This study aimed to address the limitations of conventional methods for measuring skeletal muscle mass for sarcopenia diagnosis by introducing an artificial intelligence (AI) system for direct computed tomography (CT) analysis. The primary focus was ...
BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia and reduced muscle quality index have garnered special attention due to their prevalence among older individuals and the adverse effects they generate. Early detection of these geriatric pathologies holds significant potential,...
INTRODUCTION: Grip strength serves as a significant marker for diagnosing and assessing sarcopenia, particularly in elderly populations. The study aims to explore the relationship between individual thigh muscle volumes and grip strength, leveraging ...
OBJECTIVES: Muscle loss after radiotherapy is associated with poorer survival in patients with oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC). However, the threshold of muscle loss remains unclear. This study aimed to utilize explainable artificial inte...
OBJECTIVE: The prognostic significance of body composition phenotypes for survival in patients undergoing surgical intervention for spinal metastases has not yet been elucidated. This study aimed to elucidate the impact of body composition phenotypes...

BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia is a prominent issue among aging populations and associated with poor health outcomes. This study aimed to examine the predictive value of questionnaire and biomarker data for sarcopenia, and to further develop a user-friendly ...
This study addresses the pressing need for improved methods to predict lean mass in adults, and in particular lean body mass (LBM), appendicular lean mass (ALM), and appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASMM) for the early detection and management of s...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the influence of baseline sarcopenia and changes in body composition on survival during cervical cancer treatment.
