Low vitamin D and high parathyroid hormone levels as determinants of loss of muscle strength and muscle mass (sarcopenia): the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam. (2003, background): “strength (57) and are hypothesized to influence sarcopenia”
Dietary factors and low-grade inflammation in relation to overweight and obesity (2011, neutral): “Other studies have also shown a negative association of CRP, IL-6 and TNF-awith muscle strength((228,232)).”
Prevalence of sarcopenia and predictors of skeletal muscle mass in healthy, older men and women. (2002, background): “In longitudinal studies, catabolic cytokines are associated with loss in lean body mass and increased resting energy expenditure in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and HIV infection (32,33), and the catabolic cytokines have also been associated with lower ASM in a cross-sectional analysis of heal”
Skeletal muscle performance and ageing (2017, positive): “reported to be associated with a two-fold to three-fold risk in losing more than 40% of the muscle strength, after 3 years of follow up,(82) with similar results found for TNF-α.(82,184) Animal studies have demonstrated that TNF-α induced skeletal muscle protein breakdown in rats which lead to signi”
Strength, but not muscle mass, is associated with mortality in the health, aging and body composition study cohort. (2006, background): “Markers of inflammation are also related to lower strength (15) and lean mass, as well as to a decline in strength (16).”
Association between cholesterol level and mortality in dialysis patients: role of inflammation and malnutrition.
