In general, the categories with sarcopenia status (SPPB score ≤ 8 or SARC-F score ≥ 4) were associated with higher levels of P3NP, CAF22, osteonectin, FABP3 and MIF and lower levels of irisin in the individual cohorts of healthy controls, COPD and CHF patients. This evidence concerns the gene FABP3 and sarcopenia.
