“…Using PCA to characterize dietary patterns from dietary data collected on n = 300 elderly Iranian men and women, Hashemi et al [81] reported that greater adherence to a MedDiet pattern was associated with a decrease in the proportion of sarcopenic individuals from 21% in the first tertile, 20% in the second tertile to 12% in the third tertile. Similarly, in a cohort of n = 554 postmenopausal elderly women derived from the Osteoporosis Risk Factor and Prevention-Fracture Prevention Study (OSTPRE-FPS), Isanejad et al [79] reported similar observations in the prevalence of sarcopenia across categories of adherence when using the MDS. However, these observed differences in the prevalence of sarcopenia across adherence categories in both studies were not statistically significant [79,81].…”

“…Therefore a total of 12 studies were included in this narrative review (see Table 1). There were five longitudinal cohort studies [74,[76][77][78][79] and seven cross-sectional studies [80][81][82][83][84][85]. Two studies originated from Italy [76,86], Germany [80,82] and USA [78,84], with one study coming from Greece [85], Spain [74], United Kingdom [83], Iran [81], China [77] and Finland [79].…”

“…Two studies [79,81] identified sarcopenia using the diagnostic algorithm established by the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) which defines sarcopenia as loss of function (either gait speed or grip strength) in the presence of low SMM or appendicular skeletal muscle (ASM) [4]. One study [82] assessed body composition using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) to derive ASM, calculated as the sum of lean soft tissue mass in both arms and legs [90] and further adjusted by BMI to establish the ASM index calculated using the formula, ASM/BMI [91,92].…”

Sarcopenia and physical frailty are associated with progressive disability and predictive of negative health outcomes. Dietary interventions are considered the cornerstone in the management of sarcopenic symptomology and physical frailty. However few studies have investigated preventative strategies. Moreover, most studies have focused on the efficacy of individual nutrients or supplements rather than dietary patterns. The Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) is a dietary pattern that provides evidence for an association between diet quality, healthy ageing and disease prevention. The purpose of this paper was to examine, synthesise and develop a narrative review of the current literature, investigating the potential benefits associated with adherence to a MedDiet and attenuation of physical frailty and sarcopenic symptomology in older adults. We also explored the underlying mechanisms underpinning the potential benefits of the MedDiet on ameliorating physical frailty and sarcopenic symptomology. Synthesis of the reviewed literature is suggestive of a decreased risk of physical frailty and sarcopenic symptomology with greater adherence to a MedDiet. We identified the anti-inflammatory and high antioxidant components of the MedDiet as two potential biological mechanisms involved. Due to a lack of evidence from RCTs to support the proposed physiological mechanisms, we suggest investigating these observations in older adults with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) whom are vulnerable to physical frailty and disability. A number of biological mechanisms describing the pathway to disability in older adults with T2DM have been postulated with many of these mechanisms potentially mitigated with dietary interventions involving the MedDiet. Exploring these mechanisms with the use of well-designed, longer-term dietary intervention studies in older adults with an increased vulnerability to physical frailty and sarcopenia is warranted.

Is There Enough Evidence for Osteosarcopenic Obesity as a Distinct Entity? A Critical Literature Review

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The coexistence of impaired bone health (osteopenia/osteoporosis), reduced muscle mass and strength (sarcopenia), and increased adiposity (obesity) in middle-aged and older people has been identified in recent studies, leading to a proposal for the existence of "osteosarcopenic obesity" as a distinct entity. Evidence for the pathophysiological overlap of these conditions is mounting, although a causal relationship is yet to be established. Each component condition occurs frequently with increasing age, and with shared risk factors in many instances, thus, an overlap of these three conditions is not surprising. However, whether the concurrent existence of sarcopenia, osteoporosis and obesity leads to an increased risk of adverse musculoskeletal outcomes and mortality above and beyond the risks associated with the sum of the component parts remains to be proven and is a question of research interest. In this article, we review evidence for the existence of osteosarcopenic obesity including the current operational definition of osteosarcopenic obesity, prevalence, pathophysiology, outcomes and exploratory approaches to the management of components. We conclude that, there is insufficient evidence to support a discrete clinical entity of osteosarcopenic obesity at this time. To expand knowledge and understanding in this area, there is a need for consensus on a definition of osteosarcopenic obesity which will allow for identification, further epidemiological studies and comparisons between studies. Additionally, studies should assess whether the clinical outcomes associated with osteosarcopenic obesity are worse than the mere addition of those linked with its components. This will help to determine whether defining a person as having this triad will eventually result in a more effective treatment than addressing each of the three conditions separately.
