LTI loss and FTI gain, particularly their combination, are important predictors of survival in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Our results emphasize that longitudinal changes in LTI and FTI are more strongly associated with all-cause mortality than single-point values. Therefore, it is important to dynamically assess the muscle and fat tissues and develop potential targeted treatment strategies for this population.
