Association of Muscle Radiodensity and Muscle Mass With Thoracic Aortic Calcification Progression in Dialysis Patients

Association of Muscle Radiodensity and Muscle Mass With Thoracic Aortic Calcification Progression in Dialysis Patients

ABSTRACT Background Recent findings have spotlighted sarcopenia as a critical factor exacerbating cardiovascular risk in dialysis patients. However, no studies have investigated the relationship of muscle characteristics with thoracic aortic calcification (TAC). We explored whether skeletal muscle r...
