Body Composition Risk Assessment of All‐Cause Mortality in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease Completing Cardiac Rehabilitation
In women with CAD, moderate LBM was associated with lower mortality when compared with low LBM, whereas body fat percentage and body mass index were not associated with mortality or major adverse cardiovascular events in either sex. Future research studying the implications of changes in body composition on outcomes in men and women with CAD is warranted.
