Osteoporosis leads to a number of problems, such as falls and fractures. Therefore, it is very important to identify the problems and prevent these risks. With the aging of the world population, senile osteoporosis has gained importance. The aim of this study was to investigate sarcopenia risk, physical activity level, fall risk, kinesiophobia and quality of life in older people with and without osteoporosis. Demographic characteristics of individuals over 65 years of age with and without osteoporosis were noted. The Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE) questionnaire for the physical activity status of the participants, the Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale (TKS) for fear of movement, the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) for the postural control assessment, the Functional Reach Test (FRT) for the functional balance assessment, the Timed Up and Go Test (TUGT) for functional mobility assessment, the Strength, Assistance, Rise, Climb, Falls (SARC-F) questionnaire for sarcopenia risk, and the QUALEFFO-41 scale for quality of life assessment were used. A total of 71 participants were included in our study. While BBS and FRT results were significantly lower in the osteoporotic group (p=0.02, p=0.01, respectively), SARC-F scores were significantly higher than in the non-osteoporotic group (p=0.03). There was no significant difference in PASE, TKS, TUGT, and QUALLEFO-41 scores between the two groups (p>0.05). In the elderly population, the presence of osteoporosis was associated with the risk of balance impairment and sarcopenia but not with kinesiophobia.
