Muscle characteristics were then classified as normal or low using already validated cut-off according to patients' age and body mass index (Westenberg et al. Sci Rep 2023). Patients' outcomes were then compared based on their muscle quality, albumin level at diagnosis and other clinical ...
The mean muscle mass index (SMI) was 6.11±0.53kg/min men and 4.00±0.63kg/min women, respectively. Low muscle mass was associated with a higher risk of death (hazard ratio [HR] 1.54; (95% confidence interval [CI]:1.10–2.16) in women; however, no significant association was found in...
Ageing involves significant changes in skeletal muscle mass and its functioning. This study aimed to identify the major nutrient patterns (NPs) present in a sample of adult Polish women and evaluate their associations with the skeletal muscle mass index (SMI). A cross-sectional study initially recr...
SMI is an established surrogate of sarcopenia for advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (aHNSCC) patients (pts). However, ideal cut-off values for prognostication and biochemical predictors of SMI are under reported for pts approaching a first-line chemotherapy. Methods SMI was calculated ...
Significant differences in the BMD, FMI, SMI, mineral content, body fat percentage and skeletal muscle mass were found among the RA patients in the different BMI groups (p < 0.05). In RA patients with BMI < 18.5 kg/m2, the prevalence of OP in the RA patients with sarcopenia ...

Skeletal muscle mass [skeletal muscle index (SMI)], skeletal muscle quality [muscle attenuation (MA)], and visceral adiposity [visceral to subcutaneous adipose tissue area ratio (VSR)] were measured on preoperative computed tomography images. The impacts of these parameters on outcomes after ICC ...
There were significant differences in sex, alcohol consumption, body weight, BMI, skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) [total skeletal muscle mass (kg)/height 2 (m2)] and skeletal muscle mass ratio (SMR) [total skeletal muscle mass (kg)/weight (kg) *100] between the disorder group (hyperchole...
The role of skeletal muscle index (SMI) and systemic inflammation index (SII) for patients with lymph node-positive breast cancer remain controversial. This retrospective study aims to evaluate the individual and synergistic value of SMI and SII in outco
In multiple analysis, SMI or the presence of sarcopenia was both significantly associated with EQ-5D utility index. Subgroup analyses unveiled no discernible interactions between sarcopenia and EQ-5D utility index. Conclusions Muscle quantity measured by SMI was associated with declined HRQoL in males ...
