Although muscle mass, muscle strength, or functional performance typically serve as the primary endpoints, regulatory agencies have recently emphasized integrating Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) as primary or secondary outcomes in interventional studies. This shift acknowledges the importance of PROMs and Patient-Reported Experience Measures (PREMs) in assessing intervention effectiveness and aligns with patient-centered healthcare models. The aims of this systematic review are 1) to identify all sarcopenia-designed interventional studies that used PROMs/PREMs as the primary or secondary outcome, 2) to identify the different PROMs/PREMs used within those studies, and 3) to summarize the effects of sarcopenia-designed interventions on PROMs/PREMs of sarcopenic participants. For that, a systematic search of databases (Medline, EMBASE, Review- Cochrane Central of Register of Controlled Trials, and PsychINFO (Via Ovid)) was conducted in September 2023. The review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement, and the protocol was registered on Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/zxgwm/). The systematic review identified 17 RCTs as sarcopenia-designed interventional studies reporting PROMs. PROMs covered the assessment of various aspects, including quality of life, depressive symptoms, loneliness/social isolation, daytime sleepiness, insomnia impact, and sleep quality/disturbance. Only one sarcopenia-specific PROM, namely the SarQoL, was reported. The effect of sarcopenia-designed interventions on PROMs showed considerable heterogeneity, underscoring the need for standardization in sarcopenia research by developing a Core Outcome Set (COS). COS in sarcopenia studies would ensure consistent and comparable findings, ultimately enhancing the reliability and effectiveness of interventions.</p>","PeriodicalId":51629,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Frailty & Aging","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141857073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Blood pressure (BP) was measured after 20 to 40 min of rest, while participants sat in an upright position. Drugs were coded according to the Anatomical Therapeutic and Chemical codes. ACEIs were categorized in centrally (ACEI-c) and peripherally (ACEI-p) acting. Blood inflammatory markers, free insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and IGF-binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) were assayed.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Results indicated that 5STS test was significantly and negatively associated with diastolic BP values. However, significance was lost when results were adjusted for ACEI use. Participants on ACEIs were more likely to have greater specific muscle power and higher blood levels of IGFBP-3 than non-ACEI users. When participants were categorized according to ACEI subtypes, those on ACEI-p had higher blood IGF-1 levels compared with ACEI-c users.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The main findings of the present study indicate that ACEI use might influence the association between hypertension-related parameters and neuromuscular parameters in very old adults. Such results may possibly be linked to the effects of ACEI-p on the IGF-1 pathway.</p>","PeriodicalId":51629,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Frailty & Aging","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140875015","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
