Figure 3.
Comparisons of the daily step count, ESMCSA, and 6MWD between patients with and without sarcopenia. Comparisons of the daily step count, ESMCSA, and 6MWD between patients with sarcopenia and robust patients are shown. The daily step count, ESMCSA, and 6MWD were significantly lower in patients with sarcopenia than in robust patients. 6MWD: 6-minute walk distance, ESMCSA: the cross-sectional area of the erector spinae muscles at the level of the 12th thoracic vertebra
