Agreement between upper and lower limb measures to identify older adults with low skeletal muscle strength, muscle mass and muscle quality

<h4>Background</h4> Identifying low skeletal muscle strength (SMS), skeletal muscle mass (SMM) and skeletal muscle quality (SMQ) is pivotal for diagnosing sarcopenia cases. Age-related declines in SMS, SMM, and SMQ are dissimilar between the upper (UL) and lower limbs (LL). Despite this,...
