This article aimed to develop and validate an anthropometric equation based on the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, a machine learning approach, to predict appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) in 60-70-year-old women.
Sarcopenia is defined as a combination of low skeletal muscle mass index (SMI), weak muscle strength, and reduced physical function. Recently, many studies have reported that the creatinine/cystatin C ratio (Cr/CysC) is useful for evaluating muscle mass. We designed a cross-sectional study with separate mo...
