Malnutrition-sarcopenia syndrome predicts mortality in hospitalized older patients

Abstract A new term, malnutrition-sarcopenia syndrome (MSS), was recently coined to describe the clinical presentation of both malnutrition and sarcopenia. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between MSS and long-term mortality in older inpatients. We conducted a prospective stu...
