Reduced upper limb lean mass on dual energy X-ray absorptiometry predicts adverse outcomes in male liver transplant recipients

BACKGROUND: Pre-transplant muscle wasting measured by computed tomography has been associated with adverse clinical outcomes after liver transplantation including increased rates of sepsis and hospitalisation days. Upper limb lean mass (LM) measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) was rec...
