Associations between housing quality and sarcopenia among older adults: evidence from China and India
Objectives
Housing is an important social determinant of health. However, limited studies have focused on the relationship between housing quality and sarcopenia, especially in low- and middle-income countries. This study aims to examine the association between housing quality and sarcopenia in older adults in China and India.
Methods
The study was based on the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study and Longitudinal Aging Study in India. Housing quality was evaluated by five indicators, including housing materials, water sources, sanitation facilities, main fuel for cooking, and availability of electricity. Housing quality is divided into three types: good (0–1 poor housing indicators), medium (2–3 poor housing indicators), and poor (4–5 poor housing indicators). Sarcopenia was evaluated according to the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) 2019 Consensus. The logistic regression model was performed to examine the association between housing quality and sarcopenia.
Results
The medium (OR = 1.69, 95%CI = 1.49−1.90) and poor housing quality (OR = 2.19, 95%CI = 1.89−2.54) were associated with sarcopenia in CHARLS. Similar results were also observed in the LASI with significantly higher prevalence of sarcopenia in medium (OR = 1.22, 95%CI = 1.11–1.33), and poor housing quality (OR = 1.60, 95%CI = 1.43−1.79). Moreover, we observed a linear relationship between housing quality and the prevalence of sarcopenia both in CHARLS and LASI (all P for trend <0.001).
Conclusions
Poorer housing quality was associated with a higher prevalence of sarcopenia in older adults in China and India. Housing quality improvement plans such as access to tap water, promotion of clean energy may have a positive effect on reducing the prevalence of sarcopenia.
期刊介绍:
There is increasing scientific and clinical interest in the interactions of nutrition and health as part of the aging process. This interest is due to the important role that nutrition plays throughout the life span. This role affects the growth and development of the body during childhood, affects the risk of acute and chronic diseases, the maintenance of physiological processes and the biological process of aging. A major aim of "The Journal of Nutrition, Health & Aging" is to contribute to the improvement of knowledge regarding the relationships between nutrition and the aging process from birth to old age.
