Malnutrition, fatigue, frailty, vulnerability, sarcopenia and cachexia: overlap of clinical features.

Current opinion in clinical nutrition and metabolic care - 1 May 2012

Jeejeebhoy Khursheed N

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Malnutrition, fatigue, frailty, vulnerability, sarcopenia and cachexia all phenotypically present with the same features because they are subject to the operation of similar mechanistic factors. However, the conditions referred to above differ by which mechanism dominates the cause of the clinical condition. This review discusses the overlap and differences, which distinguish as well as unite...
