    Sarcopenia is identified as a significant risk factor for ventricular remodeling after CABG in elderly patients with coronary heart disease.

  • 2

    The study found a 23.70% incidence of ventricular remodeling post-CABG among the 135 elderly patients evaluated.

  • 3

    Multivariable logistic regression revealed that sarcopenia has an odds ratio of 2.230 for predicting ventricular remodeling after CABG.

  • 4

    Sarcopenia demonstrated a sensitivity of 90.0% and specificity of 47.0% for predicting ventricular remodeling in this population.

  • 5

    The research emphasizes the importance of early identification and management of sarcopenia to improve outcomes after CABG in elderly patients.
