Development of a Sarcopenia Score for Sarcopenia Screening in Community-Dwelling Older Adults
Community screening for probable sarcopenia may become more practical with a score built from information already available in routine assessment. Developed in 1,474 older adults, the tool brings together sex, age, BMI, mobility, and SARC-F to help focus attention on those who may need fuller evaluation.
Clinical Outcomes of Selective Nerve Root Block in Patients with Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis with Radiculopathy and Lumbar Disc Herniation with Radiculopathy: A Single-Arm Prospective Longitudinal Study
The early response to selective nerve-root block was substantial in this prospective series of 64 patients with lumbar radiculopathy. Pain and disability improved after treatment, and the six-month recurrence pattern provides a valuable view of how patient trajectories evolve beyond the early post-procedure improvement.
