The sarcopenia diagnostic algorithm is used as a reference in the assessment of the presence of sarcopenic obesity. Demographic information of patients diagnosed with sarcopenic obesity is recorded. Then, the comorbidity levels of the patients were assessed with the 'Modified Charlson Comorbidity Index', sleep quality was assessed with 'Polysomnography' and 'Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index', and daytime sleepiness was assessed with the 'Epworth Sleepiness Scale'. The assessment of exercise capacity is performed with the 'Six Minute Walking Test' and the assessment of respiratory muscle strength is performed with the 'Electronic Intraoral Pressure Measurement Device'. Patients' physical activity levels are monitored with a pedometer. Quadriceps muscle strength is measured with Hand-held dynamometer. The presence of depression is assessed with the 'Beck Depression Inventory' and quality of life with the 'Nottingham Health Profile' and the 'Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire'.

The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is a self-report questionnaire that assesses sleep quality over a 1-month time interval. The measure consists of 19 individual items, creating 7 components that produce one global score, and takes 5-10 minutes to complete. Developed by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh, the PSQI is intended to be a standardized sleep questionnaire for clinicians and researchers to use with ease and is used for multiple populations. The questionnaire has been used in many settings, including research and clinical activities, and has been used in the diagnosis of sleep disorders.

The Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) is a general patient reported outcome measure which seeks to measure subjective health status. It is a questionnaire designed to measure a patient's view of their own health status, in a number of areas. The NHP consists of two parts. The first part focuses on health and comprises 38 items which deal with pain, energy, sleep, mobility, emotional reaction and social isolation. The second part focuses on life areas affected and consists of 7 items which deal with problems regarding occupation, housework, social life, family life, sexual function, hobbies and holidays. The second part of the NHP is optional and can be omitted without ruining the test results.

It is a test used to assess the physical, social and mental impact of excessive daytime sleepiness on activities of daily living. In the Turkish version of the FOSQ, the questions related to sexual activities were excluded and it consists of 26 questions. Each question is evaluated as no difficulty, mild, moderate, moderate, extreme and scored between 0-4 points. A low total score indicates functional insufficiency.

Epworth Sleepiness Scale was developed in 1991 by M.W. Developed by Johns. The scale developed to measure sleepiness qualitatively and quantitatively is practical and easy to evaluate and is widely used. Unlike similar scales, it is used to measure the general level of daytime sleepiness. A total score of 11 and above indicates excessive daytime sleepiness. Daytime sleepiness is assessed with this scale.

SARC-F is a 5-question questionnaire that asks about strength, assisted walking, getting up from a chair, climbing stairs and falls. Each question is calculated on a "0-2" point scale. A score of zero represents the best score, while a score of ten represents the worst score. Individuals scoring between "0-3" points are considered healthy, while individuals scoring 4 points and above are considered symptomatic. Scores of 4 and above are reported to predict sarcopenia and sarcopenia-related adverse outcomes.

Body mass index (BMI) is a value derived from the mass (weight) and height of a person. The BMI is defined as the body mass divided by the square of the body height, and is expressed in units of kg/m2, resulting from mass in kilograms and height in metres.

The body fat percentage of a patient is the total mass of fat divided by total body mass, multiplied by 100; body fat includes essential body fat and storage body fat. The body fat percentage of the patients will be evaluated by using the "Tanita BC-545N Body Analysis Scale" with the bioelectrical impedance analysis technique. And results are recorded in percent.

Body fluids, bodily fluids, or biofluids are liquids within the human body. The body fluid percentage of the patients will be evaluated by using the "Tanita BC-545N Body Analysis Scale" with the bioelectrical impedance analysis technique. And results are recorded in percent.

Muscle mass refers to the amount of soft muscle tissue in the body. The muscle mass of the patients will be evaluated by using the "Tanita BC-545N Body Analysis Scale" with the bioelectrical impedance analysis technique. And results are recorded in kg.

Fat-free mass, sometimes conflated with lean body mass, includes your body's water, organs, bone, and muscle content. In other words, it refers to all of your body components except fat. Fat-free mass is evaluated trough Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis.

Values changes in total skeletal muscle mass (in kilograms) using bioelectrical impedance analysis and formulas.

Values changes in total skeletal muscle mass index using bioelectrical impedance analysis and formulas.

With the help of a tape measure, neck circumference is measured in cm.

With the help of a tape measure, waist circumference is measured in cm.

With the help of a tape measure, abdomen circumference is measured in cm.

With the help of a tape measure, hip circumference is measured in cm.

With the help of a tape measure, waist and hip circumference is measured in cm. Depending on the circumference measurements, waist and hip circumference is calculated as waist to hip ratio.

The distance covered in meters in a straight corridor of 30 meters will be recorded as fast as possible but without running for 6 minutes. The distance that normal individuals should take in this period is 400-700 meters. In addition, oxygen saturation and heart rate, resting fatigue and dyspnea levels will be evaluated with pulse oximetry before and after testing. Modified Borg Dyspnea and Fatigue Scales will be used to determine resting dyspnea and fatigue levels.

SPPB scale will be used to measure physical function, which is a well-established tool for monitoring function in older people, which contains three kinds of assessments: stand for 10 seconds with feet in 3 different positions, 3-meter or 4-meter walking speed test, and time to rise from a chair for five times. The scores of SPPB range from 0 (worst performance) to 12 (best performance).

Measurement of respiratory muscle strength will be performed using an electronic mouth pressure measurement device, the "MicroRPM" brand (Micro Medical; UK), in accordance with American Thoracic Society (ATS) and European Respiratory Society (ERS) criteria.

A pedometer is a small portable device that measures and displays physical activity and counts steps. All patients included in the study use it for 1 week. Each patient will be given 1 pedometer and patients will be asked to record their 1-week data daily on the follow-up chart. It is planned to be used to monitor the daily physical activity level of the patients.

Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) Scale is a 21-item self-reported questionnaire which measures the existence and severity of symptoms of depression. Each of the 21 items on BDI-II tool represents a depressive symptom. The symptoms are each scored on a 4-point Likert scale of 0 to 3 (0=symptom is absent; 3=symptom is severe). Scores for each symptom are added up to obtain the total scores for all 21 items. Total score ranges from 0-63; of which 0-8 is considered no depression, 0-13 is minimal depression, 14-19 is mild depression, 20-28 is moderate depression and 29-63 is severe depression.
