Posttransplant muscle mass measured by urinary creatinine excretion rate predicts long‐term outcomes after liver transplantation

Long‐term survival in orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) recipients remains impaired because of many contributing factors, including a low pretransplant muscle mass (or sarcopenia). However, influence of posttransplant muscle mass on survival is currently unknown. We hypothesized that posttransplant...
