Clinical Value of Muscle Mass Assessment in Clinical Conditions Associated with Malnutrition

Abstract: Malnutrition results from a reduction of food intake or an alteration of nutrient assimilation and leads to decreased lean mass. Strong evidence shows that malnutrition associated with loss of muscle mass negatively impacts clinical outcomes. The preservation or improvement of muscle mass represents a challenge. This review aims to (1) describe current methods to assess muscle mass in clinical practice, (2) describe the associations between muscle mass and clinical outcomes, and (3) describe the impact of inte… Show more

“…Additionally, HDPs such as the Mediterranean diet was also reported to slow down the onset of frailty, a consequence of lean mass reduction in older adults [ 57 , 58 ]. Deficits in certain nutrients had been implicated to decrease lean mass [ 59 ]. For instance, in older adults, this had been linked to a lack of folate, vitamin B 12 , vitamin D, calcium as well as dietary antioxidants in general [ 60 ].…”

“…Furthermore, strong evidence shows that undernutrition associated with loss of muscle mass negatively impacts clinical outcomes [ 11 ] and the preservation or improvement of muscle mass represents a challenge not only in AN but also in chronic diseases. Reduced muscle mass is a phenotypic criterion for malnutrition in GLIM (Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition) criteria [ 12 ] and in the recommendations from the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People [ 13 ].…”

“…9 Other anthropometric measurements such as bio electrical impedance analysis (BIA) have been validated to measure muscle mass, fat mass, dan lean body mass (LBM). 10 In this study, we aimed to evaluate the nutritional status in patients with renal failure on HD using MUAC parameters and muscle mass and to determine their correlation with HGS.…”
