Popis: PURPOSE This study investigated the association between weight loss and handgrip strength (HGS) with cause-specific mortality in middle-aged and older adults. METHODS A total of 8,175 participants (54.1% women) aged ≥45 years, who participated in the Korean longitudinal study of aging (KLoSA) were included. Study participants were classified as stable weight and 5 kg or more weight loss group based on weight change and as high, middle, and low categories based on HGS distributions. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to calculate hazard ratio (HR) according to weight change status and HGS levels. RESULTS During 13.0±3.1 years of follow-up, there were 1,809 (22.1%) deaths. In all-cause mortality, middle HGS (stable weight; HR=1.289, p
