Optimal Cutoffs for the Diagnosis of Sarcopenia in Older Chinese Adults

BackgroundThe optimal criteria for sarcopenia in the older Chinese population have not been defined. Consequently, this study aims to determine the optimal cutoffs of grip strength, appendicular skeletal muscle index (ASMI) using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), and gait speed, comprising the...
