Therefore, the aim of our study was to compare inspiratory muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness levels in sarcopenic, dynapenic, and older adults without sarcopenia or dynapenia.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods:<\/jats:title>\n The study included 75 community-dwelling older adults aged 65-85. Individuals were divided into 3 groups: dynapenic, sarcopenic, and control groups (older adults without sarcopenia or dynapenia), according to the ISarcoPRM diagnostic algorithm, which includes measuring anterior thigh thickness by ultrasonography. The S-index, flow, and volume parameters were measured using the Powerbreathe K5 system to assess inspiratory muscle strength in older adults. A 2-minute step test (2MST) was used to assess cardiorespiratory fitness.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n The sarcopenic group had lower values than the control in the S-index, flow, and volume parameters (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n < .05). In the 2MST, which evaluates cardiorespiratory fitness, all three groups were different from each other, and the sarcopenic group had the lowest scores (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n < .05). It was observed that anterior thigh muscle thickness had a low correlation with volume (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.347,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = .002). Anterior thigh muscle thickness had a moderate correlation with S-index (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.405,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n < .001), flow (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.421,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n < .001), and 2MST (\n r<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.454,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n < .001).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n It is thought that loss of respiratory muscle strength in older adults is seen in individuals with loss of muscle mass (sarcopenic).<\/jats:p>\n
