Effect of Combined Resisted Training and Protein-based Diet on Frailty in Sarcopenic Elderly Women

30 mei 2026 bijgewerkt door: shaimaaelsayed, Cairo University

Sixty obese elderly women will be recruited from Fawkia hospital outpatient clinic diagnosed by sarcopenia and randomly allocated into two groups for a 12-week intervention. Patients will be divided into 2 groups (A and B):

  • Group A (combined intervention group: n=30): will perform supervised resistance exercise training three times per week and follow a high-protein diet (1.3 g protein/kg/day)
  • Group B (control group: n=30): will receive a high-protein diet and general health advices and be asked to maintain their usual lifestyle. They will be offered the intervention post-study.

Studie Overzicht

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

Group A (combined intervention):

Resistance Exercise:

The exercise program involved resistance training 3 days a week for 1-h sessions. The training started with a 10-min warming up followed by two sets of 50 s of the following exercises: leg press, knee extensions, leg curls, chest press, seated row, plantar flexion, and sit-to-stand exercises. During the 12-week period the number of sets was gradually increased from 2 - 3 set for all exercises, the time to perform the exercises increased from 50 - 75 s, and resistance was increased by using dumbbells, elastic bands, medicine balls and a step bench. The training ended with 5-min cooling down. Attendance to the training sessions was recorded.

Dietary intervention:

  • Protein intake: 1.3 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day.
  • Distribution: protein intake will be evenly distributed across meals (≥ 30g per meal).
  • Monitoring: participants will keep 3-day dietary records every two weeks. Group B (control group): will receive high protein plan and a single session of general advices on the importance of physical activity based on national guidelines. They will be contacted every two weeks for general check-ins to maintain engagement but will not receive structured exercise or dietary planning.

Tijdsspanne
balance assessment
Tijdsspanne: 12 weeks
The Biodex Balance System SD features five test protocols and six training modes, allowing for both testing and training in either static or dynamic formats. It is intended to be a system that can provide accurate Fall Risk Screening and conditioning for older adults, can be used as a balance assessment tool for concussion management, and can serve as weight-bearing assessment and training for lower extremity injuries.

Tijdsspanne
Health-Related Quality of Life
Tijdsspanne: 12 weeks
The 36-Item Short Form Health Survey questionnaire (SF-36) is a very popular instrument for evaluating Health-Related Quality of Life. The SF-36 measures eight scales: physical functioning (PF), role physical (RP), bodily pain (BP), general health (GH), vitality (VT), social functioning (SF), role emotional (RE), and mental health (MH). Component analyses showed that there are two distinct concepts measured by the SF-36: a physical dimension, represented by the Physical Component Summary (PCS), and a mental dimension, represented by the Mental Component Summary (MCS). All raw responses must be converted to a scale of 0 to 100, where 100 represents the most favorable health state (absence of limitations) and 0 indicates the worst health state

hallmarks of sarcopenia
Tijdsspanne: 12 weeks
The SARC-F questionnaire contains five self-reported items evaluating the hallmarks of sarcopenia, that is, functional deficits and falls. Each item has a possible score of 0 to 2 points, with higher scores suggesting a higher risk of sarcopenia. A total score of >3 is regarded as a positive screening result. Higher SARC-F scores have been shown to correlate with a slower chair rise, lower gait speed, overall lower SPPB scores, as well as adverse outcomes related to sarcopenia The SARC-F has a low-to-moderate sensitivity but high specificity, thus providing a well-suited screening test to identify individuals who are not at high risk of sarcopenia-related negative outcomes.

Muscle quality index
Tijdsspanne: 12 weeks
The Muscle Quality Index (MQI) is a performance-based functional assessment involving ten repetitions of the sit-to-stand maneuver performed as rapidly as possible. The test requires the use of a scale to record body mass, a tape measure to obtain leg length, along with a stopwatch and chair and for the timed functional task. The MQI score is calculated using the formula provided by Takai et al: ((leg length × 0.4) × body mass × gravity × 10)/sit-to-stand time.
12 weeks
Handgrip strength assessment
Tijdsspanne: 12 weeks
Handgrip strength assessment will be assessed using a digital hand dynamometer. The participants held an ergonomic position to perform the test, sitting upright in a chair with a backrest but no armrests. The feet will be maintained on the floor with 90° knee flexion. The arm will be positioned with 90° elbow flexion and neutral forearm pronosupination. The subjects will receiveexplanation of the dynamometer. A single blinded instructor encouraged participants to produce their maximal HGS with their dominant hand. The best result of three attempts with a 1-min pause between will be documented in kilograms (kg).
12 weeks
Waist-to-hip ratio assessment
Tijdsspanne: 12 weeks
The waist circumference will be measured at the narrowest point between the ribs and hips. The individual will stand with feet together and exhale gently. The measuring tape will be comfortably snug but will not press into the skin. The hip circumference will be measured at the widest part of the buttocks. The measuring tape is positioned parallel to the ground and encircled the hip bones.
12 weeks
body mass index
Tijdsspanne: 12 weeks
Using body weight scale with height (m) scale to be able to calculate body mass index (kg) to all subject before starting the study BMI=(weight(kg))/(height2 (m2))
