Sarcopenia, fatores de risco, prevalência, preditores, idosos, estudo transversalResumo
Enquadramento/Objetivos: A sarcopenia está associada a múltiplas consequências negativas. O objetivo deste estudo foi explorar a prevalência do risco de sarcopenia e os seus possíveis fatores associados em adultos mais velhos na Hungria.
Métodos: Um total de 310 adultos maiores participam neste estúdio transversal. O protocolo do estudo foi registado em clinictrials.gov sob o identificador NCT05313360 a 28 de março de 2022. Os participantes preencheram um questionário que incluía dados demográficos, antecedentes médicos, estado nutricional, nível de atividade física, qualidade de vida relacionada com a saúde e estado geral de saúde. O questionário SARC-F foi utilizado para avaliar o risco de sarcopenia entre os participantes.
Resultados: Os resultados mostram que a prevalência do risco de sarcopenia foi de 26,8%. Os preditores no modelo de regressão univariada incluem a idade (p < 0,001), o número de medicamentos (p < 0,001), o número de consultas (p < 0,001), o número de consultas médicas de ambulatório (p = 0,001), a pontuação do MNA-SF (p < 0,001) e a pontuação do GPAQ (p < 0,001). 0,001). Tras controlando a idade no Bloco 1 (R² = 0,295), o modelo de regressão linear jerárquica multivariado (Bloque 2, R² = 0,483) mostrou que o número de medicamentos (p = 0,013), o número de doenças (p = 0,007), a pontuação do MNA-SF (p < 0,001) e la pontuação total do GPAQ (p = 0,004) foi um indicador independente significativo de um maior risco de sarcopenia.
Conclusão: O número de medicamentos, o número de doenças, o MNA-SF e as pontuações totais do GPAQ predisseram de forma significativa o risco de sarcopenia. Se recomendam estudos longitudinais adicionais para examinar o desenvolvimento da sarcopenia ao longo do tempo.
