RESUMO:

Introduction: Women tend to be more vulnerable than men to aging due to social, biological and hormonal factors, favoring the onset of sarcopenia (muscle mass reduction with advancing age and may be associated to impairment in function and strength). The International Working Group on Sarcopenia (IWGS), the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) and the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) are the main consensuses in studying sarcopenia around the world; which has developed different diagnostic criteria for the sarcopenia. Objective: To compare the diagnostic criteria of sarcopenia by different consensuses in women living in community. Materials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional analytical study composed of 472 women between 40 to 80 years old, divided into three groups (40 to 50 years, 51 to 60 and 61 to 80). Socio-demographic and socioeconomic data, regular physical exercise and anthropometric measurements were collected. Muscle mass, handgrip strength and walking speed were evaluated. Following the standardization established in the consensuses, cutoff values were generated for muscle mass, walking speed and handgrip strength, and from these cutoff values, prevalence of sarcopenia were found using the diagnostic criteria of the three protocols. Results: The cutoff values found for muscle mass, walking speed and handgrip strength were 5.92 kg/m², 0.78 m/s and 21.33 kgf, respectively. The lowest prevalence of sarcopenia in all three age groups was observed in the IWGS diagnostic criteria (group 1 - 3.00%, group 2 - 1.30%, group 3 - 15.70%). The highest prevalence of sarcopenia was equally observed in both the EWGSOP and AWGS consensuses (group 1 - 5.00%, group 2 - 6.00%, group 3 - 23.10%). Conclusion: In all three age groups, the prevalence of sarcopenia using the EWGSOP diagnostic criteria was exactly the same as for the AWGS, being much different and higher than the prevalence results using the IWGS diagnostic criteria.
