Brief Summary: The primary objectives of the present study are to estimate the sarcopenic proportion in a cohort of obese older subjects who have been hospitalized The secondary objective is to individuate several clinical variables that differ between the sarcopenic obese patient and the not sarcopenic obese patient
Detailed Description: 80 obese patients of both genders BMI 35 with an age 60 years hospitalized at the Hospital San Giuseppe Istituto Auxologico Italiano IRCCS Piancavallo VB are selected For each patient the following information are collected at the time of admission

anthropometric parameters height weight BMI waist and hip circumference
body composition free fat mass fat mass measured with impedance BIA and DEXA
hand strength measured with the hand grip test
explosive strength of lower limbs measured with the stair climbing test
Senior Fitness Test SFT a battery of tests useful to estimate the fitness level in the elderly SFT is a test that leads to measuring different physical parameters typical of daily activities strength of upper and lower limbs aerobic resistance flexibility of lower and upper limbs agility and dynamic equilibrium The measurements obtained make it possible to classify the skills as high function or low function
Physical performance test PPT which evaluates 7 physical capabilities areas of the subject to perform actions during daily life The cut-off to determine the motor limitation condition is a score of 20 out of 28 points
Questionnaire SF-12 Short Form Health Survey which leads to a multi-dimensional measuring of the life quality related to health It is composed of 12 questions from which can be obtained two synthetic indices one related to physical health and one related to mental health
Oswestry Disability Index questionnaire elaborated to have information on how back problems or leg problems can influence physical abilities related to daily life

The presence of sarcopenia is identified based on the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People EWGSOP2 Cruz-Jentoft AJ et al 2019 definition The physical performance parameters is evaluated according to the age sex obesity grade and presence of sarcopenic obesity
