内容記述 |
In general, reduced fat-free mass (FFM) and increased percentage of body fat (%BF) are considered to be closely associated with physical frailty in the elderly. On the contrary, a reduction in body weight is a serious problem for elderly people in nursing homes because it is closely associated with frailty and mortality. However, there is little information on the body composition of institutionalized elderly, who are generally frail and require help in the activities of daily living (ADL). A cross-sectional survey was conducted to compare anthropometric characteristics of 24 women (84.8±4.8 [SD] years) who commute to a day care home and 26 free-living women (79.3±4.2 years) without any ADL disability. The %BF was measured with a dual energy X-ray absorptiometry scanner. Due to the higher age of the day care participants, covariance analyses were used to determine body mass index (BMI), %BF, and FFM adjusted for age. There were no significant differences in mean and/or median of any variables between groups even after adjusting for age. However, the variance in BMI and %BF of the day care group were greater than those of the control. This result may imply that the anthropometrics of women in day care homes are quite varied and that the replacement of muscle with fat alone does not fully explain ADL disabilities. |
