Waist‐to‐height ratio and renal dysfunction as independent correlates of low handgrip strength in patients with type 2 diabetes

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
In 1,468 patients with type 2 diabetes, central obesity (WHtR >0.5) neutralizes the protective effects of higher BMI on muscle strength. Concurrently, visceral adiposity and CKD impose an additive threat, maximizing low handgrip strength risk (aOR = 1.74). Combining WHtR and renal tracking optimizes clinical sarcopenia screening.
