结局指标
主要结局
calf circumference
时间窗: three months
Calf circumference is an anthropometric measurement that indicates fat free muscle mass and has been considered by the World Health Organization (WHO) the most sensitive index for evaluating the decrease in muscle mass. Calf circumference will be measured with an elastic band over the subject's right leg, both sitting and standing. The measurement will be repeated 3 months after the first measurement
handgrip strength
时间窗: three months
Handgrip strength will be measured using a hand grip dynamometer. Measurements will be taken 3 times in a sitting position with the elbow flexed to 90° and the wrist in neutral position. The measured maximal grip strength will be recorded as hand grip strength. The measurement will be repeated 3 months after the first measurement
Body Mass Index (BMI)
时间窗: three months
BMI will be calculated as weight (kg) divided by height2 (m2). The measurement will be repeated 3 months after the first measurement
Skeletal muscle mass
时间窗: three months
Skeletal muscle mass will be evaluated using a multi-frequency body composition analysis device. The measurement will be repeated 3 months after the first measurement
