Other related information

This study utilizes Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) method, consisting of wearable sensors, a compact measurement unit, and cloud computing, to explore its correlation with sarcopenia diagnosis, which involves assessments of grip strength and physical function. Measurements using the developed EIT device are conducted on patients visiting research facilities, and the results are analyzed. Additionally, the study evaluates the utility of longitudinal EIT assessments in patients with Werner syndrome, a condition characterized by accelerated aging. The objectives of this research are: 1) To evaluate whether the EIT method can serve as an alternative approach for diagnosing sarcopenia, and 2) To determine whether the EIT method can longitudinally assess sarcopenia. The study design includes a cross-sectional study for objective 1 and a prospective cohort study for objective 2. Objective 1 includes participants without specifying the type of disease, whereas objective 2 specifically targets patients with Werner syndrome. Recruitment is conducted from December 2023 to March 2028 among those visiting the research facilities. The data collected includes basic demographic information such as age and gender, body composition through impedance measurements, physical function assessments such as the Short Physical Performance Battery, degree of limb edema through ultrasound, and daily living evaluations using questionnaires like the Barthel index and wearable devices.
