Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and sarcopenia are major global public health problems, and their coexistence significantly increases the risk of death. In recent years, this trend has become increasingly prominent in younger populations, posing a major public health challenge. Numerous studies have regarded reduced muscle mass as a reliable indicator for identifying pre-sarcopenia.

Background: Point-of-care ultrasonography has become a valuable tool for assessing diaphragmatic function in critically ill patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation. However, conventional diaphragm ultrasound assessment remains highly operator-dependent and subjective. Previous research introduced automatic measurement of diaphragmatic excursion and velocity using 2D speckle-tracking technology.

Background: Older adults have decreased swallowing-related muscle mass, which may lead to decreased swallowing function. One of the causes of this decrease in muscle mass in older adults is a decrease in swallowing frequency.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between swallowing frequency and swallowing-related muscle mass.

Kinematic alignment is increasingly adopted in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) as a patient-specific strategy to restore native joint anatomy. However, its reliance on static radiographic measurements may not adequately reflect real-world functional biomechanics. This editorial underscores the importance of complementing static assessment with kinetic principles.
