This observational analysis reveals a potential connection between sarcopenia and arrhythmia markers, suggesting important implications for elderly health.
Sarcopenia and cardiac arrhythmias are common in older adults and may have similar processes such as inflammation, fibrosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, and oxidative stress. These processes can cause myocardial remodeling and electrical instability. This study was designed to examine the link between sarcopenia and electrocardiographic (ECG) markers of arrhythmia.
