Causes and Risk Factors of Muscle Wasting Disorders Muscle wasting can result from a wide range of factors. Chronic diseases such as cancer, kidney disease, and heart failure often contribute to muscle loss due to inflammation and metabolic changes. Neuromuscular conditions, including muscular dystrophy and motor neuron diseases, directly damage muscle tissue or nerve signaling. Aging-related muscle loss, known as sarcopenia, is also a significant contributor. Ref - https://www.marketresearchfuture.com/reports/muscle-wasting-disorders-market-22741
