Muscle quality determined by computed tomography predicts short-term and long-term survival after liver transplantation
Abstract Sarcopenia, the loss of muscle mass and quality, contributes to worse clinical outcome in patients with end-stage liver disease, but its impact on short- and long-term survival remains insufficiently understood. The aim of this study was to evaluate the development of computed tomography (C...
