“…Abdominal fat and CI, despite not having cutoff points to identify individuals with greater propensity to CVD, are considered by several studies as factors directly related to cardiovascular risk, as they are indicative of central obesity (Costa, Soares, Lemos, Maranhao, & Azevedo, 2010;Kim et al, 2011;Pitanga & Lessa, 2005) and DXA can be an interesting method for estimating body fat, including visceral fat (Kaul et al, 2012;Toombs, Ducher, Shepherd, & De Souza, 2012). However, this study observed a trend of sarcopenia only as a risk factor for body fat.…”

“…More recent studies (Kim et al, 2011;Lim et al, 2010) consider sarcopenic obesity as the combination of factors adopted for predicting obesity and sarcopenia, with prevalence of 5.7% in women aged ≥ 65 years. The present study showed prevalence of 24.2% of women classified as obese-sarcopenic, with the same obesity and sarcopenia criteria shown in Table 5.…”

“…11 In addition, Bogaerts et al 41 showed improvements in muscle strength and oxygen consumption after WBV training that included static and dynamic exercises that were comparable to a fitness group that combined RET and aerobic training, suggesting that WBV training is an efficient alternative for overall training effects. Because young obese individuals may develop high SBP, metabolic syndrome and sarcopenic obesity, which are associated with increased baPWV, 9,42 WBV training may be a beneficial exercise modality for the prevention of these comorbidities through improvements in arterial function and muscle strength.…”

“…8 The baPWV has been inversely associated with muscle mass in adults with metabolic syndrome. 9 Moreover, muscle strength has been inversely associated with aortic PWV 10 and the prevalence of obesity. 11 This evidence suggests that improvement of muscle function can occur concurrently with improved endothelial function in obese women.…”

“…The prevalence of SO has increased in industrialized countries due to the high number of cases of obesity and sarcopenia in obese people, ranging from 4.4% to 42.9%, depending on the diagnostic methods and on the studied population (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21). There is not a consensus between the definition and classification of SO, and this gap contributes to the inconsistent findings in its association with clinical outcomes (22)(23)(24). Knowledge about the consequences of the SO to health were initially limited to functional outcomes.…”
