Low skeletal muscle index is linked with lower diaphragm excursion in humans (difference -9.2, 95% CI -14.0 to -4.49).

Diaphragm excursion is associated with muscle mass in humans during deep breathing (p < 0.001 in simple analysis; p < 0.01 in multiple analysis).
“Diaphragm excursion during deep breathing was significantly associated with muscle mass of the extremities, trunk, and whole body (p < 0.001 in simple analysis; p < 0.01 in multiple analysis).”

Sarcopenia is associated with diaphragm excursion in humans (adjusted for age, sex, and stature) (p = 0.024).
“DE during DB was negatively associated with sarcopenia (p = 0.024) and low SMI (p = 0.001).”
