“…In the present study, the prevalence rate of sarcopenia was 31.2% in women, whereas it was 21.0% in Japanese community‐dwelling older women in another study . In patients with RA, loss of muscle mass and strength are accelerated compared with those in the healthy population .…”

Aim: To evaluate the prevalence rate and factors associated with sarcopenia in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis.Methods: We enrolled 240 consecutive patients with rheumatoid arthritis aged ≥65 years in this study. We examined clinical data: age, sex, body mass index, disease duration, rheumatoid factor positivity, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody positivity, biological or target synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug use, methotrexate use, glucocorticoid use, Creactive protein level, disease activity score in 28 joints-erythrocyte sedimentation rate, Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index, bone mineral density of the lumbar spine and total hip, grip strength, gait speed, and relative skeletal muscle mass index by bioelectrical impedance analysis. Sarcopenia was defined according to a consensus report by the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia. Results:The prevalence rate of sarcopenia was found to be 29.6%. Multivariate analysis identified the following factors to be associated with sarcopenia: age (P = 0.008; odds ratio 1.08), body mass index (P < 0.001; odds ratio 0.73), C-reactive protein (P = 0.017; odds ratio 1.76) and hip bone mineral density (P = 0.037; odds ratio 0.61). Conclusions:The sarcopenia-associated factors were age, body mass index, C-reactive protein and hip bone mineral density in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Because the Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index, a standard measurement of function, cannot predict sarcopenia, the muscle mass needs to be measured while assessing changes in grip strength, body mass index, C-reactive protein and hip bone mineral density.

“…Dear Editor, In a recent study published in this journal, Momoki et al reported that age, body mass index (BMI), dietary variety score (DVS), locomotive syndrome and household status were associated with sarcopenia. 1 This study showed the early intervention point for older women to prevent sarcopenia. Prevention is particularly important, because sarcopenia is associated with impairment and functional decline.…”

“…In a recent study published in Geriatrics & Gerontology International, Nakagawa et al reported important findings. 1 Regular gum chewing exercises (GCE) might improve resting saliva secretion and occlusal force, and contribute to the prevention of malnutrition and maintenance of quality of life in frail older people. However, we have several concerns regarding the methodological procedures of the research.…”

Aim: Elderly individuals face the risk of reductions in saliva secretion and occlusal force caused by systemic diseases or medications that can eventually result in malnutrition and systemic complications. We tested the hypothesis that regular gum chewing exercises (GCE) would enhance saliva secretion and occlusal force in an elderly population. Methods:A total of 12 community-dwelling elderly individuals (3 men and 9 women) participated in this study after providing informed consent. Participants carried out GCE regimens using a soft gum (GCE-S) or hard gum (GCE-H) for 2 weeks each, with a 2-week rest period between trials. Mucosal moisture on the tongue surface, resting saliva, and occlusal force were measured before and after each test gum, and changes in parameters at relevant time-points were statistically analyzed. Differences in each measurement item were assessed using the Friedman test for before and after the GCE. We used the Holm's correction for multiple comparisons if the Friedman test results were significant. The critical value for rejecting the null hypothesis was set at P < 0.05. Results:Resting saliva secretion significantly increased after GCE-S, returned to baseline levels during the rest period and significantly increased again after GCE-H. Mucosal moisture and occlusal force followed a similar trend, with a significant rise after GCE-H. Conclusions:The results of the present study suggest that GCE can increase resting saliva secretion and occlusal force in elderly individuals. Further investigations are required on the appropriate use of soft and hard gums to address oral frailty in elderly individuals. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2017; 17: 48-53.

Several studies have indicated that physical performance 7,8) , osteoporosis 9) , sagittal spine imbalance, and sarcopenia 10) are indicators for LS.
