When we compared people with nonsarcopenic obesity vs. sarcopenic obesity, statistically significant differences were found in age (56 ± 13 vs. 64 ± 11, p = 0.02), sex (73% men vs. 18%, p= 0.02), hospital stay (33 ± 19 vs. 71 ± 51, p < 0.001), ICU stay (18 ± 16 vs. 47 ± 35, p < 0.001) and CRP (19 ± 29 vs. 59 ± 47, p = 0.04). Here, CRP is linked to obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency.
