Association between Neurologic Outcomes and Changes of Muscle Mass Measured by Brain Computed Tomography in Neurocritically Ill Patients

Association between Neurologic Outcomes and Changes of Muscle Mass Measured by Brain Computed Tomography in Neurocritically Ill Patients

This study aimed to investigate whether skeletal muscle mass estimated via brain computed tomography (CT) could predict neurological outcomes in neurocritically ill patients. This is a retrospective, single-center study. Adult patients admitted to the neurosurgical intensive care unit (ICU) from Jan...
