In this study, we will measure the Skeletal Muscle Mass Index (SMI) in elderly patients with sensory impairments in hearing, balance, smell, or taste, which can be evaluated and treated in the field of otolaryngology. This research aims to clarify how SMI in elderly individuals with sensory impairments is associated with the duration of illness and the severity of the sensory impairments, and to examine whether the evaluation of sensory impairments can be effective as a screening tool for sarcopenia. Furthermore, by assessing SMI before and after the treatment of sensory impairments, this study aims to determine whether improving sensory impairments can be effective in preventing sarcopenia.
Efficacy
<Analysis 1> Comparison Between Severity of Sensory Impairments and SMI
We will evaluate hearing tests, vestibular function tests, olfactory tests, and gustatory tests in relation to SMI for each sensory impairment.
The correlation between test results for each sensory impairment and SMI will be analyzed using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient.
Patients with sensory impairments will be classified into the hearing impairment group, vestibular impairment group, olfactory impairment group, and gustatory impairment group. The SMI obtained in each group will be compared among the four groups using the Steel-Dwass test.
<Analysis 2> Comparison Between Disease Duration of Sensory Impairments and SMI
We will analyze the disease duration obtained through interviews for each sensory impairment in relation to SMI.
The correlation between disease duration and SMI will be analyzed using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient.
<Analysis 3> Comparison of SMI Before and After Treatment of Sensory Impairments
We will compare the SMI at the time of diagnosis of sensory impairments and at the time of improvement or recovery following treatment.
The SMI values before and after treatment will be compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.

Prevention
| Device,equipment |
Medical procedures exceeding standard care and those performed for research purposes (specifically: standing measurement using a multi-frequency body composition analyzer for approximately 40 seconds).
The diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of each sensory impairment can be conducted within standard otolaryngology practice. The only additional test performed in this study is the measurement of SMI using a multi-frequency body composition analyzer, which is non-invasive and involves minimal intervention.
