摘要

Background

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a disease characterized by various metabolic disorders and increases the risk of cardiovascular events. Osteosarcopenia (OS) is the name given to conditions where osteopenia/osteoporosis (OP) and sarcopenia coexist. In this study, the relationship between MetS and bones assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and muscles assessed by muscle ultrasonography (USG) was investigated.

Methods

The study conducted among patients aged 65 and over who applied to the geriatric outpatient clinic between January 2022 and June 2022. This study was a cross-sectional study. There were 161 patients.

Results

In the study, 77 (73%) of the patients with MetS were female and the median age of the patients with MetS was 72(9) interquartile range (IQR) years. While OP was present in 18% of patients with MetS, this rate was 41% in those without MetS, and this difference was significant (p = 0.002). There was no difference in OS and sarcopenia rates between the two groups (respectively; p = 0.14, p = 0.09). Gastrocnemius medialis (GM) and transversus abdominis (TA) muscles were significantly thicker in patients with MetS (respectively; p = 0.002, p = 0.003).
