Kim: Clinical Implication of Sarcopenia in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Abstract

Recent studies have shown that inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients are affected by altered body composition, especially low muscle mass or sarcopenia. Detection of sarcopenia is important, as it can independently predict osteopenia, sarcopenic obesity, and poor disease outcomes during IBD progress. The challenges are needed to identify diagnostic and managing strategies for sarcopenia in IBD to improve disease outcomes and increase the quality of life in patients with IBD.

Primary sarcopenia  
  Age-related sarcopenia No other cause evident except ageing
Secondary sarcopenia  
  Activity-related sarcopenia Can result from bed rest, sedentary lifestyle, deconditioning or zero-gravity conditions
  Disease-related sarcopenia Associated with advanced organ failure (heart, lung, liver, kidney, brain), inflammatory disease, malignancy or endocrine disease
  Nutrition-related sarcopenia Results from inadequate dietary intake of energy and/or protein, as with malabsorption, gastrointestinal disorders or use of medications that cause anorexia
