“…Bioelectrical impendence spectroscopy represents an advance from BIA as it is able to distinguish between extra and intracellular water. This may explain why initial studies suggest that bioelectrical impendence spectroscopy demonstrates better correlation to muscle function tests than BIA (17). At present, DXA is the most widely used method to assess lean mass (as a surrogate for muscle mass) in research studies.…”

Sarcopenia is common in older people and is associated with disability, reduced mobility, hospitalization, and various comorbidities. Although it has been recognized for over a quarter of a century, we do not currently have a universally adopted definition. This limits our ability to compare results from different studies and impedes the development of novel therapies. Although sarcopenia was initially defined purely based on low muscle mass, the importance of measures of muscle function has been realized and these have been included in recent operational definitions. These continue to evolve with some including an assessment of adiposity and others adding further components of musculoskeletal health in a score-based approach. This review describes the importance of reaching a widely accepted method to define sarcopenia in both research and clinical practice. It details the ways in which the definition has changed since its initial inception and explores how it may continue to evolve in the future. The different methods by which components of sarcopenia can be measured are described, and the various advantages and disadvantages of these techniques are evaluated. Clearly, there are several other similar syndromes in older people, such as frailty and cachexia; their relationships and overlap with sarcopenia are also explored.

Objective: To determine the average skeletal muscle mass (SMM) value in young adults as a reference population; to analyze the correlation of gender, and body mass index to the cut off point; and to determine skeletal muscle mass cut off points of population in Bandung, Indonesia.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study involving 199 participants, 122 females and 77 males. The sampling technique used was the multistage random sampling. The participants were those who lived in four major regions in Bandung, Indonesia: Sukajadi, Cicadas, Buah Batu, and Cibaduyut. Results:The average appendicular skeletal mass index (ASMI) in females and males based on body mass index (BMI) were identified. The average ASMI values for normal BMI in females was 5.982±0.462 kg/m 2 while the average ASMI values normal BMI for males was 7.581±0.744 kg/m 2 Conclusions: A correlation between BMI and ASMI that was considered statistically significant was found in females (0.7712; p<0.05) and a very significant correlation was seen in males (0.870; p<0.05). The cut off points were defined by the normal BMI, which were 5.059 for females and 6.093 for males.

Background: Muscle weakness is a risk factor for mortality in haemodialysis (HD) patients; we wished to determine whether measuring the composition of the arm with bioimpedance was associated with arm muscle strength. Methods: We measured pinch strength (PS) and hand grip strength (HGS) in 250 adult HD patients with corresponding post-dialysis multifrequency bioelectrical assessments with segmental body analysis. Results: Mean age 64.0 ± 15.6, 66% male and 45.6% diabetic. The maximum HGS in the dominant or non-fistula arm was 18.9 ± 9.2 kg and PS 4.09 ± 1.96 kg respectively, with a correlation of r = 0.80, p < 0.001. HGS was associated with body cell mass (β 0.37, p < 0.001) and PS with appendicular muscle mass (β 0.06, p < 0.001). Both HGS and PS were independently associated with the ratio of extracellular water (ECW) to total body water (TBW); β -139.5, p = 0.024, β -44.8, p < 0.001 in the arm. The presence of an arterio-venous fistula increased the ECW/TBW ratio in the arm from 0.383 ± 0.009 to 0.390 ± 0.012, p < 0.05. Conclusion: Muscle strength measured by HGS and PS was associated with both markers of whole body and segmental body composition within the arm, particularly ECW/TBW. Bioimpedance measurements and assessment of muscle strength should be measured in the non-fistula arm.
