GHMA had moderately significant positive correlations with body mass index (CC = 0.507, p < 0.01), handgrip strength (CC = 0.530, p < 0.01), and SMI (CC = 0.541, p < 0.01), and weak positive correlations with AC (CC = 0.487, p < 0.01), CaC (CC = 0.439, p < 0.01), and quadriceps strength (CC = 0.417, p < 0.01).
