Sarcopenia is relatively easy to diagnose by preoperative computed tomography imaging, and a relationship between this pathology and CLI has recently been established focusing on the notion that sarcopenia by altering key molecules such as adiponectin and carnitine exacerbates whole-body arteriosclerosis, henceforth contributing to the poor prognosis of CLI patients [12]. This evidence concerns the gene ADIPOQ and sarcopenia.
