Visceral-to-peripheral adiposity ratio in proneness to sarcopenic obesity: association with low muscle strength, but not low muscle mass, in young women of South Asian descent

These results in young women suggest that an increase in the ratio of visceral-to-peripheral adiposity associated with low muscle strength (but not low muscle mass) may constitute early events in the complex interactions between adverse body fat distribution, cardiometabolic risks and proneness to sarcopenic obesity.
