In modern standard terminology, it is used almost exclusively as a combining form or as the full adjective 'atrofiat'.
- Atrophied — Having undergone the process of atrophy; an organ, tissue, or muscle reduced in volume, weight, and functional capacity due to lack of activity, malnutrition, or neurological disease.
