Muscle cross sectional area - CSA |
Muscle CSA is measured with Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, it is an expensive measurement. The CSA of three major muscle such as; half way at arm - biceps, thigh - quadriceps and calf muscles were measured and included for analysis. |

Adiponectin |
Fasting (less than 12 hrs) venous blood samples were collected from all the participants and centrifugation of the specimen was done. Serum and plasma were separated and stored immediately at -800C. Biochemical marker Adiponectin levels were measured with ELISA kit |
