Methods: The sample included 116 subjects aged 80 years and older. The body composition was measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and mobility was assessed by motor tests. The \u03c72 test was used to analyze the proportion of older people with sarcopenia, obesity and sarcopenic obesity based on sex as well as to indicate an association between obesity, sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity and mobility. Binary logistic regression, adjusted for the variables (sex and osteoarticular diseases), was used to express the magnitude of these associations. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the mobility of four groups (Normal, Obesity, Sarcopenia and Sarcopenic Obesity).  Results: The Sarcopenia Group had lower performance in the lower limbs strength test and in sum of two tests compared with Obesity and Normal Groups. Older people with sarcopenia had higher chance of reduced mobility (OR: 3.44; 95%CI: 1.12-10.52).  Conclusion: Older people aged 80 years and older with sarcopenia have more chance for reduction in mobility.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s1679-45082017ao4058","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,16]],"date-time":"2017-12-16T17:57:15Z","timestamp":1513447035000},"page":"435-440","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["Obesity, sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity and reduced mobility in Brazilian older people aged 80 years and over"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Vanessa Ribeiro dos","family":"Santos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Igor Conterato","family":"Gomes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculdade Maur\u00edcio de Nassau,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Denise Rodrigues","family":"Bueno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Tecnol\u00f3gica Federal do Paran\u00e1,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Diego Giulliano Destro","family":"Christofaro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ismael Forte","family":"Freitas Jr.","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luis Alberto","family":"Gobbo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estadual Paulista,  Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"530","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,18]]},"reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"540","DOI":"10.1007\/s12603-014-0464-x","article-title":"Influence of age and gender on fat mass, fat-free mass and skeletal muscle mass among Australian adults: the Australian diabetes, obesity and lifestyle study (AusDiab)","volume":"18","author":"Strugnell C","year":"2014","journal-title":"J Nutr Health Aging"},{"issue":"8","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"568","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1467-789X.2009.00703.x","article-title":"Obesity and mobility disability in the older adult","volume":"11","author":"Vincent HK","year":"2010","journal-title":"Obes Rev"},{"issue":"4","key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"412","DOI":"10.1093\/ageing\/afq034","article-title":"European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People.
