Objective
To determine whether a relationship exists between sarcopenia, including its individual components (muscle mass, muscle strength and gait speed), and mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Chinese older adults.
Methods
This cross-sectional study comprised participants aged ≥60 years from Tianjin and Shanghai, China, who joined a national free physical examination program between 2014 and 2019, and consented to study inclusion. Sarcopenia was defined according to the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (2019 version). Mild-to-moderate CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) between 45 ml/min/1.73 m2 and 60 ml/min/1.73 m2.
Results
A total of 1627 participants were included (mean age, 69.32 ± 6.17 years; 43.8% male). Sarcopenia was significantly associated with mild-to-moderate CKD in men but not women. Among three physical performance components, slow gait speed (odds ratio 1.89, 95% confidence interval 1.38, 2.58) was associated with mild-to-moderate CKD in both men and women after adjusting for all other variables.
Conclusions
Sarcopenia was closely associated with mild-to-moderate CKD in older men, and slow gait speed was related to mild-to-moderate CKD in men and women. These findings may help guide better diagnosis and management of CKD in the context of slow gait speed, and facilitate earlier CKD detection and appropriate intervention in older adults.
