Hioka A, Akazawa N, Okawa N, Nagahiro S
Clin Nutr ESPEN . 2024 Nov; 65():59-63. PMID: 39557337
Background & Aims: In the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019 guidelines, SARC-F is used to screen for sarcopenia. SARC-F is measured based on five components: strength, assistance with walking,...

Hioka A, Akazawa N, Okawa N, Nagahiro S
Clin Nutr ESPEN . 2024 Mar; 60:73-78. PMID: 38479942
Background & Aims: The European Working Group of Sarcopenia in Older People 2 has emphasized the significance of evaluating not only muscle mass but also muscle quality as a diagnostic...

Hioka A, Akazawa N, Okawa N, Nagahiro S
Eur Geriatr Med . 2022 May; 13(4):789-794. PMID: 35536459
Purpose: The extracellular water-to-total body water ratio (ECW/TBW) is used in bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) for measuring muscle mass; however, ECW/TBW may be affected by several factors common in older...

Hioka A, Akazawa N, Okawa N, Nagahiro S
Nutrition . 2021 Feb; 86:111175. PMID: 33631617
Objective: As the extracellular-to-intracellular water (ECW/ICW) ratio of the thigh is negatively associated with knee extension strength or gait speed in the elderly, an increase in the total body ECW/ICW...

Akazawa N, Harada K, Okawa N, Kishi M, Tamura K, Moriyama H
J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis . 2020 Dec; 30(3):105543. PMID: 33341024
Objectives: The aim of the current study was to examine longitudinal changes in quadriceps muscle mass and intramuscular adipose tissue in chronic stroke survivors. Materials And Methods: In this longitudinal...

Akazawa N, Okawa N, Kishi M, Hino T, Tsuji R, Tamura K, et al.
Nutrition . 2019 Dec; 71:110600. PMID: 31811998
Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the quantitative features of intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps and their association with gait independence in older inpatients. Methods: This...

Akazawa N, Okawa N, Hino T, Tsuji R, Tamura K, Moriyama H
Clin Nutr . 2019 Dec; 39(8):2586-2592. PMID: 31806395
Background & Aims: The relationship between malnutrition risk and intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps in older inpatients remains unclear, although a high rate of malnutrition risk has been observed...

Akazawa N, Okawa N, Hino T, Tsuji R, Tamura K, Moriyama H
Nutr Res . 2019 Apr; 65:71-78. PMID: 30952504
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps and dysphagia in older inpatients. We hypothesized that increased intramuscular adipose tissue of...

Akazawa N, Harada K, Okawa N, Tamura K, Moriyama H
PLoS One . 2019 Jan; 14(1):e0211145. PMID: 30657790
Objective: Relationship between secondary changes in skeletal muscle and body weight in chronic stroke survivors has not yet been carefully examined. The objective of this study was to clarify the...

Akazawa N, Harada K, Okawa N, Tamura K, Moriyama H
PLoS One . 2018 Aug; 13(8):e0201789. PMID: 30071100
Objective: Improving muscle mass and intramuscular fat in the mid-thigh increases the muscle strength of the paretic and non-paretic limbs in ambulatory chronic stroke survivors. There is a remarkable decrease...
