Brief summary
Previous studies have provided a preliminary understanding of the likelihood of sarcopenia and the prevalence of sarcopenia in the elderly in the community. due to the interaction between physiological and social factors, this study aims to conduct a correlation study on muscle mass, oral function and social frailty in the elderly living in the community. This study，the Makizako social frailty screening index questionnaire and the Tilburg Frailty Indicator will be used to assess the social frailty status of the study participants. Correlation analysis with sarcopenia and oral dysfunction was also conducted to better understand the interaction between nutrition, physiology, and social connection in the elderly, which will be helpful for formulating relevant policies and promoting healthy aging in the future in extremely elderly countries.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Based on the results of empirical research on sarcopenia in Asian countries, a diagnostic consensus was established. | Baseline | * The cut-off point for abnormal grip strength is less than 28 kg for men and less than 18 kg for women * 6-meter walking speed less than 1.0 second/meter * 5-time chair stand test greater than or equal to 12 seconds * Short physical performance battery, SPPB greater than or equal to 9 points The above will be combined to determine whether sarcopenia is possible. |
