand-to-sit test for the screening of global muscle weakness in community-dwelling older women

Jaqueline Mello Porto et al.

Summary: The 5 times stand-to-sit test (5TSST) can be used to screen for muscle weakness in older adults. However, its validity is only based on correlation with the strength of specific muscle groups. This study found that the 5TSST can estimate global muscle strength in independent older women, making it a useful tool for screening muscle weakness.

Fiber-Type Shifting in Sarcopenia of Old Age: Proteomic Profiling of the Contractile Apparatus of Skeletal Muscles

Paul Dowling et al.

Summary: The loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength is the main cause of frailty syndrome, which is closely associated with sarcopenia in the elderly. Mass spectrometry-based proteomic surveys have improved our understanding of the molecular and cellular changes during muscle atrophy and age-related fiber-type shifting. Proteomic analysis suggests that contractile proteins can be used as markers of fiber-type transitions during aging.

Dose-Response Relationships between Objectively Measured Daily Steps and Mortality among Frail and Nonfrail Older Adults

Daiki Watanabe et al.

Summary: The study investigated the association between objectively assessed physical activity and mortality in community-dwelling older adults, and whether this association differs between frail and non-frail individuals. The findings revealed that there is a plateau in the relationship between daily step count and mortality at approximately 5000-7000 steps per day for non-frail individuals, while an inverse relationship exists at 5000 steps or more per day for frail individuals. These findings have implications for future physical activity guidelines.

Using the RE-AIM framework to evaluate physical activity-based fall prevention interventions in older adults with chronic conditions: A systematic review

Elizabeth A. Choma et al.

Summary: Falls among older adults with chronic conditions are a significant public health concern. This systematic review aimed to assess the translational potential of physical activity-based balance interventions for this population. The findings suggest that these interventions are effective in improving balance, but information about their representativeness and adoption/maintenance is lacking. The overall quality of the studies is moderate, and there is a need for more research on key indicators for implementing these programs. Further investigation in community and clinical settings is necessary to ensure long-term success and reduce falls in older adults.

Exercise Guidelines to Counteract Physical Deconditioning in Long-Term Care Facilities: What to Do and How to Do It?

Eva Peyrusque et al.

Summary: With age, older adults experience a decline in muscle function and changes in body composition, leading to a higher risk of functional incapacity and loss of autonomy. These declines are more pronounced in older adults living in long-term care facilities than those living in the community. The main cause of these declines is chronic diseases, which contribute to higher rates of sedentary behavior in long-term care settings. Despite the recognized benefits of exercise, it is not widely practiced in clinical settings.

Curcumin as a Therapeutic Agent for Sarcopenia

Siti Liyana Saud Gany et al.

Summary: Sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass, strength, and functions, is associated with oxidative stress and inflammation. Curcumin, a natural compound with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities derived from turmeric, may have therapeutic effects on muscle health. This review summarizes the evidence from cellular, animal, and human studies, suggesting that curcumin prevents muscle degeneration, maintains satellite cell function, protects mitochondrial function, and suppresses inflammation and oxidative stress. However, more evidence from carefully planned human clinical trials is needed to confirm these findings.

An Integrated Approach to Skeletal Muscle Health in Aging

Deborah Agostini et al.

Summary: A decline in muscle mass and function is a significant issue associated with aging, affecting autonomy and quality of life. Factors such as mitochondrial dysfunction, autophagy dysfunction, and satellite cell regeneration capacity contribute to the process of sarcopenia. Sedentary lifestyle exacerbates the decline in muscle mass and motoneuron functionality. Adequate physical activity is essential for elderly individuals, along with well-designed training programs to improve muscle mass and quality of life. The gut microbiota composition and vitamin D deficiency are also linked to sarcopenia and interventions targeting these factors may ameliorate the condition. Nutritional therapies involving supplements like antioxidants, polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, probiotics, prebiotics, proteins, kefir, and short-chain fatty acids could be potential approaches against sarcopenia. A personalized integrated strategy is suggested to counteract sarcopenia and maintain skeletal muscle health.

Promoting resilience in the face of ageing and disease: The central role of exercise and physical activity

Mikel Izquierdo et al.

Summary: Exercise and physical activity have significant benefits for older adults with various physical and neuropsychological diseases and disabilities, including those without pharmacological treatments or with risky treatments. However, exercise is underutilized and not fully integrated into geriatric medicine practice. Frailty should not be seen as a barrier to exercise, but rather a reason to prescribe it. Exercise prescription needs to be emphasized in the training of healthcare professionals and seen as a mandatory component in geriatric medicine.

Understanding influences on physical activity participation by older adults: A qualitative study of community-dwelling older adults from the Hertfordshire Cohort Study, UK

Jean Zhang et al.

Summary: This qualitative study aimed to explore factors influencing the participation of community-dwelling older adults in physical activity (PA). The findings highlighted the role of modifiable factors, particularly psychological factors (such as self-efficacy, motivation, outcome expectancy) and social factors (such as social support and social engagement). These factors not only influenced PA participation but also mediated the effect of other non-modifiable factors on engagement with PA in later life. The study suggests that interventions should focus on enhancing psychological and social factors to promote PA participation in older adults.

Efficacy of Exercise on Muscle Function and Physical Performance in Older Adults with Sarcopenia: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Haolin Wang et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the efficacy of exercise interventions on muscle strength, muscle mass, and physical performance in older adults with sarcopenia. The results showed that exercise interventions can significantly improve grip strength, knee extension strength, muscle mass of lower extremities, walking speed, and functional mobility among older adults with sarcopenia. However, no significant exercise effects were found on fat-free muscle mass, appendicular muscle mass, skeletal muscle mass, and muscle mass of the upper extremities. Subgroup analysis indicated that resistance training and multicomponent exercise can significantly increase muscle strength, while aerobic exercise did not. This study suggests that exercise intervention can effectively improve muscle function and physical performance in older adults with sarcopenia, particularly through group-based and supervised resistance training and multicomponent exercise.
