“…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]. Sample sizes ranged from 192 to 2983 participants.…”

“…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].…”

“…Bollwein et al [80] assessed dietary adherence using the alternate Mediterranean food (MED) score developed by Fung et al [98] which is an adaptation of the MDS developed by Trichopoulou et al [94] for application in non-Mediterranean populations. Two studies [81,83] applied data-driven (a posteriori) approaches including Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to characterize dietary patterns from dietary data collected by Food Frequency Questionnaires (FFQ). For each of the studies included in this review, the dietary assessment tool used to assess adherence to the MedDiet is presented in Table 1.…”

“…Two studies [79,81] evaluated adherence to a MedDiet and identified the proportion of sarcopenic individuals within the cohort. 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.…”

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.

Grip strength in midlife can predict physical disability in senior years. Recent evidence shows the critical role of nutritional status on muscle function. We aimed to elucidate whether adherence to a particular dietary pattern would be associated with abnormal muscle strength among middle-aged people. In this cross-sectional study, a semiquantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire was used to assess the dietary intake of 2781 participants in the Ravansar Non-Communicable Chronic Disease (RaNCD) cohort. Major dietary patterns from 28 main food groups were extracted using principal component analysis. Binary logistic regression was used to determine the association between the tertiles of the major dietary patterns and muscle strength status.Two major dietary patterns were identified: the "mixed dietary pattern" that heavily loaded with fruits, vegetables, nuts, dairies, sweets, legumes, dried fruits, fish, red meat, butter, whole grains, natural juices, poultry, pickles, olive, industrial juice, egg, processed meat, and snacks and "unhealthy dietary pattern" that heavily loaded by fats, sugar, refined grains, soft drink, salt, organ meat, tea, and coffee. Adherence to the mixed dietary pattern (OR = 1.03, 95% CI = 0.8-1.33, P for trend = 0.77) and the unhealthy dietary pattern (OR = 1.01, 95% CI = 0.79-0.13, P for trend = 0.89) did not associate with abnormal muscle strength. This study suggests that the dietary | 6673 SAMADI et Al.
