Description
Muscle loss paired with fat gain is a quiet threat inside type 2 diabetes care. A 2026 letter weighs a Thai study that found this paired state in 16.4 percent of patients. Broader Asian counts run near 26 percent, the letter notes.
The gap likely stems from shifting rules for naming both states. The Thai team's fat-based cutoffs earn praise as the sharper choice. Age and calf size flagged risk, while grip strength guarded against it. The cross-sectional design cannot prove cause, the writers warn. One urban center also limits how far the numbers travel. Shared definitions would firm up the field.
