Patients with poor glycemic control (fasting blood glucose > 10.0 mmol / l) or acceptable blood sugar control (blood glucose: 7.2 - 10.0 mmol / l) were associated with increased risk of sarcopenia than patients having good glycemic control (OR = 5.78, 95% CI= 2.26 - 14.77 and OR = 2.55, 95% CI = 1.15 - 5.61, respectively).
