Official title
Assessment of Body Composition and Physical Function in Older Adults With Obesity
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Sarcopenia, which is the loss of muscle mass and strength or physical function, naturally occurs in aging. In sarcopenic obesity, growth of muscle mass and increments in strength do not parallel weight gain, and places older adults at increased risk of falls, fractures, physical disability, frailty, and mortality from too low muscle strength relative to body size. The goal of the study is to assess body composition and physical function in older adults with obesity.
