Obesity: BMI z > 2 SD for age and sex. Sarcopenia: Total Lean Mass (TLM) ≤ 66.1% in males and ≤ 56.3% in females.

a

Model 1 adjusted for sex (female=1).

b

Model 2 adjusted for sex, early onset obesity (≤5y), and short maternal breast feeding (≤3 mo).

§

Non-obese non-sarcopenic participants are the reference group. Coefficients are the mean difference between a given category and the reference group.
