Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Sarcopenia associated with chronic liver disease is a risk of deteriorating prognosis and falling into a condition requiring long-term care. Therefore, we focused on lifestyle habits in patients with liver disease and conducted research. As a result, we showed that osteoporosis and decreased peak oxygen consumption are associated with a decrease in skeletal muscle mass. These results suggest that sarcopenia associated with liver disease is more likely to be associated with physical inactivity and nutritional factors.
