Association of muscle mass measured by D3-Creatine (D3Cr), sarcopenic obesity, and insulin-glucose homeostasis in postmenopausal women
The D3-Creatine (D3Cr) dilution method is a direct and accurate measure of skeletal muscle mass. In this study, we examined the association of D3Cr muscle mass with measures of insulin-glucose homeostasis in community dwelling postmenopausal women. Additionally, we examined association of sarcopenic obesity, defined as low D3Cr muscle mass and high percent body fat, with fasting plasma glucose, insulin, hemoglobin A1c and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance was measured by the homeostatic mea...
