Sarcopenia and bone fracture are now recognized as important issues in elderly and/or long-term dialysis patients.

We investigated whether the modified creatinine index (MCI) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP), as an estimate of skeletal muscle mass and bone parameters, respectively, affect the risk of long-term bone fracture in maintenance hemodialysis patients.
