| description | Sarcopenia is an age-related disease characterized by the loss of muscle mass and strength.
This study aimed to determine the association between dietary fiber intake and blood glucose and
lipid profiles among older adults with possible sarcopenia and sarcopenia in Kelantan. This crosssectional
study involved 92 older adults aged 60 and above, residing independently in the
community. Participants were recruited through convenience sampling. Dietary fiber intake was
assessed using the Diet History Questionnaire (DHQ), and blood samples were collected after an
overnight fast to analyze glucose levels and lipid profiles, including total cholesterol (TC), highdensity
lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides (TG). Sociodemographic
and medical history characteristics were also collected during interviews. Sarcopenia
was screened using cut-off points from the Asian Working Group of Sarcopenia (AWGS), and
skeletal muscle index (SMI) was determined using body impedance analysis (BIA). Dominant
handgrip strength was measured with a Jamar dynamometer, and muscle performance was
assessed using the short physical performance battery (SPPB). The findings revealed notably low
dietary fiber intake, with median intakes of 3.54 grams for men and 3.29 grams for women. Median
fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels were 5.60 mmol/L for men and 5.30 mmol/L for women, both
within normal ranges. Both men and women demonstrated normal levels of triglycerides (TG) and
high-density lipoprotein (HDL), but elevated levels of total cholesterol (TC) and low-density
lipoprotein (LDL). Despite the low dietary fiber intake and notable blood glucose and lipid
profiles, no significant relationship was found between fiber intake and blood glucose or lipid
profiles in the studied population. Further research is needed to explore other factors that may
influence these health parameters in older adults with sarcopenia. |
