肌少症与肝硬化的研究进展

Research progress of sarcopenia in patients with cirrhosis

肌少症是肝硬化的一种常见合并症,发病率为20%~70%。肌少症暂无诊断金标准,CT为常用的诊断方法。肝硬化发生肌少症的机制是多样的,尽早对合并肌少症者进行干预可改善预后。本文将从肌少症特点、诊断方法、发病机制、治疗与干预方面详细阐述,以期为后续研究提供借鉴。

Sarcopenia is highly prevalent in cirrhosis, with the reported prevalence rate ranging between 20%and 70%. There is no gold standard for the diagnosis of sarcopenia while CT is a common method. The mechanisms of sarcopenia in liver cirrhosis are diverse. Early interventions can improve the prognosis of cirrhosis with sarcopenia. This review summarizes the characteristics, diagnosis methods, mechanisms, treatments and intervention of sarcopenia which aimed to provide a reference for further studies.
