Assessment of quality of life and its affecting factors in osteosarcopenic individuals in the Iranian older adult population: Bushehr Elderly Health (BEH) program.

Objectives: This cross-sectional study, conducted as part of the Bushehr Elderly Health program stage II in Bushehr, Iran, aimed to evaluate health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) in individuals aged ≥ 60 with osteosarcopenia, a condition characterized by the co-occurrence of osteopenia/osteoporosis and sarcopenia. Given the increasing elderly population worldwide, understanding the HR-QoL of this demographic is crucial, with osteosarcopenia being a significant factor.

Methods: The study enrolled 2369 participants aged ≥ 60 and collected demographic and anthropometric data.
