Age-related functional decline emphasizes the need to investigate how tissue composition impacts mobility and independence in older adults. One of the most critical functions associated with mobility disability among older adults is leg muscle strength. The current study investigated the significance of lower leg tissue composition asymmetry on leg muscle strength changes over 5 years among older adults.

Abstract
Age-related functional decline emphasizes the need to investigate how tissue composition impacts mobility and independence in older adults. One of the most critical functions associated with mobility disability among older adults is leg muscle strength. The current study investigated the significance of lower leg tissue composition asymmetry on leg muscle strength changes over 5 years among older adults.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
