Prevalence of confirmed sarcopenia (%) and agreement between diagnostic instruments. * Statistically significant difference in the prevalence of confirmed sarcopenia in older women between the diagnostic instruments. Note: HGS: Handgrip Strength; ASM: Appendicular Skeletal Muscle Mass; 5XSST: 5-times sit-to-stand test. Agreement analysis: K = 0–0.20: no agreement; K = 0.21–0.39: minimal agreement; K = 0.40–0.59: weak agreement; K = 0.60–0.79: moderate agreement; K = 0.80–0.90: strong agreement; K > 0.90: almost perfect agreement
