NCT ID NCT07564830

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at how sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss) is connected to fatigue and orthostatic intolerance (dizziness when standing up) in people aged 65 and older. Researchers will compare 90 older adults with and without sarcopenia to see if those with muscle loss experience more tiredness and dizziness. The goal is to improve how doctors assess and manage these common problems in elderly patients.

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could help doctors better understand how muscle loss relates to tiredness and dizziness in older adults, potentially improving care.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for associations, so it won't directly lead to new therapies. Results may not apply to all older adults.
