Cognitive Sarcopenia: Prevalence and the Risk for Mortality and Healthy Aging in the KORA‐Age Study

Since life expectancy and relevant healthcare have not advanced considerably since study baseline, we expect that these results are relevant today. The high prevalence of cognitive impairment in older adults with probable sarcopenia and the increased risk of cognitive sarcopenia on lifespan and independence endorse screening for cognitive impairment in older adults with probable sarcopenia by EWGSOP 2018 and support exploring intervention studies targeting both diseases simultaneously.

Abstract

Since life expectancy and relevant healthcare have not advanced considerably since study baseline, we expect that these results are relevant today. The high prevalence of cognitive impairment in older adults with probable sarcopenia and the increased risk of cognitive sarcopenia on lifespan and independence endorse screening for cognitive impairment in older adults with probable sarcopenia by EWGSOP 2018 and support exploring intervention studies targeting both diseases simultaneously.
