Association between lipid accumulation products and relative handgrip strength: a large population-based study.

ABSTRACT: Given the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases in the aging population, it is of great importance to gain an understanding of how changes in body composition affect health outcomes. Handgrip strength (HGS) serves as a valuable proxy for overall muscle strength, while relative HGS (RHGS) adjusts for body size, providing a more accurate assessment of the relationship between muscle strength and metabolic disease. Lipid accumulation products (LAP) are an indicator that can reflect visceral lipid accumulation. Based on previous studies, the relationship between LAP and RHGS has not been explored. This study aims to address this gap in the literature and provide insights for public health recommendations. Data was collected and extracted from the 2011-2014 National Health and Nutrition Exa
