The purpose of this study was to determine whether hand-grip strength (HGS) can be a significant discrimination factor of mobility limitation (ML) among older adults. Cross-sectional analysis was conducted on data from 939 community-dwelling older adults, aged 65-96 years (74.4 ± 6.4 yr, 266 men, 673 women). ML was defined as self-reported difficulty in walking 400 m, climbing 10 steps, and rising from a chair. Trained testers assessed standardized measurements of HGS and lower extremity performance score (LEPS) calculated by four tests (i.e., tandem stance, 5-chair sit-to-stand, alternate step, and timed up & go). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was conducted to identify discrimination power of HGS and LEPS for ML. The areas under the ROC curves (AUCs) of HGS and LEPS for ML were 0.82 and 0.87 in men; 0.70 and 0.85 in women, respectively. No significant difference was detected between the AUCs of HGS and LEPS (P = 0.12) in men, whereas in women, the AUC was significantly lower in HGS than LEPS (P < 0.001). The optimal HGS cut-off values for ML were 31.0 kg (sensitivity 75%, specificity 81%) for men and 19.6 kg (sensitivity 73%, specificity 57%) for women. In men, the HGS test could be as useful as LEPS for identifying ML. In women, discrimination power for ML by HGS alone was considered acceptable; however, a combination of HGS and lower extremity performance tests could be more useful for monitoring the hierarchical levels of physical frailty.
