Abstract
Obesity is a heterogeneous condition which results from complex interactions among sex/gender, sociocultural, environmental, and biological factors. Obesity is more prevalent in women in most developed countries, and several clinical and psychological obesity complications show sex-specific patterns. Females differ regarding fat distribution, with males tending to store more visceral fat, which is highly correlated to increased cardiovascular risk. Although women are more likely to be diagnosed with obesity and appear more motivated to lose weight, as confirmed by their greater representation in clinical trials, males show better outcomes in terms of body weight and intra-abdominal fat loss and improvements in the metabolic risk profile. However, only a few relatively recent studies have investigated gender differences in obesity, and sex/gender is rarely considered in the assessment and management of the disease. This review summarizes the evidence of gender differences in obesity prevalence, contributing factors, clinical complications, and psychological challenges. In addition, we explored gender differences in response to obesity treatments in the specific context of new anti-obesity drugs.

Abstract
The prognostic significance of obesity in sarcopenic adults is controversial. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effect of additional obesity on health outcomes in sarcopenia. MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus and CENTRAL were systematically searched for studies to compare health outcomes of adults with sarcopenic obesity (SO) to those of sarcopenic non-obese (SNO) adults. We also considered the methods of assessing obesity. Of 15060 records screened, 65 papers were included (100612 participants). Older community-dwelling SO adults had 15% lower mortality risk than the SNO group (hazard ratio, HR: 0.85, 95% confidence interval 0.76, 0.94) even when obesity was assessed by measurement of body composition. Additionally, meta-regression analysis revealed a significant negative linear correlation between the age and the HR of all-cause mortality in SO vs. SNO community-dwelling adults, but not in severely ill patients. Compared with SNO, SO patients presented lower physical performance, higher risk for metabolic syndrome, but similar cognitive function, risk of falls and cardiovascular diseases. Age-related obesity, SO and later fat loss leading to SNO represent consecutive phases of biological aging. Additional obesity could worsen the health state in sarcopenia, but above 65 years SO represents a biologically earlier phase with longer life expectancy than SNO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcopenia and cardiometabolic risk factors are very common in the middle-aged and older population. This study aimed to explore the joint effect of sarcopenia and cardiometabolic risk factors on cognitive performance and cognitive decline. METHODS The definition of sarcopenia status was referenced in the AWGS 2019 algorithm. Linear regression models were used to explore the association of sarcopenia status with cognitive performance at baseline. Mixed effect models and multinomial logistic regression models were used to evaluate the long-term effect of sarcopenia status. The additive interaction between the effects of sarcopenia and cardiometabolic risk factors on cognitive performance was also evaluated. RESULTS In the cross-sectional analysis, sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia were associated with worse cognitive performance. In the longitudinal analysis, the participant with sarcopenia had a 0.34 [95 % CI (-0.43, -0.24)] lower global cognition score, and those with possible sarcopenia had a 0.20 [95 % CI (-0.27, -0.14)] lower global cognition score, compared with participants with no-sarcopenia. Sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia were identified as significant risk factors for cognitive decline. Sarcopenia combined with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, or abdominal obesity was associated with worse cognitive function. LIMITATIONS The assessment of cognitive function was not diagnosed accurately. CONCLUSIONS Sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia had adverse effects on cognitive performance and cognitive decline, sarcopenia combined with cardiometabolic risk factors can significantly enhance these effects. Therefore, the prevention of sarcopenia in the older population is crucial.

Abstract
Sarcopenia is associated with NAFLD. It is unknown if the association is explained by shared risk factors. Our study sought to investigate the association between liver fat and sarcopenia in our cohort. Liver fat was measured on CT between 2008 and 2011. We excluded heavy alcohol use and missing covariates. Muscle mass in a subset (n = 485) was measured by 24 h urinary creatinine. Physical function was defined by h strength and walking speed. Sarcopenia was defined as low muscle mass and/or low physical function. We created multivariable-adjusted regression models to evaluate cross-sectional associations between liver fat and low muscle mass, grip strength, and walking speed. The prevalence of hepatic steatosis was 30% (n = 1073; 58.1% women; mean age 65.8 ± 8.6 years). There was a significant positive association between liver fat and muscle mass in linear regression models. The association was not significant after adjusting for BMI. The odds of sarcopenia increased by 28% for each SD in liver fat (OR 1.28; 95% CI 1.02, 1.60) and persisted after accounting for confounders in multivariable-adjusted models (OR 1.30, 95% CI 1.02, 1.67). Further studies are needed to determine if there is a causal relationship between liver fat and sarcopenia and whether treatment of sarcopenia improves liver fat.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Sarcopenic obesity (SO), which refers to the coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was first to assess the prevalence of SO in patients with diabetes, and second, to evaluate possible adverse outcomes. METHODS This study was conducted in adherence to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and the data were collated by means of meta-analysis and narrative synthesis. We comprehensively and systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang Database from the establishment of the database to December 2022, and collected related studies on SO in patients with diabetes. Using Stata 16.0 software to pool the estimates for the prevalence of SO in patients with diabetes, and a descriptive systematic review of possible adverse outcomes was performed. RESULTS The prevalence of 20 included studies were pooled by a random-effects model, which showed that the prevalence of SO in patients with diabetes was 27%. Subgroup analyses showed that the prevalence of SO was higher among studies using BIA (24%) to assess muscle mass, and those focused on literature of moderate-quality (29%), being published from 2013 to 2016 (29%), female patients with diabetes (17%), North Americans (30%). SO in patients with diabetes can lead to adverse outcomes including decreased glomerular filtration rate, massive proteinuria, cognitive decline, and insulin resistance. CONCLUSION The systematic review and meta-analysis revealed a prevalence of 27% for SO in patients with diabetes, and it is associated with potential serious adverse outcomes. Therefore, we should attach importance to the screening of SO in patients with diabetes and early detection of susceptible groups, then selecting appropriate interventions to reduce the occurrence of it and various adverse outcomes in this demographic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the correlation of sarcopenic obesity with various cardiometabolic risk factors and fracture risk in middle-aged Korean women. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, the medical records of 1,775 women who had visited Pusan National University Hospital for routine health screenings from 2010 to 2016 were reviewed. The patients were divided into four groups as follows: group 1, nonsarcopenic, nonobese (NS-NO); group 2, nonsarcopenic, obese (NS-O); group 3, sarcopenic, nonobese (S-NO); and group 4, sarcopenic, obese (S-O). Each patient was assessed based on self-reported questionnaires and individual interviews with a healthcare provider. The Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX) was used to assess bone fracture risk. RESULTS Postmenopausal women accounted for 68.5% of the total patient population. The proportion of each group was as follows: NS-NO, 71.2%; NS-O, 17.9%; S-NO, 10.2%; and S-O, 0.7%. Statistical analysis of various parameters associated with metabolic and cardiovascular risks revealed that the S-O group had more patients with hypertension, diabetes, osteopenia, and metabolic syndrome. The FRAX scores were significantly higher in the S-O group than in other groups. CONCLUSIONS Middle-aged women with obesity and reduced muscle mass, known as sarcopenic obesity, are at increased risk of hypertension, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, sarcopenic obesity, individual cardiometabolic risks, and menopause can increase the bone fracture risk.

Abstract
Sarcopenic obesity is defined as the coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity in the same individual, characterized by of the co-presence of body fat accumulation and muscle loss. This condition is currently a major concern as it is associated with frailty and disabilities such as cardiovascular disease, fractures, dementia, cancer, and increased all-cause mortality. Particularly, older individuals remain at risk of sarcopenic obesity. Progress at several levels is needed to improve the global prognostic outlook for this condition, including the elaboration and implementation of a more uniform definition that may favor the identification and specification of prevalence by age group. Furthermore, improvements in the understanding of the pathogenesis of sarcopenic obesity may lead to the development of more specific therapeutic interventions to improve prognosis. We reviewed the knowledge on sarcopenic obesity and its associations with cardiovascular diseases and mortality.

Abstract
Aging and obesity are two global concerns in public health. Sarcopenic obesity (SO), defined as the combination of age-related sarcopenia and obesity, has become a pressing issue. This systematic review and meta-analysis summarize the current clinical evidence relevant to SO. PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were searched, and 106 clinical studies with 167,151 elderlies were included. The estimated prevalence of SO was 9% in both men and women. Obesity was associated with 34% reduced risk of sarcopenia (odds ratio [OR] 0.66, 95% CI 0.48-0.91; p < 0.001). The pooled hazard ratio (HR) of all-cause mortality was 1.51 (95% CI 1.14-2.02; p < 0.001) for people with SO compared with healthy individuals. SO was associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and related mortality, metabolic disorders, cognitive impairment, arthritis, functional limitation, and lung diseases (all ORs > 1.0, p < 0.05). The attenuated risk of sarcopenia in elderlies with obesity ("obesity paradox") was dependent on higher muscle mass and strength. Apart from unifying the diagnosis of SO, more research is needed to subphenotype people with obesity and sarcopenia for individualized treatment. Meanwhile, the maintenance of proper body composition of muscle and fat may delay or attenuate the adverse outcomes of aging.

Abstract
CONTEXT Low skeletal muscle mass often accompanies abdominal obesity in the aging process. OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate the effect of reduced skeletal muscle mass and its interaction with abdominal obesity on incident type 2 diabetes. METHODS This retrospective longitudinal study included a total of 36,304 diabetes-free Koreans who underwent two or more health check-ups annually or biennially. Appendicular skeletal muscle mass was measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis and was presented as a skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) adjusted for body weight. Pre-sarcopenia was defined as an SMI <1 standard deviation of the sex-specific mean for a healthy young reference group. Abdominal obesity was defined using waist circumference ≥ 90 cm for men and ≥ 85 cm for women. Participants were classified into four groups of normal, pre-sarcopenia alone, abdominal obesity alone, and pre-sarcopenic obesity according to initial body composition. RESULTS The cumulative incidence of diabetes was 9.1% during the 7-year follow-up. Compared with the highest tertile, the lowest sex-specific SMI tertile was significantly associated with a greater risk of incident type 2 diabetes (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 1.31, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.18-1.45) in a fully adjusted model. Pre-sarcopenic obesity significantly increased incident diabetes risk (adjusted HR = 1.57, 95% CI 1.42-1.73) compared with normal body composition, pre-sarcopenia alone, or abdominal obesity alone. CONCLUSIONS Low skeletal muscle mass and its coexistence with abdominal obesity additively increased the risk of incident type 2 diabetes independent of the glycometabolic parameters.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify the frequency of clinical suspicion of sarcopenic obesity (CSSO) and probable sarcopenic obesity (PSO) and to estimate the association between them and surgical menopause. METHODS A cross-sectional study carried out in women residing in Colombia, ages 60 to 75 years. Body mass index, the SARC-F scale, SARC-CalF < 31, and SARC-CalF <33 versions adding the calf circumference measurement in the last two were used to identify CSSO. Muscle strength measurement was added to the above measures to establish PSO. Surgical menopause was defined in women who underwent bilateral oophorectomy simultaneously with hysterectomy before natural menopause. Adjusted and unadjusted logistic regression were performed between CSSO or PSO with surgical menopause, bilateral oophorectomy after natural menopause, and abdominal hysterectomy with ovarian preservation. All participants provided informed consent. P < 0.05 was statistically significant. RESULTS Seven hundred women 67.0 ± 4.8 years old were included; 23.7% were obese, 68.1% had reduced muscle strength, and 4.2% had surgical menopause. CSSO was found in 3.0% with SARC-F and with SARC-CalF < 31; whereas 2.0% were found with SARC-CalF <33. PSO was found in 2.4%, 1.5%, and 2.2% with SARC-F, SARC-CalF <31, and SARC-CalF <33, respectively. Surgical menopause was associated with PSO but was not associated with CSSO. Bilateral oophorectomy after menopause and hysterectomy with ovarian preservation were not associated with CSSO or PSO. CONCLUSIONS In a group of older adult women, the frequency of CSSO was up to 3.0% and PSO up to 2.4%. Surgical menopause was statistically significantly associated with PSO. On the contrary, CSSO was not associated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Hypertension may lead to disability and death by increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease, kidney failure, and dementia. This study aimed to determine the association between obesity, sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity, and hypertension in adults resident in Ravansar, a city in the west of Iran. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted on 4,021 subjects from the baseline data of the Ravansar Non-Communicable Disease (RaNCD) cohort study, in the west region of Iran, from October 2014 up to February 2017. Body composition was categorized into obese, sarcopenia, sarcopenic obese, and normal based on measurements of muscle strength, skeletal muscle mass, and waist circumference. Univariate and multiple logistic regression models were used to examine the relationships, using the STATA 15 software. RESULTS The mean age of the participant was 47.9 years (SD: 8.4), the body mass index (BMI) was 26.84 kg/m2 (SD: 4.44), and the prevalence of hypertension was 15.12%. The prevalence of obesity, sarcopenia, and sarcopenic obesity were 24.37, 22.01, and 6.91%, respectively. Body composition groups had significant differences in age, total calorie intake, BMI, skeletal muscle mass, and muscle strength (P-value ≤ 0.001). In crude model, the obese (OR = 2.64; 95% CI: 2.11-3.30), sarcopenic (OR = 2.45; 95% CI: 1.94-3.08), and sarcopenic obese (OR = 3.83; 95% CI: 2.81-5.22) groups had a higher odds of hypertension. However, in adjusted models, only the obese group had a higher likelihood of hypertension (OR = 2.18; 95% CI: 1.70-2.80). CONCLUSION This study showed that obesity was associated with hypertension, whereas sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity had no significant relationship with hypertension.

Abstract
Rare gain of function mutations in the gene encoding Dyrk1b, a key regulator of skeletal muscle differentiation, have been associated with sarcopenic obesity (SO) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in humans. So far, the global gene networks regulated by Dyrk1b during myofiber differentiation have remained elusive. Here, we have performed untargeted proteomics to determine Dyrk1b-dependent gene-network in differentiated C2C12 myofibers. This analysis led to identification of translational inhibitor, 4e-bp1 as a post-transcriptional target of Dyrk1b in C2C12 cells. Accordingly, CRISPR/Cas9 mediated knockout of Dyrk1b in zebrafish identified 4e-bp1 as a downstream target of Dyrk1b in-vivo. The Dyrk1b knockout zebrafish embryos exhibited markedly reduced myosin heavy chain 1 expression in poorly developed myotomes and were embryonic lethal. Using knockdown and overexpression approaches in C2C12 cells, we found that 4e-bp1 enhances autophagy and mediates the effects of Dyrk1b on skeletal muscle differentiation. Dyrk1bR102C, the human sarcopenic obesity-associated mutation impaired muscle differentiation via excessive activation of 4e-bp1/autophagy axis in C2C12 cells. Strikingly, the defective muscle differentiation in Dyrk1bR102C cells was rescued by reduction of autophagic flux. The identification of Dyrk1b-4e-bp1-autophagy axis provides significant insight into pathways that are relevant to human skeletal muscle development and disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although low muscle mass may make an under-appreciated contribution to increasing the risk of cardiovascular diseases, no prospective studies have explored the association between low muscle mass and carotid atherosclerosis. We investigated whether muscle mass was related to a higher carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT) and carotid artery plaque in a community-based population. METHODS The study included 1,253 asymptomatic participants without known cardiovascular disease, who underwent carotid ultrasonography at baseline in 2013-2014 and received a re-examination in 2015-2016. The skeletal muscle mass index was estimated using a bioelectrical impedance analyzer. We assessed the relationship between the skeletal muscle mass index and the development of C-IMT and carotid plaque, both, using multivariate-adjusted logistic regression models. RESULTS During the follow up, 400 (51.0%) subjects with normal C-IMT at baseline developed elevated C-IMT and 215 (17.2%) subjects developed carotid plaque. The risk of elevated C-IMT occurrence linearly decreased with an increase in skeletal muscle mass index quintiles or its continuous data, after multivariate-adjustment in men and women, respectively (both P for trend < 0.05; both P < 0.05). Subgroup analyses showed that this association was BMI-dependent. Besides, there was an inverse association between a high skeletal muscle mass index and carotid artery plaque in women, but the association disappeared after multivariate adjustment. In men, the skeletal muscle mass index was not associated with the incidence of carotid plaque. CONCLUSIONS Skeletal muscle mass was inversely associated with the incidence of carotid atherosclerosis, suggesting muscle mass maintenance may play a role in modifying atherosclerosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An aggravation in pre-existing sarcopenia or the onset of sarcopenia may occur in the scenario of extensive and fast weight loss in the initial months following bariatric surgery. The accurate identification of sarcopenia criteria and its metabolic repercussions is vital for its correct management. The aim of this study is to evaluate the correlation between the diagnosis criteria for sarcopenia and metabolic repercussions during the first 6 months following bariatric surgery. METHODS A prospective single-center cohort study was conducted. Convenience sampling was performed among patients with severe obesity undergoing preoperative evaluation for bariatric surgery. Metabolic parameters, nutritional evaluation, and skeletal muscle evaluation were assessed before surgery and 6 months later. RESULTS A total of 129 patients were selected, 62 participants were included in the final analysis. Mean age was 37.7 years and 88.4% of participants were women. Mean body mass index was 41.8 kg/m2 and 47.8% of patients were sedentary. Sleeve gastrectomy was performed in 41 patients and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in 21 patients. Significant improvement regarding muscle strength and function after surgery was observed. Sarcopenia criteria were not met by any participant before and after surgery. Blood glucose and ferritin levels remained independently associated with change in muscle strength. CONCLUSIONS Functional evaluation methods did not reflect the reduction in skeletal muscle mass demonstrated in bioelectrical impedance analysis 6 months after bariatric surgery in comparison to the preoperative baseline. Improvement in muscle strength was followed by improvement in metabolic parameters.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with an increased risk of fractures, mainly due to impaired bone architecture and microvascular complications. Whether DM is also associated with increased risk of sarcopenia is not yet known, with studies yielding inconclusive results. The aim of this study was to systematically review and synthesize the best available evidence regarding the association between DM and sarcopenia risk. A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, CENTRAL and Scopus databases. Data are expressed as odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). The I2 index was employed for heterogeneity. Only studies which had implemented at least two of the three criteria for sarcopenia diagnosis (low muscle mass, muscle strength and/or muscle performance), as defined by the international studying groups, were included. Fifteen studies fulfilled eligibility criteria, yielding a total of 1832 patients with type 2 DM (T2DM) and 1159 cases of sarcopenia. Patients with T2DM demonstrated a higher risk of sarcopenia compared with euglycemic subjects (OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.25-1.91, p < 0.001; I2 34.6%). This risk remained significant when analysis was restricted to studies matched for age and sex. Sarcopenia risk was independent of disease definition or study design. Notably, T2DM patients presented lower muscle performance and strength compared with euglycemic subjects, whereas no difference in muscle mass was observed between groups. Patients with T2DM have an increased risk of sarcopenia compared with euglycemic subjects.

Abstract
Background
In the last two decades, a new phenotype termed Sarcopenic Obesity (SO), in which sarcopenia and obesity coexist, has emerged. Objective
The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was first to assess the prevalence of Metabolic syndrome (Mets) among individuals with and without SO, and second, to determine if SO may increase the relative risk of Mets. Methods
This study was conducted in adherence to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and the data were collated by means of meta-analysis and narrative synthesis. Results
Twelve studies including a total of 11,308 adults with overweight or obesity of both genders met the inclusion criteria and were reviewed, revealing two main findings. First, a similar overall prevalence of Mets in individuals with SO (61.49%; 95% CI: 52.19-70.40) when compared to those without SO (56.74%; 95% CI: 47.32-65.93) was identified. Second, the presence of SO appears not to increase the risk of Mets with respect to those without SO (RR = 1.08, 95% CI: 0.99-1.17, p = 0.07). Conclusion
No higher prevalence of Mets among individuals with SO when compared to those with obesity only, nor a significant association between SO and a higher risk of Mets was found.

Abstract
The prevalence of sarcopenic obesity is increasing worldwide, particularly amongst aging populations. Insulin resistance is the core mechanism of sarcopenic obesity and is also associated with variable cardiometabolic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Fat accumulation in muscle tissue promotes a proinflammatory cascade and oxidative stress, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction, impaired insulin signaling, and muscle atrophy. To compound the problem, decreased muscle mass aggravates insulin resistance. In addition, the crosstalk between myokines and adipokines leads to negative feedback, which in turn aggravates sarcopenic obesity and insulin resistance. In this review, we focus on the molecular mechanisms linking sarcopenic obesity and insulin resistance with various biological pathways. We also discuss the impact and mechanism of sarcopenic obesity and insulin resistance on cardiometabolic disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The recognized benefits of a higher protein diet on muscle mass and strength in older adults are tempered by concerns of the potentially negative cardiometabolic impact of dietary sources of animal protein. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to explore the cardiometabolic impact of 2 weight reduction diets: a higher protein diet, providing balanced portions of lean beef and pork throughout the day, vs. a diet following the Recommended Daily Allowance level of protein in obese middle-aged and older adults. METHODS Data from Measuring Eating, Activity and Strength: Understanding the Response-Using Protein and Protein Optimization in Women Enables Results-Using Protein were combined for the present analysis. Subjects were randomly assigned to a 6-month weight loss diet (500 kcal deficit) and prescribed a Recommended Daily Allowance level of protein (0.8 g protein/kg BW), control group, or a higher level of protein (1.2 g protein/kg BW), protein group. For the protein group, lean, high-quality protein was evenly distributed between meals or balanced throughout the day (30 g protein/meal). The following cardiometabolic markers were quantified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy: lipids, lipoproteins, GlycA, trimethylamine-N-oxide, betaine, branched-chain amino acids, and lipoprotein insulin resistance index scores. RESULTS In both groups (control [n = 27] and protein [n = 53]), there were significant (P ≤ .05) changes from baseline in weight loss (-6.2% and -7.2%), distance walked (+53.1 and +75.0 meters), and fasting plasma glucose (-7.5 and -6.2 mg/dL), respectively. At endpoint, protein group had significantly (P ≤ .05) lower triglycerides (-17.3 mg/dL), large very-low-density lipoprotein particle concentration (VLDL-P; -1.2 nmol/L), total low-density lipoprotein particle concentration (LDL-P; -67.8 nmol/L), small LDL-P (-59.4 nmol/L) and lipoprotein insulin resistance index (-5.9), whereas control group had significantly (P ≤ .05) lower GlycA (-13.1 μmol/L), total VLDL-P (-7.9 nmol/L), and small VLDL-P (-7.0 nmol/L). Differences between groups were observed for small VLDL-P (P = .02) and protein intake (P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that a hypocaloric diet with either traditional (0.8 g/kg BW/d) or higher protein (1.2 g/kg BW/d; predominantly from lean red meat) content improves risk markers of cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes in obese middle-aged and older adults. Both diets were also associated with improved physical function, and neither had an adverse impact on cardiometabolic outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine whether multiple weight cycles in adulthood are an independent predictor of lower muscle mass and reduced strength, with potential implication for sarcopenia in adults with obesity. METHODS A total of 60 males and 147 females with obesity were included, with a mean BMI of 37.9 ± 6.0 kg/m2 and a mean age of 52.6 ± 12.4 years. Muscle strength was evaluated with handgrip and appendicular skeletal muscle mass was measured with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. RESULTS Participants were categorized into the following three groups: non-weight cyclers, mild weight cyclers, and severe weight cyclers. From a binary logistic regression that considered muscle mass categories as a dependent variable and weight cycling categories, age, and sex as independent variables, severe weight cyclers showed a 3.8-times increased risk of low muscle mass (95% CI: 1.42-10.01). Considering handgrip strength categories as a dependent variable and weight cycling categories, age, sex, and BMI as independent variables, severe weight cycling was associated with an increased risk of low muscle mass (about 6.3 times, 95% CI: 1.96-20.59). Severe weight cyclers showed a 5.2-times greater risk of developing sarcopenia. CONCLUSIONS In adults with obesity, weight cycling is associated with lower muscle mass and strength and a greater likelihood of developing sarcopenic obesity.

Abstract
Obesity is known to cause skeletal muscle wasting. This study investigated the effect and the possible mechanism of fish oil on skeletal muscle wasting in an obese rat model. High-fat (HF) diets were applied to induce the defects of lipid metabolism in male Sprague-Dawley rats with or without substitution of omega-3 fatty acids-enriched fish oil (FO, 5%) for eight weeks. Diets supplemented with 5% FO showed a significant decrease in the final body weight compared to HF diet-fed rats. The decreased soleus muscle weights in HF diet-fed rats could be improved by FO substitution. The decreased myosin heavy chain (a muscle thick filament protein) and increased FOXO3A and Atrogin-1 (muscle atrophy-related proteins) protein expressions in soleus muscles of HF diet-fed rats could also be reversed by FO substitution. FO substitution could also significantly activate adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation, peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ) coactivator 1α (PGC-1α), and PPARγ protein expression and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mRNA expression in soleus muscles of HF diet-fed rats. These results suggest that substitution of FO exerts a beneficial improvement in the imbalance of lipid and muscle metabolisms in obesity. AMPK/PGC-1α signaling may play an important role in FO-prevented obesity-induced muscle wasting.

Abstract
Importance Increased ability to quantify anatomical phenotypes across multiple organs provides the opportunity to assess their cumulative ability to identify individuals at greatest susceptibility for adverse outcomes. Objective To apply unsupervised machine learning to define the distribution and prognostic importance of computed tomography-based multiorgan phenotypes associated with adverse health outcomes. Design, Setting, and Participants This asymptomatic community-based cohort study included 2924 Framingham Heart Study participants between July 2002 and April 2005 undergoing computed tomographic imaging of the chest and abdomen. Participants are from the offspring and third-generation cohorts. Exposures Eleven computed tomography-based measures of valvular/vascular calcification, adiposity, and muscle attenuation. Main Outcomes and Measures All-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease (myocardial infarction, stroke, or cardiovascular death). Results The median age of the participants was 50 years (interquartile range, 43-60 years), and 1422 (48.6%) were men. Principal component analysis identified 3 major anatomic axes: (1) global calcification (defined by aortic, thoracic, coronary, and valvular calcification); (2) adiposity (defined by pericardial, visceral, hepatic, and intrathoracic fat); and (3) muscle attenuation that explained 65.7% of the population variation. Principal components showed different evolution with age (continuous increase in global calcification, decrease in muscle attenuation, and U-shaped association with adiposity) but similar patterns in men and women. Using unsupervised clustering approaches in the offspring cohort (n = 1150), we identified a cohort (n = 232; 20.2%) with an unfavorable multiorgan phenotype across all 3 anatomic axes as compared with a favorable multiorgan phenotype. Membership in the unfavorable phenotypic cluster was associated with a greater prevalence of cardiovascular disease risk factors and with increased all-cause mortality (hazard ratio, 2.61; 95% CI, 1.74-3.92; P < .001), independent of coronary artery calcium score, visceral adipose tissue, and 10-year global cardiovascular disease Framingham risk, and it provided improvement in metrics of discrimination and reclassification. Conclusions and Relevance This proof-of-concept analysis demonstrates that unsupervised machine learning, in an asymptomatic community cohort, identifies an unfavorable multiorgan phenotype associated with adverse health outcomes, especially in elderly American adults. Future investigations in larger populations are required not only to validate the present results, but also to harness clinical, biochemical, imaging, and genetic markers to increase our understanding of healthy cardiovascular aging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity is referred to as sarcopenic obesity (SO) and it has been hypothesized that the two components of SO may synergistically increase their negative effects. However, many uncertainties still surround this condition especially with regard to its potential negative effects on health outcomes.
AIM To conduct a systematic review to determine the prevalence of sarcopenia among adults with overweight and obesity and to investigate whether SO was associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D).
METHODS This study was conducted in adherence with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Literature searches, study selection, methodology development and quality appraisal were performed independently by two authors and the data were collated by means of meta-analysis and narrative synthesis.
RESULTS Of the 606 articles retrieved, 11 studies that comprised a total of 60118 adults with overweight and obesity of both genders met the inclusion criteria and were reviewed, revealing two main findings. First, the overall prevalence of sarcopenia is 43% in females and 42% in males who are with overweight and obesity. Secondly, the presence of SO increases the risk of T2D by 38% with respect to those without SO (OR = 1.38, 95%CI: 1.27-1.50).
CONCLUSION A high prevalence of sarcopenia has been found among adults with overweight and obesity regardless of their gender and this condition seems to be associated with a higher risk of T2D. Clinician should be aware of this scenario in their clinical practice for the better management of both obesity and T2D.

Abstract
High-fat (HF) diets in combination with sedentary lifestyle represent one of the major public health concerns predisposing to obesity and diabetes leading to skeletal muscle atrophy, decreased fiber diameter and muscle mass with accumulation of fat tissue resulting in loss of muscle strength. One strategy to overcome the maleficent effects of HF diet is resistance training, a strategy used to improve muscle mass, reverting the negative effects on obesity-related changes in skeletal muscle. Together with resistance training, supplementation with creatine monohydrate (CrM) in the diet has been used to improve muscle mass and strength. Creatine is a non-essential amino acid that is directly involved in the cross-bridge cycle providing a phosphate group to ADP during the initiation of muscle contraction. Besides its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects CrM also upregulates IGF-1 resulting in hyperthophy with an increase in muscle function. However, it is unknown whether CrM supplementation during resistance training would revert the negative effects of high-fat diet on the muscle performance. During 8 weeks we measured muscle performance to climb a 1.1m and 80° ladder with increasing load on trained rats that had received standard diet or high-fat diet, supplemented or not with CrM. We observed that the CrM supplementation up-regulated IGF-1 and phospho-AKT protein levels, suggesting an activation of the IGF1-PI3K-Akt/PKB-mTOR pathway. Moreover, despite the CrM supplementation, HF diet down-regulated several proteins of the IGF1-PI3K-Akt/PKB-mTOR pathway, suggesting that diet lipid content is crucial to maintain or improve muscle function during resistance training.

Abstract
Sarcopenic obesity, a chronic condition, is today a major public health problem with increasing prevalence worldwide, which is due to progressively aging populations, the increasing prevalence of obesity, and the changes in lifestyle during the last several decades. Patients usually present to healthcare facilities for obesity and related comorbidities (type 2 diabetes mellitus, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease) or for non-specific symptoms related to sarcopenia per se (e.g., fatigue, weakness, and frailty). Because of the non-specificity of the symptoms, sarcopenic obesity remains largely unsuspected and undiagnosed. The pathogenesis of sarcopenic obesity is multifactorial. There is interplay between aging, sedentary lifestyle, and unhealthy dietary habits, and insulin resistance, inflammation, and oxidative stress, resulting in a quantitative and qualitative decline in muscle mass and an increase in fat mass. Myokines, including myostatin and irisin, and adipokines play a prominent role in the pathogenesis of sarcopenic obesity. It has been suggested that a number of disorders affecting metabolism, physical capacity, and quality of life may be attributed to sarcopenic obesity, although it is not as yet established whether sarcopenia and obesity act synergistically. There is to date no approved pharmacological treatment for sarcopenic obesity. The cornerstones of its management are weight loss and adequate protein intake combined with exercise, the latter in order to reduce the loss of muscle mass observed during weight loss following diet unpaired with exercise. A consensus on the definition of sarcopenic obesity is considered essential to facilitate the performance of mechanistic studies and clinical trials aimed at deepening our knowledge, thus enabling improved management of affected individuals in the near future.

Abstract
Resistance training and maintenance of a higher protein diet have been recommended to help older individuals maintain muscle mass. This study examined whether adherence to a higher protein diet while participating in a resistance-based exercise program promoted more favorable changes in body composition, markers of health, and/or functional capacity in older females in comparison to following a traditional higher carbohydrate diet or exercise training alone with no diet intervention. In total, 54 overweight and obese females (65.9 ± 4.7 years; 78.7 ± 11 kg, 30.5 ± 4.1 kg/m2, 43.5 ± 3.6% fat) were randomly assigned to an exercise-only group (E), an exercise plus hypo-energetic higher carbohydrate (HC) diet, or a higher protein diet (HP) diet. Participants followed their respective diet plans and performed a supervised 30-min circuit-style resistance exercise program 3 d/wk. Participants were tested at 0, 10, and 14 weeks. Data were analyzed using univariate, multivariate, and repeated measures general linear model (GLM) statistics as well as one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) of changes from baseline with [95% confidence intervals]. Results revealed that after 14 weeks, participants in the HP group experienced significantly greater reductions in weight (E −1.3 ± 2.3, [−2.4, −0.2]; HC −3.0 ± 3.1 [−4.5, −1.5]; HP −4.8 ± 3.2, [−6.4, −3.1]%, p = 0.003), fat mass (E −2.7 ± 3.8, [−4.6, −0.9]; HC −5.9 ± 4.2 [−8.0, −3.9]; HP −10.2 ± 5.8 [−13.2, –7.2%], p < 0.001), and body fat percentage (E −2.0 ± 3.5 [−3.7, −0.3]; HC −4.3 ± 3.2 [−5.9, −2.8]; HP −6.3 ± 3.5 [−8.1, −4.5] %, p = 0.002) with no significant reductions in fat-free mass or resting energy expenditure over time or among groups. Significant differences were observed in leptin (E −1.8 ± 34 [−18, 14]; HC 43.8 ± 55 [CI 16, 71]; HP −26.5 ± 70 [−63, −9.6] ng/mL, p = 0.001) and adiponectin (E 43.1 ± 76.2 [6.3, 79.8]; HC −27.9 ± 33.4 [−44.5, −11.3]; HP 52.3 ± 79 [11.9, 92.8] µg/mL, p = 0.001). All groups experienced significant improvements in muscular strength, muscular endurance, aerobic capacity, markers of balance and functional capacity, and several markers of health. These findings indicate that a higher protein diet while participating in a resistance-based exercise program promoted more favorable changes in body composition compared to a higher carbohydrate diet in older females.

Abstract
Background and aim Sarcopenic obesity is a risk factor of morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to generate a predictive score of sarcopenia occurrence one year after bariatric surgery. Patients and methods We conducted an observational prospective cohort study on a total of 184 severely obese patients admitted to our institution to undergo sleeve gastrectomy. Skeletal muscle cross-sectional area at the third lumbar vertebrae (SMA, cm2) was measured from the routinely performed computed tomography. The skeletal muscle index (SMI) was calculated as follows: SMA/height2 (cm2/m2). Sarcopenia was defined as an SMI < 38.5 cm2/m2 for women and < 52.4 cm2/m2 for men. Measurements were performed at surgery and one year later. Results Most of the included patients were female (79%), with a mean age of 42±0.9 years and body mass index of 43.2±0.5 kg/m2. Fifteen patients (8%) had sarcopenia before surgery and 59 (32%) at the one-year follow-up. Male gender (p<0.0001), SMA before surgery (p<0.0001), and SMI before surgery (p<0.0001) significantly correlated with the occurrence of sarcopenia one year after surgery by multivariate analysis. Two predictive sarcopenia occurrence scores were constructed using SMA and gender (SS1 score) or SMI and gender (SS2 score). The area under receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve of the SS2 score was significantly greater than that of the SS1 score for the diagnosis of postoperative sarcopenia occurrence (0.95±0.02 versus 0.90±0.02; p<0.01). A cut-off value for the SS2 score of 0.53 had a sensitivity of 90%, a specificity of 91%, a positive predictive value of 83%, and a negative predictive value of 95%. In the group of patients without baseline sarcopenia, the SS2 score had still an excellent AUROC of 0.92±0.02. A cut-off of 0.55 predicted development of sarcopenia one year after sleeve gastrectomy in these patients with a sensitivity of 87%, a specificity of 88%, and negative predictive value of 95%. Conclusion The SS2 score has excellent predictive value for the occurrence of sarcopenia one year after sleeve gastrectomy. This score can be used to target early intensification of nutritional and dietetic follow-up to the predicted high-risk population.

Abstract
The associations between sarcopenia and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in non-obese middle-aged and older adults remain controversial. Thus, this meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the overall prevalence of MetS and the correlations between sarcopenia and MetS in middle-aged and older non-obese adults. We performed a systematic searched strategy using PUBMED, EMBASE and Web of Science databases for relevant observational studies investigating sarcopenia and MetS up to 11 May 2017. The polled prevalence of MetS and odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CI), as well as subgroup analyses were calculated using a random effects model. Twelve articles with a total of 35,581 participants were included. The overall prevalence of MetS was 36.45% (95% CI, 28.28–45.48%) in middle-aged and older non-obese adults with sarcopenia. Our analysis demonstrated a positive association between sarcopenia and MetS (OR = 2.01, 95% CI, 1.63–2.47). The subgroup analysis showed that both larger cohort size and the use of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry to measure body composition can enhance the relationship. Our study revealed that a higher proportion of MetS in middle-aged and older non-obese people with sarcopenia. Moreover, sarcopenia was positively associated with MetS in this population. Further large-scale prospective cohort studies are needed to investigate the causality between sarcopenia and MetS.

Abstract
AbstractAndrogen deprivation therapy (ADT) is used widely as part of a combined modality for the treatment of prostate cancer. However, ADT has also been associated with the development of cardiometabolic complications that can increase mortality from cardiovascular events. There is emerging evidence to suggest that ADT-related cardiometabolic risk can be mitigated by diet and lifestyle modification. While the clinical focus for a nutritional approach for achieving this effect is unclear, it may depend upon the timely assessment and targeting of dietary changes to the specific risk phenotype of the patient. The present review aims to address the metabolic origins of ADT-related cardiometabolic risk, existing evidence for the effects of dietary intervention in modifying this risk, and the priorities for future dietary strategies.

Abstract
A number of studies have shown that autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) contribute to an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and worsening of cardiovascular risk factors that could contribute to further CVD over time. These observations, combined with a notable increase in the number of survivors after HCT in recent years, highlight the need for studies aimed at modifying risk or preventing these outcomes by changing specific approaches and/or post-HCT interventions. To address these issues, the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute and National Cancer Institute co-sponsored an international initiative on late effects after HCT. This report summarizes the major gaps in knowledge along with detailed recommendations regarding study priorities from the Cardiovascular Disease and Associated Risk Factors Committee, a multidisciplinary panel of international experts. The committee calls for specific studies aimed at understanding and preventing arterial disease and cardiac dysfunction (heart failure, valvular disease, and arrhythmias), as well as decreasing cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and sarcopenic obesity) after HCT.
