Multivariate associations between changes in BMI-adjusted grip strength (FNIH criteria) and characteristics that relate to the pathophysiology of sarcopenia (n = 121; OPLS CV-ANOVA P < 0.001). (a) OPLS cross-validated scores (tcv [1]) that describes participant variability and (b) multivariate associations in the characteristic profile at the variable level. The asterisk (*) represent variables that are significantly (P < 0.05) associated grip strength. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals. All data in the OPLS models are reported as loading weight (w [1]), which describes the contribution of each listed variable (X variable) to the latent variable that is produced by the model. Variables with large weights (w [1]) (positive or negative) are highly correlated with grip strength
