Description |
As a biomarker for anemia and nutritional status, hemoglobin may play various roles in the development of sarcopenia |

Conclusion |
Hb levels were independently associated with sarcopenia and had stronger associations with muscle strength than muscle mass and in men than in women. further study is needed to clarify the causal relationship between anemia and sarcopenia, as well as the intervention effects on both anemia and sarcopenia. |
