Myosteatosis for Early Detection of Muscle Disorder in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis
Muscle disorders in cirrhosis are associated with poor outcome and need early identification. Anthropometric measures lack sensitivity, and CT-based L3-skeletal muscle Index (L3-SMI) may miss early sarcopenia. The study aimed to find if SM-RA can identify more patients with muscle disorder than L3-S...

Zusammenfassung: | Muscle disorders in cirrhosis are associated with poor outcome and need early identification. Anthropometric measures lack sensitivity, and CT-based L3-skeletal muscle Index (L3-SMI) may miss early sarcopenia. The study aimed to find if SM-RA can identify more patients with muscle disorder than L3-SMI and anthropometry.
388 patients with cirrhosis underwent nutritional assessment by anthropometry, short-physical-performance-battery (SPPB) |
