Eligibility Criteria
This is a historical cohort study of prospectively collected measurements of body composition performed by bioelectrical impedance analysis, between 1990 and 2011.
You may qualify if:
- All subjects ≥ 65 years included in previous studies on body composition by bioelectrical impedance analysis performed in the Nutrition Unit since 1990 until December 2011.
- All patients ≥ 65 years who had a measurement of body composition by bioelectrical impedance analysis performed in clinical routine by the Nutrition Unit and the dietitians of the University Hospital of Geneva since 1990 until December 2011, while hospitalized or not.
You may not qualify if:
- Subjects living in another country than Switzerland at time of body composition measurement
