Skeletal muscle mass by bioelectrical impedance analysis and calf circumference for sarcopenia diagnosis

Skeletal muscle mass (SMM) plays an important role in health and physical performance. Its estimation is critical for the early detection of sarcopenia, a disease with high prevalence and high health costs. While multiple methods exist for estimating this body component, anthropometry and bioelectri...
