ObjectivesTo determine the prevalence of sarcopenia in older men with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and to compare to a subset of the group to age, race, sex, and body mass index (BMI)-matched non-PAD control counterparts. We also sought to compare the functional status of those with PAD with and without sarcopenia.DesignCohort study.SettingA Veterans Affairs medical center.ParticipantsSedentary, community dwelling men age 50+ years with a confirmed diagnosis of PAD (N=108; 44% black; BMI 27.8 ± 0.4 kg/m2; ABI:0.62 ± 0.01; mean ±SEM).InterventionsNot applicable.Main OutcomesDual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scans were used to assess appendicular lean mass (ALM) and determine the prevalence of sarcopenia by ALM/height2 (ALM/ht2). Treadmill tests were used to determine claudication onset time (COT), peak walking time (PWT), and claudication recovery time (CRT). Six-minute walk distance (6MWD) was also measured.ResultsSarcopenia prevalence in our PAD cohort was 25%. The PAD subset (N=42) matched with control counterparts for race, sex, age, and BMI had higher prevalence rates compared with their non-PAD counter parts (23.8% vs 2.4%, P<0.05). Individuals with sarcopenia (N=28) had lower 6MWD (p<0.05; 326± 18.8 vs 380 ± 9.7 meters) and higher CRT (p<0.05; 592 ± 98 vs 395 ± 29 seconds) compared to individuals with PAD but without sarcopenia (N=80). There was no difference in COT or PWT between the PAD groups.ConclusionsMen with PAD demonstrate a high prevalence of sarcopenia. Those with sarcopenia and PAD demonstrate decreased mobility function.
