  1. Model 1: Adjusted for age, sex and energy intake. Model 2: Further adjusted for physical activity, smoking, alcohol consumption, medication use (statin, corticosteroid, estrogen, testosterone), and positive history of disease (asthma, arthritis, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, diabetes)
  2. a Muscle mass lower than 5.45 (kg/m2) for women and 7.26 (kg/m2) for men were considered low [24]
  3. b Abnormal muscle strength was defined according previous study [28]
  4. c Gait speeds lower than 0.8 m/s were considered abnormal [24]
