Distribution of anthropometric indicators according to age group.
| Mean ± SD | 20–35 Years | 36–59 Years | ≥60 Years | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WHtR | 0.56 ± 0.81 | 0.52 ± 0.07 a | 0.57 ± 0.07 b | 0.61 ± 0.07 c |
| TSF | 23.7 ± 10.1 | 23.9 ± 10.6 ab | 25.1 ± 10.4 a | 21.1 ± 8.7 b |
| AC | 31.4 ± 4.6 | 31.2 ± 4.8 a | 32.2 ± 4.7 b | 30.3 ± 4.6 a |
| AMC | 23.9 ± 3.6 | 23.7 ± 3.9 a | 24.3 ± 3.7 a | 23.7 ± 3.0 a |
| CAMA | 39.1 ± 13.7 | 38.3 ± 14.6 a | 40.6 ± 14.5 a | 37.8 ± 10.8 a |
| SSF | 22.7 ± 9.3 | 21.4 ± 9.0 a | 23. 7 ± 9.5 b | - |
| CC | 34.1 ± 3.6 | - | - | - |
SD: standard deviation; WHtR: waist-to-height ratio; TSF: triceps skinfold; AC: arm circumference; AMC: arm muscle circumference. AMC: AC(cm) − (3.14 × TSF); CAMA: arm muscular area corrected; SSF: subscapular skinfold; CC: calf circumference. Equal letters do not differ statistically. Different letters indicate a significant difference between means.
