Summary: | The objective is to examine the separate and joint effects of dynapenia and abdominal obesity on the prevalence of peripheral artery disease (PAD) in older adults of different ages (60-74 and over 75 years old). This study comprised 1293 community-dwelling Chinese participants recruited from Shanghai, China, who were aged at least 60 years (753 women; mean age: 72.0 ± 5.9 years). Dynapenia was defined as low-grip strength (<28.0 kg for males and <18.0 kg for females) but normal skeletal muscle index (≥7.0 kg/m2 for males and ≥5.7 kg/m2 for females). Abdominal obesity was determined according to waist circumference (≥90 cm for males and ≥85 cm for females), and PAD was diagnosed by an ankle-brachial index ≤ 0.9. Binary logistic regression models were performed to determine associations between dynapenia, abdominal obesity, and the combination of dynapenia and abdominal obesity and PAD. According to dynapenia and abdominal obesity status stratified by age (60-74 or over 75), the patients were divided into 4 groups: normal, dynapenia alone, abdominal obesity alone, and co-occurring groups. A logistic regression showed that the co-occurring groups (odds ratio = 4.63, 95% confidence interval = 1.41-15.21) had a higher prevalence of PAD than the normal group after adjusting for the covariates in older adults over 75 years of age. The combination of dynapenia and abdominal obesity increase the prevalence of PAD in older adults over 75 years. The present findings have important implications for the early identification of older adults with PAD and appropriate interventions should be implemented. |
