According to European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) sarcopenia includes both a loss of muscle strength and a decline in functional quality in addition to the loss of muscle protein mass. In order to develop strategies to prevent and treat sarcopenia, the risk factors and causes of sarcopenia must be identified. Age-related muscle loss is characterized by the contribution of multiple factors, and there is growing evidence for a prominent role of low-grade chronic inflammation in sarcopenia. The elderly who are less physically active are more likely to have lower skeletal muscle mass and strength and are at increased risk of developing sarcopenia. Resistance training added to aerobic exercise or high-intensity interval training promote numerous changes in skeletal muscle, many of which may help to prevent or reverse sarcopenia. In this review, we provided current information on definition and monitoring, molecular mechanisms, and physical intervention to counteract sarcopenia., A. zembroń-Łacny, W. Dziubek, Ł. Rogowski, E.

Orální komplikace spojené s protinádorovou chemoterapií a transplantací krvetvorných buněk mohou být do značné míry eliminovány dobrou stomatologickou přípravou nemocného před plánovanou onkologickou léčbou a systematickou péčí o dutinu ústní v průběhu chemoterapie. Mezioborová spolupráce a systematická stomatologická péče jsou nejdůležitějšími faktory v prevenci komplikací., The oral complication associated with cancer chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cells transplantation may be prevented by excellent dental evaluation of the patient before onkology therapy and systematic oral hygiene intervention after chemotherapy. A multidisciplinary approach, systematic oral assessment are the most important factors in the prevention of significant complications., Richard Pink, Petr Michl, Petr Tvrdý, Jindřich Pazdera, and Lit.: 21
