Evaluated using the Mann–Whitney test and chi-square test. Parameter values are shown as means (standard deviations) or numbers. Bold values indicate significant difference. PBF, aSMI, and NC by BIA were measured using InBody 770 BIA unit. BMI: body mass index; PBF: percent body fat; aSMI: appendicular skeletal muscle index; NC: neck circumference; BIA: bioelectrical impedance analysis; TUG: timed up-and-go; CRP: C-reactive protein. |
