Association of Nutritional Status and Possible Sarcopenia Among Formerly Older Homeless Adults in Supportive Housing, Thailand
The findings underscore a high prevalence of possible sarcopenia among formerly homeless older adults in supportive housing in Thailand and highlight poor nutritional status, particularly low BMI and malnutrition, as a key contributing factor. These results emphasize the importance of early nutritional screening and interventions to prevent or delay sarcopenia in this vulnerable population.
