First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study measured muscle mass, grip strength, and walking speed in 145 healthy Turkish adults aged 18-39 and 65-99. The goal was to create reference values specific to the Turkish population, so doctors can better diagnose sarcopenia—a condition where people lose muscle mass and strength as they age. No treatment was tested; this was an observational study to improve diagnostic accuracy.
