Abstract
ACTUALITY. Geriatric syndromes affect the course of chronic diseases. One of the confirmations of this is the frequent detection of sarcopenia in elderly people suffering from type 2nd diabetes. This is directly related to the progression of polyneuropathy, as there is a decrease in muscle strength of the lower extremities. In this paper, we studied the relationship between the development of sarcopenia with the presence and progression of diabetic polyneuropathy in older patients. Early detection of geriatric syndromes in patients leads to multifactorial disease control, which increases the duration and quality of life of older patients.
