| Popis: | Summary Objective To evaluate the scientific evidences on the prevalence, diagnostic criteria, and factors related to sarcopenic obesity (SO) in Brazilian older adults. Methods this systematic review was based on searches of the databases PubMed, Science Direct, Excerpta Medica Database (Embase), Web of Science, Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), and Scopus. The systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). The inclusion criteria were: original articles of observational design that evaluated the presence of sarcopenic obesity in Brazilian older adults (≥60 years). Therefore, studies that investigated only obesity or sarcopenia, animal studies, review studies, congress publications, theses, dissertations, book chapters, editorials, letters to the editor, and newspaper articles were not included. Results The initial screening identified 549 records. After removing the duplicates, assessing the titles and abstracts, and the complete analysis of the papers, 12 studies were included in the review. The sample size of the studies ranged from 56 to 1373 subjects, most of them selected by convenience sampling (n = 11) and exclusively with women (n = 9). The prevalence of SO varied from 4.4% to 48.4%. No consensus was found on the diagnostic criteria for SO. The main associations identified were between SO and decrease in muscle strength, aerobic fitness, gait speed, and increase in frequency of frailty and cardiometabolic and inflammatory alterations. Conclusions Epidemiological studies conducted so far in Brazil are heterogeneous, which limits the possibility of comparison between prevalence and distribution of sarcopenic obesity among older adults. Further studies with representative samples of the population are required to understand the magnitude of SO in this group. |
