Care Model for Sarcopenic Obesity in Older Adults
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests a new care approach for older adults who have both excess body fat and muscle loss (sarcopenic obesity). The goal is to help improve muscle strength, physical function, and body composition.
