UrduA recent study highlights the increased risks faced by elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who also suffer from sarcopenia, a condition of age-related muscle loss. The findings indicate that these patients are significantly more likely to experience severe disability, rehospitalization, and even death compared to those without sarcopenia. This research underscores the importance of early detection and intervention in managing sarcopenia, aiming to improve health outcomes and quality of life for elderly diabetics. It provides crucial insights into the growing challenge of sarcopenia within this population.
