Impact of simple equation for estimating appendicular skeletal muscle mass in patients with stable coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
Background: Sarcopenia, which is evaluated based on appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and bioelectrical impedance analysis, is a prognostic predictor for adverse outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, a simple equation for estim...
