Anthropometric parameters‐derived estimation of muscle mass predicts all‐cause mortality in heart failure patients
Abstract Aims Reduction in appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) assessed by dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DEXA) has been shown to be independently associated with a higher mortality rate in patients with heart failure (HF). However, DEXA is not suitable for measurement of muscle mass i...
