Violin plots illustrating the distribution of L3-SMI and hepatic equilibrium-phase spectral CT parameters between the progressive and stable groups. EP, Equilibrium phase; Z, Effective atomic number; K140, Slope of the spectral curve; IC, Iodine concentration; NIC: Normalized iodine concentration; ECVIC−liver, Extracellular liver volume; L3-SMI: Skeletal muscle index at L3; *, P<0.05; ***, P < 0.001
