Associations between gut microbiota and sarcopenia or its defining parameters in older adults: A systematic review by Laurence Lapauw, Aurélie Rutten, Jolan Dupont, Nadjia Amini, Laura Vercauteren, Muriel Derrien, Jeroen Raes, Evelien Gielen

“…Persons with sarcopenia and low muscle parameters have less rich and diverse GM and can be separated from persons with preserved muscle mass and function based on GM‐composition. Sarcopenia and low muscle parameters are also associated with different GM‐taxa at multiple levels, but results were heterogeneous and no causal conclusions could be made due to the cross‐sectional design of the studies. …”
