Usefulness of computed tomography-measured psoas muscle thickness per height for predicting mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis
Abstract Computed tomography (CT)-measured psoas muscle thickness standardized for height (PMTH) has emerged as a promising predictor of mortality. The study aimed to investigate whether PMTH could accurately predict mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis. We examined 207 patients (mean age:...
