Low Bioelectrical Impedance Phase Angle Is a Significant Risk Factor for Frailty

Table 5

Summary of the multiple regression analysis for phase angle by sex.

	Male		Female
Independent variable	Standardized partial regression coefficient (β)		Standardized partial regression coefficient (β)
Age (years)	−0.432	< 0.001	−0.387	< 0.001
BMI (kg/m^2)	0.292	< 0.001	0.219	< 0.001
Frailty	−0.128	0.015	−0.177	0.001
LS	−0.189	< 0.001		0.52

< 0.05, < 0.01, and < 0.001.
The dependent variable was phase angle. The independent variables were age, BMI, LS, and frailty. Italic text indicates a significant difference.
BMI: body mass index; LS: locomotive syndrome.
