Sarcopenia is the age-related progressive decline in both skeletal muscle mass and function. It acts as an exacerbator of multimorbidity, engaging in bidirectional pathological cycles with multiple chronic diseases, and contributes substantially to increased mortality, disability and healthcare costs. Current nutritional support is often limited by a generic one-size-fits-all approach that fails t...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The masseter muscle is associated with oral impairment and age-related functional decline, yet scalable and objective indicators remain limited in epidemiological studies. We developed a convolutional neural network (CNN) to segment the masseter muscle on T1-weighted magnetic resonance images (T1WI) and examined whether CNN-derived masseter muscle volume, as an imaging-b...

Increasing evidence indicates that cellular senescence, metabolic dysfunction, stromal remodeling, and immune perturbation collectively contribute to ...
Fatty acid signatures (FA signatures), defined as the relative distribution of saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids within spec...
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by left ventricular dilation and systolic dysfunction and is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction a...
BACKGROUND: With population aging and the growing burden of chronic diseases, the number of patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) in China contin...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disease characterized by severe cognitive dysfunctions and brain disorders. The emergence of de...
Frailty predicts adverse outcomes in kidney transplant candidates, but it remains unclear whether different frailty tools identify the same or distinc...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in mental health care to address rising demand, workforce shortages and access barriers;...
UNLABELLED: This study shows that an artificial intelligence tool can identify patterns of reduced bone mineral density in routine CT scans that would...
Background: Contingency management (CM) is a psychosocial treatment used to improve socially significant behaviors. Its efficacy has been demonstrated...

While apigenin shows therapeutic potential for bone-related disorders like osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, its mechanisms in regulating ligamentum fl...
Sarcopenia and osteoporosis are characterized by insufficient mass and function of skeletal muscle and bone, and often co-occur in older persons, a co...
BACKGROUND: Prognosis remains heterogeneous among critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). We evaluated the triglyceride-glucose frailt...
BACKGROUND: Multimodal large language models (LLMs) are increasingly being explored for medical image analysis, but their relative performance in thyr...
Aging is a multifactorial process that is best described in terms of the progressive acquisition of multiple layers of phenotypic changes, such as epi...
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for patient health education, yet the readability and educational quality of LLM-generated informat...
OBJECTIVE: The interplay between periodontitis (PD) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is well recognized, with aging being a central risk factor for both....
