IL6 and sarcopenia: After adjusting for age, sex, body mass index (BMI) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), increased concentrations of homocysteine [odds ratio (OR): 2.829; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.064–7.525] and high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) (OR: 1.021; 95% CI, 1.001–1.042) were independent predictors of sarcopenia; but not interleukin-6.
