The Association Between Low Muscle Mass and the Risk of Depressive Symptoms: A Cross‐Sectional Study Based on the Chinese Longitudinal Health Longevity Survey (CLHLS)
Our study suggests LMM is a risk factor for depressive symptoms in the elderly Chinese population, and within a certain range, the risk of depressive symptoms increases as the LMM score decreases. Physical exercise may be an effective strategy to maintain optimal muscle mass and help the mental health of the elderly.
