Summary

This study looked at 60 adults with cirrhosis to see if a simple frailty test (Liver Frailty Index) matches actual leg muscle strength. Researchers measured quadriceps strength and checked for malnutrition and frailty using several tools. The goal is to find better ways to spot physical weakness early in cirrhosis patients.
