Who may be able to join
AI generated eligibility summary. Written by an AI model from the official source data and checked on a sample basis. It can contain mistakes, so confirm anything important against the original source. How we use AI
Who might be able to join this trial:
- You have had a CT scan (covering the chest, abdomen, pelvis, and spine) taken at the hospital's radiology department within one month before or after your inpatient stay — this applies to the sarcopenia (muscle loss) part of the study.
- You have had both a CT scan of the chest and abdomen AND a DEXA scan (a type of bone density scan) done at the same hospital, with both scans taken no more than 18 months apart — this applies to the osteoporosis (bone loss) part of the study.
- Your CT scan images are clear enough to be used for analysis.
Who may not be able to join:
- You have previously stated in writing that you do not want your data to be used in research.
- Your CT scan images are not clear enough to be useful for the study.
- You are missing results from certain physical tests, specifically: a hand grip strength test (measured on both hands), a timed-up-and-go test (measuring how quickly you can stand up and walk), and a walking speed test.
