Body composition analysis and handgrip strength as predictors of 12‐month mortality in hospitalized adults receiving parenteral nutrition: A descriptive cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Nutrition assessment in patients receiving parenteral nutrition often relies on classical parameters with limited prognostic value. Morphofunctional tools such as phase angle and handgrip strength measurement offer a more comprehensive evaluation of nutrition status and may better predict clinical outcomes. Objective To evaluate the
