Development and Validation of PRE-SARC (PREdiction of SARCopenia Risk in Community Older Adults) Sarcopenia Prediction Model

Reliable identification of high-risk older adults who are likely to develop sarcopenia is essential to implement targeted preventive measures and follow-up. However, no sarcopenia prediction model is currently available for community use. Our objective was to develop and validate a risk prediction model for calculating the 1-year absolute risk of developing sarcopenia in an aging population.
