Description
Wen Wei and co-authors present a 2026 study on blood signs of muscle loss in people with type 2 diabetes. Muscle loss, called sarcopenia in the paper, is common in this group. The team tested ten combined blood indexes that reflect body-wide swelling. They asked which ones link to muscle loss and which finds it best.
About a third of patients had muscle loss, and about a tenth had a severe form. Seven indexes rose with muscle loss, while three fell as it rose. After full checks, six still rose with it and one still fell. That one index also had the best score for finding both plain and severe loss. It may serve as a cheap screen.
