Association between serum neurofilament light chain levels and grip strength among US adults: a cross-sectional study using National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data from 2013 to 2014
Our study demonstrates a strong, negative and linear correlation between elevated serum NfL levels and grip strength. Notably, our findings indicate that individuals aged between 60 and 75 years, those with physical inactivity and those with CKD exhibit a more pronounced reduction in grip strength with increasing serum NfL levels.
