They analyzed men with and without HIV (age 50–69 years) from the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS) Bone Strength Substudy if evaluated for frailty (by Fried phenotype) and body composition [BMI, waia with frailty. Thereby suggesting the clinical utility of the assessment of these body composst circumference, abdominal visceral (VAT) and subcutaneous (SAT) adipose tissue, sarcopenia, and osteopenia/osteoporosis]. Men with and without HIV demonstrated the association of higher abdominal obesity and sarcopeniition parameters to detect frailty.
