Estimated Cardiorespiratory Fitness Attenuates the Impacts of Sarcopenia and Obesity on Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver in Korean Adults.


ABSTRACT: This population-based, cross-sectional study examined the preventive role of non-exercise-based estimation of cardiorespiratory fitness (eCRF) against the impacts of sarcopenia and obesity on the non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) in Korean adults. Data were obtained from the 2008-2011 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys IV and V (n = 14,015 Koreans aged ? 18 years, 64% women). eCRF was calculated with the age- and sex-specific algorithms, and classified as lower (lowest 25%), middle (middle 50%) and upper (highest 25%). Individuals were classified as optimal (i.e., the absence of both sarcopenia and obesity), sarcopenia (i.e., the presence of sarcopenia), obesity (i.e., the presence of obesity) or sarcopenic obesity (i.e., the coexistence of sarcopenia and obesity). Limited to the sarcopenia phenotype, the adjusted odds ratio (OR) of NAFL was 2.2 (95% confidence interval, CI, 1.5-3.1) for the lower eCRF, 1.6 (95% CI, 1.3-2.1) for the middle eCRF and 2.1 (95% CI, 1.4-3.1) for the upper eCRF, compared to the optimal phenotype. Limited to the obesity phenotype, the adjusted OR of NAFL was 2.9 (95% CI, 2.0-4.2) for the lower eCRF, 3.5 (95% CI, 2.7-4.6) for the middle eCRF and 1.8 (95% CI, 1.2-2.8) for the upper eCRF, compared to the optimal phenotype. Limited to the sarcopenic obesity phenotype, the adjusted OR of NAFL was 5.9 (95% CI, 4.3-8.2) for the lower eCRF, 4.2 (95% CI, 3.2-5.5) for the middle eCRF and 2.5 (95% CI, 1.5-4.1) for the upper eCRF, compared to the optimal phenotype. The current findings suggest that high eCRF attenuates the individual and synergistic impacts of sarcopenia and obesity on NAFL in Korean adults.
