Abstract:
Sarcopenia and cardiometabolic diseases have become important public health problems affecting the health and quality of life of the elderly. Reducing the incidence of sarcopenia is of positive significance for preventing and treating cardiometabolic diseases. This paper reviews the diagnostic criteria of sarcopenia in the elderly, the relationship between sarcopenia and cardiometabolic diseases, and the possible mechanisms. It provides support for the prevention and control of sarcopenia combined with cardiometabolic diseases.
