AI and wearables join forces to fight muscle loss in seniors
NCT ID NCT07426159
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to improve how we detect and treat sarcopenia—age-related muscle loss that can lead to frailty and disability. Researchers will use artificial intelligence to analyze data from body scans, strength tests, and wearable sensors to identify people at risk early. Then, 120 adults aged 50-70 will receive a personalized 12-week exercise and nutrition plan guided by AI. The goal is to prevent muscle decline and keep older adults stronger and healthier.
