Multivariable linear regression analysis examining the associations between MMSE scores and clinical factors, stratified by gender. Model 1 includes all participants; Model 2 includes males only; and Model 3 includes females only. Independent variables include age, muscle mass, phase angle (PhA), BMI, hemopexin, sarcopenia status, grip strength, and years of education
