ASCVD risk and sarcopenic status stratified by central obesity and FMI. Associations between ASCVD risk and sarcopenia were assessed according to sarcopenic status, stratified by central obesity (A) and FMI (B). The prevalence of high ASCVD risk was evaluated according to sarcopenic status, stratified by central obesity (C) and FMI (D). ASCVD risk and proportion of participants with high ASCVD risk were greater in sarcopenic participants than in non-sarcopenic participants, regardless of central obesity and FMI (all P < 0.001).
