The study aimed to evaluate the relationship between nutritional status (NS) and handgrip strength (HS) of elderly of the city of São Paulo, Brazil. This cross-sectional epidemiological study, population- and useholdbased, is part of a multi-center study (SABE Survey), which was coordinated by the Pan-American Health Organization. The SABE survey reached 2143 elderly (³ 60 yrs old), from both sexes, from january/2000 to march/2001, and for the present analysis a group of 1894 (88.4%) was selected by probabilistic sampling. NS was determined by Body Mass Index (BMI) and arm muscle area (AMA) as independent variables. HS (dependent variable) was measured by dynamometer. Linear regression analyses were used to correlate the NS and HS, for both...
