Popis: Abstract Background Muscle and bone are physiologically interconnected, but joint changes of muscle and bone with aging, and whether the muscle‐bone changes are different by sex and by country has been little studied. We examined longitudinal associations of bone mineral density (BMD) and muscle mass or muscle strength in community‐dwelling 65 years or older in the United States and Japan. Methods The present analytic sample included 1129 women and men from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (BLSA) (mean age, 74.5 ± 7.5 years; women, 49.8%) and 1998 women and men from the National Institute for Longevity Sciences‐Longitudinal Study of Aging (NILS‐LSA) (mean age, 70.0 ± 4.5 years; women, 51.4%). Median follow‐up was 4.6 (min‐max, 0–15.4) years in the BLSA and 4.0 (min‐max, 0–13.4) years in the NILS‐LSA. We selected visits at which participants had BMD (whole body, pelvic, femoral neck, trochanter, and Ward's triangle BMDs) and muscle mass [appendicular lean mass, (ALM)] measured by DXA scan. In each bone site, we ran cohort‐specific bivariate linear mixed‐effects models adjusted for baseline age, sex, body height, body weight, fat mass, education year, and smoking status. Race was an additional adjustment in the BLSA. Additionally, we performed sex‐specific analyses. Results In the BLSA, the rate of change in ALM positively correlated with the rate of change in the whole body (rho = 0.30, P 0.05). In the NILS‐LSA, ALM positively correlated with the rate of change in all bone sites (rho ranged from 0.20 to 0.71, P
