Background The impact of body composition (BC) abnormalities on COVID-19 outcomes
remains to be determined. Objectives We summarized the evidence on BC abnormalities …

Introduction Body composition (BC) assessment can supply accurate information for in-
hospital nutritional evaluation. The aim of this study was to explore in the literature how the …

Background Post-extubation and neurologic complications in COVID-19 patients have been
shown to cause oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD). We performed the first meta-analysis to …

Objective To investigate the incidence rate of postextubation dysphagia (PED) in patients
with COVID‐19, as well as relative factors potentially influencing the clinical course of …

Phase angle, obtained by bioelectrical impedance, is an indicator of cellular integrity and
has been proposed as a prognostic parameter in patients who are critically ill. This …

Skeletal muscle mass forms the largest portion of lean mass in the body. It serves as the
body's structural support and facilitates movement. Furthermore, and importantly, skeletal …

Abstract Background Phase angle (PhA) obtained by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)
works as a predictor of clinical outcomes. Specific cutoff values for longitudinal changes and …

Phase angle (PhA) and muscle strength are predictors of clinical outcomes in critically ill
patients. Malnutrition may affect body composition measurements. The aim of this …

Body composition and phase angle (PhA) have been used to predict mortality in multiple
diseases. However, little has been studied regarding segmental measurements, which could …

Objectives: the aim of the study was to evaluate the nutritional support provided by enteral
nutrition (EN) in patients with COVID-19 infection, identify if the recommendations from …
