Abstract:
AIM: Sarcopenia is associated with several factors and medical conditions among older adults, though previous research has shown limitations and inconsistencies, especially regarding chronic kidney disease (CKD). We investigated the clinical and laboratory variables associated with sarcopenia and severe sarcopenia in older adults, focusing on kidney function measures. METHODS: Data from community-dwelling adults aged ≥75 years participating in the SCOPE multicenter prospective cohort study were assessed cross-sectionally. Comprehensive geriatric assessment was conducted; sociodemographic and lifestyle factors, clinical variables and comorbidities, anthropometric and bioelectrical impedance analysis, blood and urine laboratory variables were collected. EWGSOP2 revised criteria were used to define sarcopenia and its severity. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using creatinine and non-creatinine-based equations, and CKD stages were defined accordingly. RESULTS: 1420 participants were included, prevalence of sarcopenia was 10.6 %, and 6 % had severe sarcopenia. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age [OR =1.14; 95 %CI (1.09-1.19)], body mass index (BMI) [0.83 (0.79-0.88)], disability performing instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) [2.61 (1.69-4.06)], Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) score <24 [2.75 (1.62-4.67)], osteoporosis [2.39 (1.55-3.67)], and stage 4 CKD defined by CKD-EPIBTP-B2M, a non-creatinine-based eGFR equation [2.88 (1.11-7.49)], were independently associated with sarcopenia; as were specifically with severe sarcopenia, with more pronounced associations. CONCLUSIONS: In community-dwelling older adults, sarcopenia is a relevant condition and is associated with severe CKD, older age, IADL, cognitive impairments, osteoporosis and low BMI. These factors should be assessed for proper identification and management of older patients with sarcopenia, and even more so with severe sarcopenia.
