Background/Aim: The bioimpedance analysis (BIA) can provide anthropometric data on patients. The aim of the study is to evaluate the clinical relevance of these automatically obtained values. Patients and Methods: We studied the arm circumference (AC) and arm muscle circumference (AMC) of 197 histologically proven cirrhotic patients. The BIA-based anthropometric data were compared to the manually measured data. In addition, we evaluated whether or not the BIA-based anthropometric data were associated with the …
