Based on CT scans at the 12th thoracic spine level, assessing the impact of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue index on one-year postoperative mortality in elderly hip fracture patients: a propensity score-matched multicenter retrospective study by En-li Li, Jia-sen Hu, Zi-hao Chen, Run-xun Ma, Chen Jin, Yi-tian Bu, Si-xiang Feng, Cheng-bin Huang, Ya-ping Jin, Lei Yang

“…Methods A total of 334 participants from two institutions were enrolled in this study to obtain skeletal muscle index (SMI), subcutaneous fat index (SFI), visceral fat index (VFI), and the visceral-to-subcutaneous ratio of the fat area (VSR) at T12 levels and divide them into death and survival groups based on the results of follow-up after 1 year. Propensity score matching (PSM) was employed to evaluate one-year postoperative mortality. …”
