Impacts of osteosarcopenia on musculoskeletal health, risks of falls and fractures, and activities of daily living among population aged 50 and above: an age- and sex-matched cross-sectional analysis
Sarcopenia exacerbates osteoporotic patients, particularly women, worsening bone deterioration, increasing fall and fracture risks, and significantly impairing daily activities. Enhancing walking speed and reducing fall risk can boost independence in individuals with osteosarcopenia. Early detection, proper management, and preventive measures are essential for mitigating these adverse outcomes in high-risk individuals.
