SUMMARY:

INTRODUCTION: The aging process promotes numerous anatomical and regulatory changes in the human body, in the musculoskeletal system, there is a decrease in muscle mass and the total amount of water. This condition may favor the emergence of geriatric syndromes, such as sarcopenia, leading to functional decline in the elderly. OBJECTIVE: To explore, cross-sectionally, the relationships between water, metabolism, skeletal muscle mass, calf circumference, walking speed, strength and physical performance in community-dwelling older people. METHODOLOGY: Methodological cross-sectional study, consisting of 709 older people aged ≥ 60 years, of both sexes and residents of the city of Parnamirim. Data were collected through a confident protocol containing some questions about sociodemographic variables and lifestyle habits (present in the elderly person's health booklet - CSPI). Total body water/basal metabolic rate (ACT/BMR) and the amount of intra/extracellular water (AIC/AEC) were measured using bioelectrical impedance (BIA). The physical performance measures were trained in the Short physical Performance battery (SPPB), the measurement of the calf domain (CP) took place in centimeters (cm) being performed by means of a tape measure and for the measurement of strength, it was using a Saehan hydraulic dynamometer. The relationship between the water variables (ACT, TMB, AIC and AEC) with CP and physical performance was evaluated using the Pearson trained test, considering p< 0.05 and a 95% confidence interval. RESULTS: The sample consisted of elderly people with a mean age of 70.06 (±7.06) years and mostly women (60.7%). In Spearman's dynamic analysis, it was proved that all water variables were significantly correlated with strength, with emphasis on the transmutation between grip strength and TMB (r = 0 .6 p = <0,01), ACT (r = 0.6 p = <0,01) and AIC (r = 0.7 p = <0,01), whose values demonstrated, respectively, a moderately and high strength of spontaneous. EXPECTED RESULTS: Based on the preliminary results, it can be observed that the relationship between the components of water with strength, walking speed, calf circumference and physical performance, can help in investigations into the screening of sarcopenia in community-dwelling elderly, helping to identify early and minimizing the aggravating factors to the health of this population.
