Dr. Alfonso José Cruz-Jentoft. Sarcopenia: Revised European consensus on definiton and diagnosis

In 2010, the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) published a sarcopenia definition that aimed to foster advances in identifying and caring for people with sarcopenia. This publication currently has over 3000 citations. In early 2018, the Working Group met again (EWGSOP2) to update the original definition in order to reflect scientific and clinical evidence that has built over the last decade. This paper presents the updated findings.
