Abstract

The association of low muscle strength with cardio-metabolic risks remains controversial. The present study included 742 men aged 70 ± 9 years and 937 women aged 70 ± 8 years from a rural village. We examined the cross-sectional relationship between relative muscle strength defined by handgrip strength (HGS)/body weight (BW) ratio, and metabolic syndrome (MetS) based on the modified criteria of the National Cholesterol Education Program's Adult Treatment Panel (NCEP-ATP) III report and its components. Of these, 203 men (27.4%) and 448 women (47.8%) had MetS. In men, increasing quartile of HGS/BW ratio was significantly and independently associated with high waist circumference {odds ratio, 0.31; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.24-0.41} and elevated triglyceridemia (0.71, 0.59-0.86). In women, it was also significantly and independently associated with high waist circumference (0.41; 0.36-0.48), high blood pressure (0.78; 0.66-0.92), Low HDL-cholesterolemia (0.84; 0.73-0.98) and elevated triglyceridemia (0.65; 0.53-0.79). In both genders, the prevalence of MetS significantly decreased in relation to increasing HGS/BW ratio. After adjustment for age, smoking status, drinking status, LDL-C, estimated glomerular filtration ratio (e...Continue Reading
