Sex-specific prognostic utility of the sarcopenia index in all-cause mortality risk for patients with heart failure

Sex-specific prognostic utility of the sarcopenia index in all-cause mortality risk for patients with heart failure

BackgroundThe sarcopenia index (SI), derived from serum creatinine and cystatin C levels, has emerged as a novel and accessible biomarker for predicting clinical outcomes. However, its sex-specific prognostic utility in heart failure (HF) remains poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate th...
