Summary

This cross-sectional study aims to identify risk phenotypes for sarcopenia among young adults using Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) for whole-body composition analysis, along with anthropometric and musculoskeletal assessments. Sarcopenia, characterized by the loss of muscle mass and strength, is a growing concern, particularly among the aging population.
