Sarcopenia in knee osteoarthritis: the association with clinical and sonographic findings, physical function, and nutrition.

We found that patients with sarcopenic OA were older, weaker, undernourished, and restricted in their level of physical activity in the study. Among the methods of determining sarcopenia, ultrasound becomes prominent with its practical, cheap, and easily accessible features. We think that our results will increase the awareness of the presence of sarcopenia in OA patients.
