Sarcopenia is associated with an unfavorable outcome in patients with acute pancreatitis: A propensity score analysis
Sarcopenia identified via HUAC in early aP is associated with a worse clinical outcome. Pleural effusion or ascites and changes in blood coagulation independently predict ICU admission in sarcopenic aP patients. Early nutritional and physical therapy should be considered to prevent and treat sarcopenia in aP patients.
