When drastically exacerbated, these two processes culminate in a condition known as sarcopenic obesity (SO). SO is characterised by the coexistence of obesity and sarcopenia (i.e. reduced muscle mass and function) and is a growing public health problem in the elderly. The health risks of obesity and sarcopenia act synergistically, maximising the risk of disability of OS. The molecular mechanisms underlying OS are largely unknown. Increased fat mass induces chronic systemic inflammation and alters the profiles of adipokines and hormones, promoting the development of sarcopenia. On the other hand, the reduction in muscle tissue (SM) typical of sarcopenia is characterised by an alteration in the metabolic properties of skeletal muscle with an increase in insulin resistance and a reduction in energy expenditure that favours the accumulation and dysfunction of adipose tissue (AT). The cellular alterations that would seem to underlie OS are: altered autophagy, cellular senescence, epigenetic and mitochondrial alterations and maladaptive activation of intra- and intercellular inflammatory circuits (e.g. cytokines, extracellular vesicles, dysfunctional circulating leukocytes). However, the interconnections between these mechanisms are still unclear. The impact of OS can be dramatic on the health and quality of life of those affected. Therefore, the identification of early biomarkers that can recognise overweight and obese individuals at risk of developing SO is of paramount importance. This would shed light on the heterogeneity of an otherwise homogeneous clinical condition, opening new horizons towards the conscious design of more personalised therapeutic strategies, allowing a more rational use of the limited resources available for the growing elderly population.\n\nThe study design designed to achieve this aim is a cross-sectional observational study with an additional multicentre procedure lasting two years.",[27],"2025-06-17",{"date":191,"type":33},"2025-06-18",{"date":193,"type":33},"2023-05-22",{"date":195,"type":19},"2025-12-31",{"name":197,"class":40},"IRCCS San Raffaele",{"id":199,"slug":200,"hasResults":11,"nctId":201,"briefTitle":202,"officialTitle":203,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":204,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":15,"minAge":205,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":206,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":20,"phases":208,"briefSummary":209,"conditions":210,"keywords":215,"overallStatus":63,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":234,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":235,"startDateStruct":237,"completionDateStruct":239,"leadSponsor":240,"locationsCount":41},"100595306","plant-vs-animal-based-protein-sources-as-an-anabolic-and-metabolic-protective-options-for-so-in-older-adults-100595306","NCT07030738","Plant vs Animal-based Protein Sources as an Anabolic and Metabolic-protective Options for SO in Older Adults","Plant (Legumes) vs Animal-based (Meat) Protein Sources as an Anabolic and Metabolic-protective Options for Sarcopenic Obesity in Older Adults- A Randomized Controlled Trial","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Aged 55 years or older.\n* Diagnosed with obesity.\n* At risk for sarcopenia, based on at least one of the following: Low score on the validated SARC-F-calf questionnaire (as suggested in prior studies).

Sarcopenia is associated with frailty, disability, and increased mortality. With its rising prevalence, obesity further complicates aging, leading to a condition termed \"sarcopenic obesity\" (SO), where sarcopenia coexists with obesity. This combination amplifies risks for physical disability, falls, and fractures in older adults. Although sarcopenia and obesity individually contribute to adverse health outcomes, their combined impact on recovery from hip fractures, particularly femoral neck fractures, is under-researched. Hip fractures severely impact the elderly, with over 40% failing to regain pre-fracture functionality and a mortality rate above 35% within three years post-fracture.\n\nThis study aims to assess the impact of obesity on sarcopenia prevalence and severity in older adults recovering from femoral neck fractures, addressing an essential gap in understanding SO's role in post-fracture rehabilitation outcomes.\n\nObjectives\n\n* To evaluate the prevalence and severity of sarcopenia among normal-weight versus obese elderly adults post-femoral neck fracture.\n* To investigate the association between sarcopenic obesity and functional recovery.\n* To determine whether obesity modifies sarcopenia's impact on rehabilitation outcomes.\n\nRisk-Benefit Statement The study entails minimal risk, as all procedures are non-invasive and consistent with routine rehabilitation practices. The potential benefits include enhanced understanding of sarcopenia's effect on hip fracture recovery, which may inform improved rehabilitation practices. Comprehensive health assessments may also benefit participants' post-fracture care.\n\nStudy Design Overview This prospective observational study includes hospitalized elderly patients undergoing rehabilitation post-femoral neck fracture.

It is stated that obesity is at the basis of the metabolic changes seen in individuals diagnosed with OHS. Also sedentary lifestyle habits, which are common in obese individuals, cause the risk of sarcopenia due to loss of muscle strength and mass, accumulation of adipose tissue in the body, and decreased exercise capacity. Reduced exercise capacity due to obesity has been shown in the literature to strongly interact with mortality risk. As a result of obesity and all this negative picture, impaired emotional state and decreased quality of life are observed in individuals. Simultaneously, sleep parameters are also negatively affected. In particular, increased adipose tissue leads to loss of muscle mass and strength, increased risk of sarcopenia and sleep-related problems.

The concept of sarcopenic obesity has recently taken its place in the literature. In particular, there are very few studies on its relationship with sleep parameters.
