介绍：几项研究试图确定老年综合征肌肉减少症的诊断标准。土耳其的肌肉减少症患病率的研究是有限的，其中一个原因是缺乏标准的诊断参考值。本研究的目的是调查当地老年护理院居民肌肉减少症的患病率及其影响因素，按照EWGSOP共识report.Materials和方法：本研究共包括211个护理院居民。人体测量，肌肉质量，肌肉力量和身体性能进行了检查。将疗养院居民的肌肉质量与18-45岁的健康对照组进行比较。数值变量的描述值，平均值，标准差;分类变量显示为频率和percentage.Results：共211养老院居民被列入研究。平均年龄为77.30 +/- 7.20;参与者中58.8%为女性，37.4%为老年人。土耳其疗养院居民的肌肉减少症的患病率为33.6%。在肌肉减少症的参与者中，32.4%是女性，67.6%是男性。在我们的研究中，肌肉减少症在男性、老年人、帕金森病或慢性阻塞性肺病患者中更为普遍，而肌肉减少症在肥胖患者中较少见。Barthel指数与肌肉减少症之间无相关性。结论：当使用EWGSOP描述的诊断标准时，肌肉减少症的患病率为33.6%。男性和年轻老年人的肌肉减少症患病率较高。肌肉减少症在营养不良或有营养不良风险的疗养院居民中更常见。(C)2015年Elsevier Masson SAS和欧盟老年医学会。All rights reserved.
Introduction: Several studies have attempted to define the diagnostic criteria of the geriatric syndrome sarcopenia. Studies of sarcopenia prevalence in Turkey are limited; one reason for this is the absence of standard diagnostic reference values. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of sarcopenia and its influencing factors in the local elderly nursing home residents in accordance with the EWGSOP consensus report.Materials and methods: The study included a total of 211 nursing home residents. Anthropometric measurements, muscle mass, muscle strength and physical performance were examined. Muscle mass of the nursing home residents was compared to an 18-45-year-old healthy control group. Descriptive values for numerical variables are given as mean, standard deviation; categorical variables are shown as frequency and percentage.Results: A total of 211 nursing home residents were included in the study. The average age was 77.30 +/- 7.20; the participants were 58.8% women and 37.4% young-old. The prevalence of sarcopenia in Turkish nursing home residents was found to be 33.6%. Among sarcopenic participants, 32.4% were women and 67.6% were men. In our study, sarcopenia was more prevalent in men, the young-old, and patients with Parkinson's or chronic obstructive lung disease, while sarcopenia was seen less in obese patients. No relationship was found between the Barthel index and sarcopenia.Conclusions: Sarcopenia prevalence was 33.6% when the diagnostic criteria described by the EWGSOP were used. Sarcopenia prevalence was higher in men and the young-old age groups. Sarcopenia was more frequent in nursing home residents with malnutrition or risk of malnutrition.
