“…Recent cross-sectional studies revealed the association between sarcopenia and NAFLD in general population [17][18][19]. To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the association between SMI and hepatic steatosis in patients with type2 diabetes.…”

“…We obtained readings for skeletal muscle mass (SMM, kg) and visceral fat area (VFA, cm 2 ). Skeletal muscle mass index (SMI, %) was expressed as percent, dividing the SMM (kg) by total body weight (kg) [17][18][19].…”

“…The muscle-liver crosstalk in energy and metabolic balance is also inferred from the observation that the patients with CLD manifest a higher incidence of sarcopenia, a loss of muscle mass (20). A recent study further suggests a strong association between sarcopenia and NAFLD in both non-obese and obese subjects (29). The importance of muscle-liver crosstalk is also implicated in a transgenic animal study where genetic ablation of myostatin, a TGF-beta superfamily member that regulates skeletal muscle mass (34), ameliorated high fat diet-induced elevation of liver weight (51).…”

“…[1114] Although the etiology of sarcopenia has not been clearly established, factors that contribute to sarcopenia, such as chronic inflammation and insulin resistance, are closely linked to renal hyperfiltration. [3,12] Furthermore, sarcopenia increases the risk of diabetes, [14] which is a determinant factor for renal hyperfiltration. [3,13] The high mortality rate of sarcopenia might be associated with renal hyperfiltration, as sarcopenia is a poor prognostic marker that is associated with increased mortality rate, independent of age, [10,11] and the U-shaped mortality curve related to kidney function.…”
