Multivariate logistic regression for the associated risk factors for sarcopenia.

Variables	Sarcopenia Defined by EWGSOP2
Variables	Multivariate Model OR (95% CI)	p Value
Diabetes	3.66 (1.06–12.61)	0.040
Takes >4 prescription drugs/day	2.66 (1.05–6.77)	0.040
BMI	0.75 (0.62–0.90)	0.003
TBW	0.84 (0.73–0.96)	0.013

Age, nutritional state, smoking, consuming alcohol, and obesity were adjusted for. OR: odds ratio; BMI: body mass index; TBW: total body water. Goodness-of-fit: H-L Chi² (8) = 6.423, p = 0.600.
