Forest plots showing the results of the Cox-proportional hazards model for various diagnostic definitions of sarcopenia, their hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals. The boxes represent the hazards ratio and the error bars represent the 95% confidence intervals. (A) Univariate hazards for various diagnostic definitions of sarcopenia as a predictor of mortality. (B) Multivariate hazards, adjusted for ascites, for various diagnostic definitions of sarcopenia as a predictor of mortality. HGS, handgrip strength; WC, Western cut-off; AC, Asian cut-off.
