Metabolic surgery helps people with sarcopenic obesity lose weight and improve health
This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) outcomes in a global sarcopenic obesity population …
A global review of 1,704 patients shows metabolic surgery helps those with sarcopenic obesity lose weight and manage health issues better th…
Combined aerobic and resistance training significantly improves FEV1, FVC, and MIP in older sarcopenic patients
Combined exercise training improves lung function in older adults with muscle loss
This systematic review and meta-analysis of 655 older patients with sarcopenia found that combined aerobic and resistance training significa…
Older adults with muscle loss gain better lung function when doing both aerobic and resistance training together, not just one type.
Gut microbes and metabolites may influence aging, though human evidence remains limited
Gut microbes may influence aging, but human evidence remains limited
This narrative review examines the role of gut microbes and their metabolites in aging. The authors note that most evidence comes from anima…
A review suggests gut microbes might affect aging, yet most data comes from animals and direct human proof is still missing.

Integrated care improves frailty and functional ability in community-dwelling frail older adults but lacks consistent benefits for other outcomes
Integrated care helps frail older adults with daily function
This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated integrated care for community-dwelling frail older adults in high-income regions. The ana…
