Resumo: Sarcopenia affects performance in simple activities of daily life, directly impacting the quality of life of the elderly. The objective of the present study was to analyse the correlation between age, sarcopenia index and functional capacity in community-dwelling elderly. The sample comprised 40 community-dwelling elderly, 12 men (69.16± 8.13 years) and 28 women (67.96± 6.23 years). All participants underwent the Electrical Bioimpedance (BIA), Handgrip Strength test (HS), and Timed-Up-and-Go test (TUG). A strong correlation was found between age x TUG in men (r= 0.733; p= 0.021), between age x fat mass in women (r= 0.775; p= 0.032), between HS and TUG in men (r= − 0.713; p= 0.0003), and a weak correlation between HS and Free Fat Mass in women (r= 0.394; p= 0.043). Weak negative correlations were found regarding age in both men and women. In functional performance, concerning test time and age, strong correlations were found for men and weak correlations for women.

O objetivo do presente estudo foi analisar a correlação entre idade, índice de sarcopenia e capacidade funcional em idosos residentes na comunidade. A amostra consistiu de 40 idosos residentes na comunidade, 12 homens (69.16 ± 8.13 anos) e 28 mulheres (67.96 ± 6.23 anos). Todos os participantes foram submetidos ao teste de Bioimpedância Elétrica (BIA), Teste de Força de Preensão Manual (HS) e o Teste Timed-Up-and-Go (TUG). Foi encontrada forte correlação entre idade x TUG em homens (r = 0.733; p = 0.021), forte correlação entre idade x massa gorda em mulheres (r = 0.775; p = 0.032), correlação forte e inversa entre HS e TUG em homens (r = − 0.713; p = 0.0003), correlação fraca entre HS e massa gorda livre em mulheres (r = 0.394; p = 0.043). Correlações fracas foram encontradas inversamente proporcionais à idade, tanto em homens quanto em mulheres. No desempenho funcional, foram encontradas correlações entre o tempo de teste e a idade, sendo fortes nos homens e fracas nas mulheres.Edições Sílabas Didáticas2022-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.6063/motricidade.23834eng2182-29721646-107XLetieri, Rubens ViníciusAraújo, Paulo Henrique TorresSilva, Karla Mayane daAntunez, Bruno FernandesFarias, Mayrhon José AbrantesBarros, Paulo Marcelo NogueiraReis, Luciana Maria dosFurtado, Guilherme Eustáquioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-04-27T13:45:12Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/23834Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:29:25.474411Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
