The relationship between stroke-related sarcopenia and 3-month neurological outcome in stroke patients: a prospective cohort study
Stroke-related sarcopenia is closely related to worse neurological function at the convalescence stage. Higher ASM/Ht<sup>2</sup> and grip strength at baseline were independent protective factors for neurological outcomes. ASM/Ht<sup>2</sup> and grip strength could be of superior predictive value for neurological outcomes, with different weights and gender differences in their predictive efficacy.
