=0.164). Conclusions NHHR is inversely associated with sarcopenia risk among older Chinese men,while this association is substantially attenuated after adjustment for BMI,suggesting it may be largely confounded by body size or obesity-related factors.These findings should be interpreted with caution,and future longitudinal studies incorporating direct muscle mass measurements,such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and bioelectrical impedance analysis,are warranted to clarify the independent role of NHHR in sarcopenia.
