Computed tomography (CT) assessments of sarcopenia utilize measurements of skeletal muscle cross-sectional area (SMA), radiation attenuation (SMRA), and intramuscular adipose tissue (IMAT). Unadjusted SMA is strongly correlated with both height and body mass index (BMI); therefore, SMA must be ...
Saturation bands were placed over the skeletal muscle in the anterior chest wall, and the liver, in order to minimise potential signal contamination. The CSI grid was positioned to obtain one voxel containing mid-ventricular septal myocardium.24 Analysis was blinded to descriptive data, and voxels ...
Accordingly, in the present study we sought to determine the relative contribution of muscle strength, lean mass, and an index of lower extremity motor function (performance time on the four square step test, which is discussed more below), in explaining between-participant variance in measures ...
Effects of amino acid combinations with different patterns on alterations of mRNA expressions in the breast muscle of AA broilers. A Male-S6K1; B Male-MAFbx; C Femal-S6K1; D Female-MAFbx. Con(+): The normal-protein control group; Con(-): The low-protein control group; L&A(-): The...
Differing from other tissues, brown adipose tissue and skeletal muscle conserved glucose, decreasing uptake threefold to fivefold. It is noteworthy that persistent low-oxygen conditions induced distinct physiological changes in the heart, which increasingly prioritized glucose utilization, and unexpectedly, ...
RGS-TUG score: a composite score of relative grip strength (RGS) and timed up and go (TUG) test, with 4 indicating best physical function and 0 indicating poorest physical function; Abbreviations: BMI: body mass index; HbA1c: hemoglobin A1c; SD: standard deviation; TUG: timed up and go ...

Changes in relative skeletal muscle index (RSMI; limb lean tissue divided by height squared) were compared following (1) diet alone, (2) diet + aerobic training, or (3) diet + resistance training. Methods Overweight, sedentary African American (AA; n = 72) and European American (EA; n ...
