简要总结
Sarcopenia is an age-related disease characterized by a progressive decrease in skeletal muscle content and loss of muscle function. Tai Chi exercises have been shown to improve skeletal muscle mass in elderly people suffering from sarcopenia. However, offline interventions are a very labor- and financial-intensive approach. Therefore, researchers designed an artificial intelligence-assisted program and Tai Chi exercise format to investigate whether a remote rehabilitation approach could replace face-to-face interventions
