Research progress in diagnosis and assessment of sarcopenia
Sarcopenia is a disease with skeletal muscle volume and number reducing and function declining gradually with age, and it often leads to adverse consequences such as falls, fractures, even death. With the acceleration of the aging process of Chinese society, the prevalence of sarcopenia is increasing year by year,so it is of great practical significance to pay attention to the diagnosis and evaluation of sarcopenia and actively look for appropriate intervention means. This paper collects the global guidelines and consensus on sarcopenia diagnosis and treatment, systematically elaborates the concept, diagnostic elements, epidemiology, risk factors, and traditional Chinese medicine prevention and treatment progress of sarcopenia, in order to provide the references for the diagnosis and treatment of sarcopenia in clinic.
