Effect of resistance training on quality of life in older people with sarcopenic obesity living in long-term care institutions: A quasi-experimental study.

Abstract：

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:To measure the effect of chair resistance training (RT) on the quality of life (QoL) of older long-term care residents with sarcopenic obesity (SO). BACKGROUND:Sarcopenia combined with obesity, commonly called SO, is considered to be related to health-related QoL. Despite concerns regarding SO-related long-term healthcare issues, intervention studies on SO residents in nursing homes are scant in Taiwan. DESIGN:This research was a quasi-experiment conducted according to the TREND Checklist. A total of 123 older persons were enrolled from six nursing facilities. The RT was implemented between October 2015-March 2016. METHOD:The intervention group received progressive RT with sandbags/dumbbells twice a week for 3 months, whereas the comparison group received the usual care. QoL was the major outcome variable. Data were analysed using chi-square test, Student's t test and generalised estimating equation (GEE). RESULTS:The various definition criteria for SO can influence the results of QoL in the older persons. From the body composition perspective, in the GEE analysis, the SO cut-off points for neither skeletal muscle mass percentage (SMMp) nor appendicular skeletal muscle mass index demonstrated significant between-group differences in the QoL variable after the 3-month RT intervention. Between-group analysis revealed a significant effect of time on anxiety/depression [Exp(B): 0.41, 95% confidence interval: 0.18-0.93, p-value < .05] in participants who met all three criteria of the definition of SO (low SMMp, low handgrip strength, and obesity). RT was one of the protective factors. CONCLUSION:In the SO group, the effect of muscle strength on QoL is greater than the effect of changes in body composition after RT. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE:This study analysed the influence of RT on QoL in subjects with different categories of SO. RT is one of the ways to promote QoL among the SO population.
