Abstract:
Objective To investigate the occurrence status quo and influencing factors of low muscle mass(LMM)among young and middle-aged health examination population.Methods The young and middle-aged people undergoing the body composition analysis in this hospital from January to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects.The general data,body composition indices and biochemical indicators were col-lected.The body composition analysis was performed by the bioelectrical impedance analysis(BIA).LMM was diagnosed based on the skeletal muscle index.The univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of LMN occurrence in the young and middle-aged health examination population.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and the area under the curve(AUC)were em-ployed to evaluate the predictive value of each indicator.Results A total of 2 351 people undergoing the phys-ical examination were included,aged 18-49 years old,366(15.57%)cases of LMM were detected out.The skeletal muscle index,sex,age,age group distribution,body mass index(BMI),body fat percentage(BFP),body fat percentage grade,visceral fat area(VFA),AST/ALT,Hb,serum creatinine,blood uric acid,HbA1c,fasting blood glucose,TC,LDL-C,HDL-C,TG and triglyceride-glucose index(TyG)had statistical differences between the LMM group and normal group(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression revealed that the sex(OR=2.606,95%CI:1.755-3.870),BMI(OR=0.579,95%CI:0.538-0.623),BFP(OR=5.885,95%CI:4.176-8.292)and VFA(OR=0.955,95%CI:0.944-0.967)were the influencing factors for the LMM oc-currence in the young and middle-aged people undergoing the physical examination(P<0.001).The ROC a-nalysis showed the AUC values of the sex,BMI,BFP and VFA for predicting LMM were 0.580,0.821,0.636 and 0.715 respectively,in which the predictive value of BMI was highest.Conclusion The population of fe-male,low BMI,high BFP and low VFA maybe the high-risk groups for LMM.The health management for the above-mentioned groups needs to be strengthened.
