Popis: Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the association between the questionnaires SARC-F and SARC-CalF with risk of mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). A cohort study, with patients on HD age ≥ 18 years, both sex, between June 2019 and April 2023. Body composition (anthropometry and bioelectrical impedance), muscle functional (handgrip strength and gait speed), screening of sarcopenia using the SARC-F and SARC-CalF, nutritional status and laboratory data were assessed. Follow-up for mortality up to 47 months. The sample consisted of 243 participants and the prevalence of risk of sarcopenia using SARC-F and SARC-CalF were 30% and 45%, respectively; 65 died for all reasons and three patients were censored due to transplantation. Multivariate analysis identified SARC-CalF as predictor of mortality in HD patients [hazard ratio 1.96; 95% CI (1.01–3.79); p = 0.04]. The survival analysis showed that there was a significant difference in the survival curves among the groups stratified by SARC-F and SARC-CalF for log-rank test. A higher specificity was found for SARC-CalF than SARC-F (80% vs. 77%) in receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Both questionnaires were associated with anthropometric, parameters of body composition, physical measurements, and SARC-CalF was predictor of risk for mortality in HD patients.
