Demographic characteristics, anthropometric and biochemical parameters of the participants were collected and analyzed. Variables associated with ASM were screened via univariate analysis, and core predictors were identified using a Random Forest model. Subsequently, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression was applied to optimize the model. Finally, Stepwise Multiple Linear Regression was utilized to develop the ASM prediction equation. Bland\u2013Altman (B\u2010A) plots and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used to assess the predictive validity and reliability of the model.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Height, weight, gender, waist\u2010to\u2010hip ratio, hemoglobin concentration, left calf circumference, and left hand grip strength were ultimately selected for model development.
