Sex-Specific Prognostic Patterns of Sarcopenia Components in Patients With Heart Failure

Although sex interactions were limited, population-derived muscle mass thresholds showed reduced prognostic performance in women, indicating that refining disease-specific or sex-adapted thresholds may enhance risk stratification in HF.
