We aimed to investigate the relationship between body compositions and locomotive syndrome in older women and derive body composition cutoff values to evaluate locomotive syndrome severity. In total, 236 women were included in this study. The percentage of body fat and skeletal muscle mass index was measured using multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis. The locomotive syndrome severity (stage 0-3) was determined using the standup test, the two-step test, and a self-administered questionnaire. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that the cutoff value for body fat percentage was 33.1% for locomotive syndrome stage 1 in women. This finding may aid in designing exercise and nutritional interventions to prevent locomotive syndrome in older women.
我们旨在研究老年女性身体成分与运动机能综合征之间的关系，并得出身体成分的临界值以评估运动机能综合征的严重程度。本研究共纳入236名女性。采用多频生物电阻抗分析法测量体脂百分比和骨骼肌质量指数。使用起立试验、两步试验和一份自填式问卷来确定运动机能综合征的严重程度（0 - 3期）。受试者工作特征曲线分析表明，女性运动机能综合征1期的体脂百分比临界值为33.1%。这一发现可能有助于设计运动和营养干预措施，以预防老年女性的运动机能综合征。
