RESUMEN

Increasing disability-free life expectancy is a crucial issue to optimize active ageing and to reduce the burden of evitable medical costs. One of the main challenges is to develop pragmatic and personalized prevention strategies in order to prevent frailty, counteract adverse outcomes such as falls and mobility disability, and to improve quality of life. Strong evidence reports the effectiveness of exercise interventions to improve various physical parameters and muscle function that are cornerstones of frailty. Other findings also suggest that the interactions between nutrition and physical exercise with or without health behavior promotion prevent the development of frailty. Multimodal programs, including structured exercise, adequate dietary intervention and health behavior promotion, appear increasingly consensual. However, in order for implementation in real-life settings, some pitfalls need to be addressed. In this perspective, structuring and tailoring feasible, acceptable and sustainable interventions to optimize exercise training responses are essential conditions to warrant short, medium and long-term individual benefits. The different components of exercise programs appear to be fairly consensual and effective. However, specific composition of the programs proposed (frequency, intensity, type, time, volume and progressiveness) have to be tailored to individual characteristics and objectives in order to improve exercise responses. The intervention approaches, behavioral strategies and indications for these programs also need to be refined and framed. The main objective of this work is to guide the actions of healthcare professionals and enable them to widely and effectively implement multimodal programs including exercise, nutrition and behavioral strategies in real-life settings.

RESUMEN

The implementation of strategies to prevent mobility disability in seniors at-risk with a strong focus on exercise is a public health imperative. These strategies must follow a pragmatic, structured and personalized approach. In order to obtain short, medium and long-term benefits, it is essential to consider the coordination of adapted physical exercise programs and to harmonize good practices. In support of national policies for the prevention of loss of autonomy, it is important to define clear guidelines to conduct effective programs. These programs should have a strong emphasis on evidence-based literature and should be validated by a consensus of multi-professional experts. The aim of this consensus is to outline the steps implementing these programs, to present their constituent elements and their practical application. Conception and elaboration of these programs should include frequency, intensity, duration, type of work, volume and individual progressiveness. Programs should also be focused on a personalised approach to develop participant health education, self-efficacy and empowerment for physical activity to ensure long-term health related behaviours. Moreover, trained professionals must supervise these programs in order to assure participants safety and program effectiveness. These guidelines will support policies for the prevention of loss of autonomy and mobility, throughout their development over the national territory.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia has a significant medical and economic impact. Serum fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19) has recently been described as promoting muscle mass and strength, and could be an interesting marker for early diagnosis of sarcopenia and prevention of its consequences. Ultrasound is a robust non-invasive technique used to measure muscle parameters, which cannot be evaluated by usual body composition measures, but are known to be associated with muscle function. In this cross-sectional cohort study, we aimed to determine whether FGF19 levels were correlated with functional muscle tests and muscle ultrasound parameters. METHODS: Patients over 70 years old with a mobility disability risk were recruited from the cohort of the "well on your feet" mobility loss prevention program. Sarcopenia was diagnosed according to the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older Patients 2 (EWGSOP2) criteria. We have performed functional battery tests, muscle ultrasound measures and bioimpedance spectroscopy. FGF19 levels were measured by the ELISA method. RESULTS: Out of 52 patients involved (34 women, mean age 81.3 years), 30 patients were sarcopenic (15 patients with probable sarcopenia and 15 with certain sarcopenia). Sarcopenic patients were older (mean 82.8 versus 79.6 years, P = 0.033), with higher frailty Fried score (P = 0.006), lower IADL score (P = 0.008), had lower daily protein intakes (P = 0.023) and were less performant to muscle functional tests than non-sarcopenic patients. Serum FGF19 levels were negatively correlated with the SPPB score (rs = 0.28; P = 0.045). FGF19 levels were correlated positively with the pennation angle (rs = 0.31; P = 0.024), but negatively with muscle fiber length (rs = -0.44; P = 0.001). We found no association between FGF19 and muscle thickness (P = 0.243). CONCLUSION: We highlighted in older patients significant correlations between FGF19 levels, pennation angle and muscle fiber length, suggesting that FGF19 could provide an enabling environment for the development of large muscle fibers, as previously suggested in histological studies in mice. However, high FGF-19 levels were unexpectedly associated with a low SPPB score. Further studies are needed to validate and further elucidate these exploratory findings.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Exercise and nutrition are the best targets to tackle mobility issues in community-dwelling older adults. As exercise response relies on multiple factors, improving the understanding of their interactions is a necessity to tailor effective preventive strategies. Based on a prevention care path designed for community-dwelling older adults with mobility disability risk, our main goal was to determine the predictive factors of the response to a multimodal intervention, combining structured exercise training and nutritional counselling. Thus, this study aimed to tailor prevention programs for non-responder participants. METHODS: We analyzed the response of participants to a prevention program and built a multivariate predictive model to highlight the profile of the best responders. The model was based on the likelihood of at least 1 point of short physical performance battery (SPPB) score gain. Inclusion criteria were being aged ≥70 years and having completed a multicomponent group-based supervised training consisting of 20 sessions (10 weeks). RESULTS: A total of 103 participants were included, their mean ± SD age was 81.9 ± 5.7 years. The model demonstrated interactions between baseline SPPB score (OR=0.42; p < 0.001), body mass index (BMI; OR=0.82; p=0.003), and grip strength value (OR=1.15; p=0.008). The highest probability of response was found for participants with low SPPB, normal BMI (21 kg/m2), and high grip strength (27 kg). CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that the response to a multimodal intervention in community-dwelling older adults with mobility disability risk was influenced by the baseline SPPB score, BMI, and grip strength value. To increase the proportion of responders, strategies that could be more effective include constituting more homogenous group, and implementing a specific approach for obese sarcopenic older adults and those with low grip strength by increasing the dose of physical activity and monitoring endurance and mobility activities between sessions. Our results provide important consideration for the development of targeted-interventions.
