Guerron; TAKAYAMA, Liliam; CAPARBO, Valeria F.; FIGUEIREDO, Camille P.; MACHADO, Luana G.; DOMICIANO, Diogo S.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.- Risk Factors for Low Muscle Mass in a Population-based Prospective Cohort of Brazilian Community-dwelling Older Women: The Sao Paulo Ageing & Health (SPAH) Study(2020) MACHADO, Ketty L. L. L.; DOMICIANO, Diogo S.; MACHADO, Luana G.; LOPES, Jaqueline B.; FIGUEIREDO, Camille P.; CAPARBO, Valeria F.; TAKAYAMA, Liliam; MENEZES, Paulo R.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.Introduction: Sarcopenia is characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, which results in decreased muscle strength, functional impairment, and increased risk of death. Few studies have performed a concomitant evaluation of clinical, laboratory, and body composition variables to accurately determine the contribution of each parameter to low muscle mass (LMM) in older subjects. This study aimed to identify risk factors (clinical, laboratory parameters, BMD, and body composition by DXA including visceral fat) for LMM in a prospective cohort of older Brazilian women. Methods: A total of 408 women aged >= 65 yr from the Sao Paulo Ageing & Health study were evaluated with clinical data, laboratory bone tests, BMD, and body composition by DXA using Hologic QDR 4500A equipment. Risk factors were measured at baseline (2005-2007). After a follow-up of 4.3 +/- 0.8 yr, subjects were classified according to the LMM definition of the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health criteria. LMM was defined when appendicular lean mass divided by body mass index was less than 0.512. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to identify independent risk factors for LMM. Results: At the end of follow-up, 116 women (28.4%) had LMM. Age averages were 73.3 +/- 4.9 yr in the LMM group and 72.5 +/- 4.5 yr in the normal group (p = 0.11). Mean BMI was 30.6 +/- 5.2 kg/m(2) in the LMM group and 28.1 +/- 4.7 kg/m(2) in the normal group (p < 0.001). In multivariate analyses, predictors of LMM were: falls (OR = 1.14, p = 0.016), TSH levels (OR = 1.08, p = 0.018, per 1 mu UI/L-increase), serum creatinine levels (OR =11.11, p < 0.001, per 1 mg/dL-decrease), and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) mass (OR = 1.17, p < 0.001, per 100 g increase). Conclusions: Falls, high TSH, low creatinine, and high VAT were risk factors for LMM in older women. More attention should be paid to these factors, since they are potentially reversible with adequate intervention.
conferenceObject Effect of Sarcopenia, Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue and Abdominal Visceral Fat on Mortality Risk of Community-Dwelling Older Adults: A Population-Based Prospective Cohort Study(2016) SANTANA, Felipe M.; GONCALVES, Michel A.; DOMICIANO, Diogo S.; MACHADO, Luana G.; LOPES, Jaqueline B.; FIGUEIREDO, Camille P.; CAPARBO, Valeria; TAKAYAMA, Liliam; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.- KLOTHO polymorphisms and age-related outcomes in community-dwelling older subjects: The SAo Paulo Ageing & Health (SPAH) Study(2020) PEREIRA, Rosa Maria R.; FREITAS, Thiago Quadrante; FRANCO, Andre Silva; TAKAYAMA, Liliam; CAPARBO, Valeria F.; DOMICIANO, Diogo S.; MACHADO, Luana G.; FIGUEIREDO, Camille P.; MENEZES, Paulo R.; ONUCHIC, Luiz Fernando; CASTRO, Isac deDefective KLOTHO gene expression in mice led to a syndrome resembling human ageing. This study evaluated three KLOTHO polymorphisms, namely G395A, C1818T, and C370S, in an elderly population (mean age of 73 years) and their associations with ageing-related outcomes (cardiovascular events, kidney function, osteoporosis, sarcopenia) and mortality. Estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR) was lower in subjects with 1818TT (P=0.047) and 370SS (P=0.046) genotypes. The 1818TT genotype (P=0.006) and 1818T allele were associated with higher frequency of myocardial infarction (MI) (CC:1.7% vs. CT+TT:7.0%; P=0.002). The 370SS genotype was associated with lower stroke frequency (P=0.001). MI (OR 3.35 [95% CI: 1.29-8.74]) and stroke (OR 3.64 [95% CI: 1.48-8.97]) were associated with mortality. Regarding MI, logistic regression showed 1818T allele was a risk factor for death-related MI (OR 4.29 [95% CI: 1.60-11.52]; P=0.003), while 370C was protective (OR 0.03 [95% CI: 0.01-0.08]; P<0.001). Regarding stroke, the 395A and 370C alleles were protective factors (respectively: OR 0.28 [95% CI: 0.20-0.80]; P=0.018; OR 0.10 [95% CI: 0.05-0.18]; P<0.001). This is the first study to determine potential associations between common ageing-related outcomes/mortality and KLOTHO polymorphisms. The 1818T allele was a risk factor for MI-related death. The 395A and 370C alleles were protective factors for stroke-related death in elderly from community.
- Bone Mineral Density and Parathyroid Hormone as Independent Risk Factors for Mortality in Community-Dwelling Older Adults: A Population-Based Prospective Cohort Study in Brazil. The SAo Paulo Ageing & Health (SPAH) Study(2016) DOMICIANO, Diogo S.; MACHADO, Luana G.; LOPES, Jaqueline B.; FIGUEIREDO, Camille P.; CAPARBO, Valeria F.; OLIVEIRA, Ricardo M.; SCAZUFCA, Marcia; MCCLUNG, Michael R.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.Previous studies have shown a relationship between osteoporosis and increased mortality risk. However, none of these studies performed a concomitant evaluation of the parathyroid hormone (PTH)-calcium-vitamin D axis and bone mass to accurately determine the contribution of each of these parameters to survival in older subjects. Thus, we sought to investigate the association between bone parameters and mortality in a longitudinal, prospective, population-based cohort of 839 elderly subjects. Clinical data (including history of fractures and cardiovascular events) were assessed using a specific questionnaire. Laboratory exams, including serum 25OHD and PTH, were also performed. Bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine and hip were evaluated using DXA. All analyses were performed at baseline (2005 to 2007). Mortality was recorded during follow-up. Multivariate Cox proportional regression was used to compute hazard ratios for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Over a mean 4.06 +/- 1.07 years, there were 132 (15.7%) deaths. These individuals were compared to 707 subjects who were alive at the end of the coverage period for mortality data collection. In a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model, age (HR 1.32; 95% CI, 1.13 to 1.55; p=0.001, for each 5-year increase), male gender (HR 1.90; 95% CI, 1.30 to 2.79; p=0.001), recurrent falls (more than two in the previous year; HR 1.65; 95% CI, 1.06 to 2.56; p=0.026), diabetes mellitus (HR 2.17; 95% CI, 1.46 to 3.21; p<0.001), low physical activity score (HR 1.78; 95% CI, 1.14 to 2.79; p=0.011), prior cardiovascular event (HR 1.76; 95% CI, 1.18 to 2.63; p=0.006), total hip BMD (HR 1.41; 95% CI, 1.15 to 1.72; p=0.001, per each 1 SD decrease), and intact PTH (iPTH) (HR 1.06; 95% CI, 1.04 to 1.08; p<0.001, per each 10pg/mL increase) were independently associated with all-cause mortality. The subjects in the highest quartile of PTH (>49pg/mL) were at a higher risk of cardiovascular death (HR 3.09; 95% CI, 1.36 to 6.99; p=0.007) compared with the subjects in the lowest quartile (<26pg/mL). Low BMD and higher PTH were significantly associated with mortality in community-dwelling older adults. These findings support the notion that careful screening of these bone parameters might lead to better management of older patients and improve outcomes in this population.

- Association of Appendicular Lean Mass, and Subcutaneous and Visceral Adipose Tissue With Mortality in Older Brazilians: The Sao Paulo Ageing & Health Study(2019) SANTANA, Felipe M. de; DOMICIANO, Diogo S.; GONCALVES, Michel A.; MACHADO, Luana G.; FIGUEIREDO, Camille P.; LOPES, Jaqueline B.; CAPARBO, Valeria F.; TAKAYAMA, Lilliam; MENEZES, Paulo R.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.Body composition changes as a result of ageing may impact the survival of older adults. However, its influence on mortality risk is uncertain. Currently, the best method for body composition analysis in clinical practice is DXA. Nonetheless, the few studies on body composition by DXA and mortality risk in the elderly have some limitations. We investigated the association between body composition by DXA and mortality in a cohort of elderly subjects. Eight hundred thirty-nine community-dwelling subjects (516 women, 323 men) >= 65 years of age were assessed by a questionnaire, clinical data, laboratory exams, and body composition by DXA at baseline. Total fat and its components (eg, visceral adipose tissue [VAT]) were estimated. Appendicular lean mass (ALM) adjusted for fat and ALM divided by height(2) was used to ascertain the presence of low muscle mass (LMM). Mortality was recorded during follow-up. Multivariate logistic regression was used to compute ORs for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Over a mean follow-up of 4.06 +/- 1.07 years, there were 132 (15.7%) deaths. In men, after adjustment for relevant variables, the presence of LMM (OR, 11.36, 95% CI, 2.21 to 58.37, P = 0.004) and VAT (OR, 1.99, 95% CI, 1.38 to 2.87, P < 0.001, for each 100-g increase) significantly increased all-cause mortality risk, whereas total fat, measured by the fat mass index, was associated with decreased mortality risk (OR, 0.48, 95% CI, 0.33 to 0.71, P < 0.001). Similar results were observed for cardiovascular mortality. In women, only LMM was a predictor of all-cause (OR, 62.88, 95% CI, 22.59 to 175.0, P < 0.001) and cardiovascular death (OR, 74.54, 95% CI, 9.72 to 571.46, P < 0.001). LMM ascertained by ALM adjusted for fat and fat mass by itself are associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality risk in the elderly. Visceral and subcutaneous fat have opposite roles on mortality risk in elderly men. Thus, DXA is a promising tool to estimate risk of mortality in the elderly.
