Table 4 Cox-proportional hazards model for all causes of mortality according to the SARC-CalF. HR, hazard ratio; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; DM, diabetes mellitus; 7p-SGA, 7-Point Subjective Global Assessment; PhA, phase angle; HGS, handgrip strength; GS, gait speed. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
