Body composition in patients with obesity‐related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: A comparison study

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Appendicular lean mass index is a major determinant of cardiorespiratory fitness in patients with obesity‐related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Moreover, appendicular lean mass index can be used to diagnose sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity in this population.
