Özet

Objective: Sarcopenia is an involuntary loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength and/or function. The identification of sarcopenia in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) may have prognostic and therapeutic effects. In our study, we aimed to evaluate sarcopenia in patients with PD by using bioimpedance analysis (BIA).
