Abstract:
Sarcopenia,also known as"oligomyositis""hypomyositis"and"muscle wasting",is an age-related geriatric syndrome characterized by decreased muscle mass,muscle strength and function decline.It can increase the risk of adverse out-comes such as physical disability,poor quality of life,and death.The pathogenic factors of sarcopenia mainly include older age,diseases,lack of exercise,malnutrition,etc.As one of the key factors affecting sarcopenia,the nutritional status of the body play an important role in the development of sarcopenia.Therefore,this paper reviews the role of nutrition in sarcopenia and nutritional interventions for patients with common chronic diseases combined with sarcopenia,aiming to provide a basis for the developing more scientific and rationalized nutritional intervention program for elderly patients with sarcopenia.
