A dataset on skeletal muscle mass index, body composition and strength to determinate sarcopenia in bariatric patients

Bariatric surgery is the treatment for severe obesity, with proven efficacy in reducing weight. Weight loss associated with bariatric surgery is greatly associated with a significant reduction of skeletal muscle and bone mineral mass, which leads us to induce that after bariatric surgery, patients incur an increased risk of sarcopenia. Prophylactic programs that prevent sarcopenia in bariatric surgery patients seems to be one of the crucial points for the long-term surgical success of bariatric and metabolic surgery. This article presents a data set of skeletal muscle mass index, body composition and strength to determinate sarcopenia in bariatric patients. The data were collected in a Central Hospital and in the University. In total, is necessary to recruit 46 patient waiting for bariatric surgery, between 18 and 60 years, men, and woman, without contradiction for exercise. The patients are randomized in two groups, for exercise group and control group. The evaluation is made on five points of timeline, before the surgery, after the surgery, after de exercise program, six months, and twelve months after the exercise program.

减重代谢手术（Bariatric Surgery）是治疗重度肥胖的有效手段，其减重效果已得到临床证实。减重代谢手术后的体重下降往往伴随骨骼肌量与骨矿物质含量的显著降低，据此我们可推断，术后患者的肌少症（Sarcopenia）发病风险将显著升高。针对减重代谢手术患者的肌少症预防性干预方案，是保障减重代谢手术长期临床疗效的关键环节之一。本数据集收录了用于评估减重代谢手术患者肌少症的骨骼肌质量指数（Skeletal Muscle Mass Index）、身体成分及肌肉力量相关数据。本研究数据采集于某中心医院与某高校。本研究共计划招募46名等待接受减重代谢手术的患者，年龄介于18至60岁之间，涵盖男性与女性，且无运动禁忌证。所有受试者将被随机分为两组，分别为运动干预组与对照组。研究将在五个时间节点开展评估：手术前、手术后、运动干预结束时、运动干预结束后6个月，以及运动干预结束后12个月。
