“…When calculating the cut-off points for the total SMM, the values of 7.88 kg/m 2 and 5.49 kg/m 2 were established for men and women, respectively, with the values for the male sex being higher than the points proposed in the EWGSOP2 and IWGS. However, our results differ from that found by Viana et al (2018) who evaluated elderly residents in Minas Gerais and obtained reference values for the SMM of <6.47 kg/m 2 for women and <8.76 kg/m 2 for men.…”

“…The cut-off points for handgrip strength, gait speed and SMM have been widely used to diagnose sarcopenia in populations residing in developed countries, where they were originally defined, so using such values in other populations can lead to inaccurate prevalence rates ( Moreira, Perez & Lourenço, 2019 ). A systematic review carried out in Brazil showed that the prevalence of sarcopenia can vary from 1–29% in the community-dwelling older people ( Diz et al, 2017 ; Viana et al, 2018 ) and most of the studies found use the cut-off points proposed by the EWGSOP ( Diz et al, 2017 ), which can induce a high prevalence rate of sarcopenia in community-dwelling older Brazilian.…”

“…In this perspective, the heterogeneity in the classification and the different reference values has a critical impact on the epidemiology of sarcopenia, since neither the procedures, the components and the cut-off points are consistent ( Viana et al, 2018 ). The cut-off points adopted by the consensus depend on the measurement techniques and availability of studies and populations ( Cruz-Jentoft et al, 2010 ), recommending the use of normative data instead of predictive reference populations ( Bahat et al, 2016 ), thus evidencing the need to obtain cut-off points for populations worldwide ( Cruz-Jentoft et al, 2010 ).…”

“…Except for Viana et al (2018) and Sampaio et al (2017) , who developed cut-off points for the screening of sarcopenia in elderly community members in southeastern Brazil, the number of studies that present the same proposal is still scarce in the country, especially for those elderly who live in the Brazilian northeast. Therefore, elderly people living in this region are diagnosed through the cut-off points of international consensus that do not consider the different ethnic characteristics of Brazil, which may lead to an overestimation of the prevalence of sarcopenia in this population ( Sampaio et al, 2017 ).…”

Background At a time when the world’s population is aging, one of the most important challenges for the healthcare field is to control the decline of the musculoskeletal system. This decline consists of a reduction in muscle mass and function, which is called sarcopenia and is associated with adverse health outcomes. Although there has been an increase in the number of publications on sarcopenia and its consequences, the reported prevalence varies widely, since these depend on the characteristics of the population studied, the definitions found in the literature and the cut-off points adopted. In this perspective, the heterogeneity in the classification and the different reference values has a critical impact on the epidemiology of sarcopenia, since neither the procedures, the components and the cut-off points are consistent. Objectives To develop cut-off points for the screening of sarcopenia in community-dwelling older people residents in the northeast of Brazil and compare the prevalences between the values defined by the consensus and the values of the population studied. Methods Community-dwelling older men and women living in three cities in the countryside of Rio Grande do Norte were evaluated. Cutoff points were defined for the variables used to screen for sarcopenia (handgrip strength, SMI, gait speed and SPPB) using the 20th percentile of their population distributions. Results The sample was composed of 1,290 older people (62.5% female and 37.5% male), with an average of 69.5 (± 6.05) years of age. Regarding the cutoff points, the handgrip values were defined as 25.3 kg and 16 kg for men and women, respectively. Considering the SMM adjusted according to their height, the values of 7.88 kg/m2 were adopted for men and 5.52 kg/m2 for women. When adjusting by BMI we obtained 0.73 kg/BMI for men and 0.41 kg/BMI for women. For gait speed it was defined 0.71 m/s for men and 0.63 m/s for women. In the case of SPPB, the result was the same for both genders (≤8). When applying the values found in the studied population, a variation in prevalence was observed for both men and women, depending on the cut-off points and consensus used. Conclusion The cutoff values found in our population were lower than those adopted by international consensus (EWGSOP2, IWGS and FNIH), except for HGS in woman and SMI/m2 for men. Therefore, using specific cutoff points for different populations can provide an accurate assessment of the presence of sarcopenia and better target health prevention strategies for the older people living in the community.

“…Visto que os idosos podem apresentar sarcopenia, uma condição relacionada com o avançar da idade, a qual acarreta na diminuição da capacidade funcional, quedas, fraturas, declínio do sistema imunológico e hospitalização 28 , utilizou-se o método de avaliação Jassen et al 20 , por meio do Kg/m² de massa muscular, que auxilia no diagnóstico da sarcopenia por meio dos dados da BIA, e verificou-se que todos os indivíduos do GATV não possuem risco de desenvolver sarcopenia. Em contrapartida, uma parcela do GINST (6,60%), foi classificado com sarcopenia grau II, de acordo com esse método.…”

The aim of this study was to compare the nutritional assessment using bioimpedancein active and institutionalized elderly over 60 years. We evaluated individuals from a long-term institution and physically active individuals from a city in the interior of São Paulo. Descriptive and statistical analysis were performed. Unpaired Student's t-test was applied considering 5% significance using GraphPad Prism software. The active group had a higher prevalence of women (73.40%), high calf circumference levels (37.21±3.16cm) and fat percentage (37.47±4.91%). Most elderly in both groups (53.30%) were classified as normal weight by the Body Mass Index. The active group was not at risk of developing sarcopenia, so the practice of regular exercise generates numerous benefits for the senile population, such as improved quality of life, health promotion and assistance in preventing pathologies.
