This article presents a systematic review on the prevalence of sarcopenia in individuals post-stroke. Sarcopenia can have negative impacts on the functionality of these individuals, so it is important to know its prevalence in order to plan specific interventions. The review included 28 studies, totaling 6,307 individuals post-stroke. The majority of the studies were conducted in Asia and diagnosed sarcopenia according to the Asian Working Group of Sarcopenia consensus. A prevalence of sarcopenia diagnoses of 38.1% and sarcopenia screenings of 8.7% was observed, with high variability in the methods used. [Extracted from the article]
