In 141 adults, MRI fat patterns predicted strength with a model-fit score of 0.64, versus 0.42 for muscle size alone.In 141 adults, MRI fat patterns predicted strength with a model-fit score of 0.64, versus 0.42 for muscle size alone.
People with intramuscular fat fractions above 10% showed significantly lower paraspinal muscle mass and strength than those with levels below 5%.People with intramuscular fat fractions above 10% showed significantly lower paraspinal muscle mass and strength than those with levels below 5%.
