Shi Y, Sun Y, Shen X, Yang Z, Xu B, Bao C. Combination of handgrip strength and high-sensitivity modified Glasgow prognostic score predicts survival outcomes in patients with colon cancer. Front Nutr 2024; 11:1421560. [PMID: 39010859 PMCID: PMC11247022 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2024.1421560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective Handgrip strength (HGS) and the high-sensitivity modified Glasgow prognostic score (HS-mGPS) are associated with the survival of patients with cancer. However, no studies have investigated the combined effect of HGS and HS-mGPS on the overall survival (OS) of patients with colon cancer. Methods Prospective follow-up data of colon cancer patients undergoing radical resection from April, 2016 to September, 2019 were retrospectively collected. We combined the HGS and HS-mGPS to create a new composite index, HGS-HS-mGPS. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using Cox regression models to assess the association between variables and OS. Risk factors on OS rates were investigated by Cox analyses and the nomogram was constructed using significant predictors and HGS-HS-mGPS. The predictive performance of the nomogram was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve and calibration curve. Results This study included a total of 811 patients, of which 446 (55.0%) were male. The HGS optimal cut-off values of male and female patients were 28.8 and 19.72 kg, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that low HGS and high HS-mGPS were independent risk factors of colon cancer after adjusting confounders (adjusted HR = 3.20; 95% CI: 2.27-4.50; p < 0.001 and adjusted HR = 1.55; 95% CI: 1.12-2.14; p = 0.008 respectively). Patients with low HGS and high HS-mGPS had a 10.76-fold higher mortality risk than those with neither (adjusted HR = 10.76; 95% CI: 5.38-21.54; p < 0.001). A nomogram predicting 1-, 3-, and 5 year OS was constructed based on three clinicopathologic prognostic factors. Importantly, incorporating HGS-HS-mGPS into the nomogram model meaningfully improved the predictive performance. The decision curve analyses demonstrated the application value of the HGS-HS-mGPS nomogram for predicting OS of patients with colon cancer. Conclusion HGS-HS-mGPS is associated with the survival of patients with colon cancer. These findings indicate the usefulness of HGS and HS-mGPS measurements in clinical practice for improving patient assessment, cancer prognosis, and precise intervention.

Association between reduced physical performance measures and short-term consequences after major emergency abdominal surgery: a prospective cohort study. Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg 2024; 50:821-828. [PMID: 38177561 PMCID: PMC11249428 DOI: 10.1007/s00068-023-02408-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Accepted: 11/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Major emergency abdominal surgery is associated with high morbidity with outcomes worse than for similar elective surgery, including complicated physical recovery, increased need for rehabilitation, and prolonged hospitalisation. PURPOSE To investigate whether low physical performance test scores were associated with an increased risk of postoperative complications, and, furthermore, to investigate the feasibility of postoperative performance tests in patients undergoing major emergency abdominal surgery. We hypothesize that patients with low performance test scores suffer more postoperative complications. METHODS The study is a prospective observational cohort study including all patients who underwent major abdominal surgery at the Department of Surgery at Zealand University Hospital between 1st March 2017 and 31st January 2019. Patients were evaluated with De Morton Mobility Index (DEMMI) score, hand grip strength, and 30-s chair-stand test. RESULTS The study included 488 patients (median age 69, 50.6% male). Physiotherapeutic evaluation including physical performance tests with DEMMI and hand grip strength in the immediate postoperative period were feasible in up to 68% of patients undergoing major emergency abdominal surgery. The 30-s chair-stand test was less viable in this population; only 21% of the patients could complete the 30-s chair-stand test during the postoperative period. In logistic regression models low DEMMI score (< 40) and ASA classification and low hand grip strength (< 20 kg for women, < 30 kg for men were independent risk factors for the development of postoperative severe complications Clavien-Dindo (CD) grade ≥ 3. CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing major emergency surgery low performance test scores (DEMMI and hand grip strength), were independently associated with the development of significant postoperative complications CD ≥ 3.

Characteristics and prognostic impact of cancer cachexia defined by the Asian Working Group for Cachexia consensus in patients with curable gastric cancer. Clin Nutr 2024; 43:1524-1531. [PMID: 38744096 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2024.05.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cachexia is prevalent in cancer patients. The conventional diagnostic criteria for cachexia are often based on Western evidence, lacking consensus for Asian populations. This study aims to compare Asian Working Group for Cachexia (AWGC) criteria with Fearon's criteria, assessing their differences in population characteristics and prognostic impact. METHODS The clinical data of patients who underwent radical gastrectomy between 2013 and 2019 were prospectively collected. Cachexia diagnosis involves the utilization of either AWGC criteria and the previous international consensus proposed by Fearon et al. A scoring model is established based on the optional criteria according to the AWGC criteria. Univariate and multivariate logistic and Cox regression analysis were conducted to determine the independent effect factors for postoperative complications and overall survival. RESULTS In a total of 1330 patients, 461 met AWGC cachexia criteria and 311 met Fearon's criteria. Excluding 262 overlapping cases, those diagnosed solely with AWGC-cachexia had higher age and lower BMI, albumin, hemoglobin, and handgrip strength compared to those by Fearon's criteria alone. AWGC-cachexia independently increased the risk of postoperative complications, whereas Fearon's criteria did not. Patients with AWGC-cachexia also exhibited shorter overall survival than Fearon's criteria. The AWGC-based cachexia grading system effectively stratifies the risks of postoperative complications and mortality. CONCLUSIONS The AWGC criteria is more effective in diagnosing cancer cachexia in the Asian population and provide better prognostic indicators.

Abstract
Current management of esophageal carcinoma (EC) involves combining different modalities, offering the opportunity of personalized strategies. This is particularly enticing in the geriatric population, where tailoring treatment modalities remains key to achieve good outcomes in terms of both quality of life and survival. Primary outcomes of our review included (1) evidence on short-term outcomes following esophagectomy, and (2) evidence on long-term outcomes following esophagectomy. Secondary review questions compared outcomes of (1) neoadjuvant treatment versus upfront surgery for locally advanced esophageal carcinoma, (2) endoscopic submucosal dissection versus esophagectomy for early esophageal carcinoma, and (3) definitive radiation with or without chemotherapy versus surgery. Twenty-six articles were included in the review for the main review questions. Our systematic review underscores the need for comprehensive geriatric evaluations to guide decision-making. Despite concerns about perioperative risks, well-selected older patients can derive survival benefits from surgical intervention.

Abstract
Limited information is available regarding the association between preoperative lung function and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in patients with esophageal cancer who undergo esophagectomy. This is a retrospective cohort study. Patients were classified into low and high lung function groups by the cutoff of the lowest fifth quintile of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) %predicted (%pred) and diffusing capacity of the carbon monoxide (DLco) %pred. The PPCs compromised of atelectasis requiring bronchoscopic intervention, pneumonia, and acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome. Modified multivariable-adjusted Poisson regression model using robust error variances and inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) were used to assess the relative risk (RR) for the PPCs. A joint effect model considered FEV1%pred and DLco %pred together for the estimation of RR for the PPCs. Of 810 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent esophagectomy, 159 (19.6%) developed PPCs. The adjusted RR for PPCs in the low FEV1 group relative to high FEV1 group was 1.48 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.09-2.00) and 1.98 (95% CI = 1.46-2.68) in the low DLco group relative to the high DLco group. A joint effect model showed adjusted RR of PPCs was highest in patients with low DLco and low FEV1 followed by low DLco and high FEV1, high DLco and low FEV1, and high DLco and high FEV1 (Reference). Results were consistent with the IPTW. Reduced preoperative lung function (FEV1 and DLco) is associated with post-esophagectomy PPCs. The risk was further strengthened when both values decreased together.

Abstract
Esophagectomy is an exemplar of complex oncological surgery and is associated with a relatively high risk of major morbidity and mortality. In the modern era, where specific complications are targeted in prevention and treatment pathways, and where the principles of enhanced recovery after surgery are espoused, optimum outcomes are targeted via a number of approaches. These include comprehensive clinical and physiological risk assessment, specialist perioperative care by a high-volume team, and multimodal inputs throughout the patient journey that aim to preserve or restore nutritional deficits, muscle mass and function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The assessment of muscle mass loss, muscle strength, and physical function has been recommended in diagnosing sarcopenia. However, only muscle mass has been assessed in previous studies. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of comprehensively diagnosed preoperative sarcopenia on the prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer. METHODS The study analyzed 115 patients with esophageal cancer (age ≥ 65 years) who underwent curative esophagectomy. Preoperative sarcopenia was analyzed using the skeletal mass index (SMI), handgrip strength, and gait speed based on the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019 criteria. Clinicopathologic factors, incidence of postoperative complications, and overall survival (OS) were compared between the sarcopenia and non-sarcopenia groups. The significance of the three individual parameters also was evaluated. RESULTS The evaluation identified 47 (40.9%) patients with low SMI, 31 (27.0%) patients with low handgrip strength, and 6 (5.2%) patients with slow gait speed. Sarcopenia was diagnosed in 23 patients (20%) and associated with older age and advanced pT stage. The incidence of postoperative complications did not differ significantly between the two groups. Among the three parameters, only slow gait speed was associated with Clavien-Dindo grade 2 or greater complications. The sarcopenia group showed significantly worse OS than the non-sarcopenia group. Those with low handgrip strength tended to have worse OS, and those with slow gait speed had significantly worse OS than their counterparts. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative sarcopenia diagnosed using skeletal muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical function may have an impact on the survival of patients with esophageal cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although elective surgery is generally safe, some procedures remain associated with an increased risk of complications. Improved preoperative risk stratification and earlier recognition of these complications may ameliorate postoperative recovery and improve long-term outcomes. The perioperative longitudinal study of complications and long-term outcomes (PLUTO) cohort aims to establish a comprehensive biorepository that will facilitate research in this field. In this profile paper, we will discuss its design rationale and opportunities for future studies. PARTICIPANTS Patients undergoing elective intermediate to high-risk non-cardiac surgery are eligible for enrolment. For the first seven postoperative days, participants are subjected to daily bedside visits by dedicated observers, who adjudicate clinical events and perform non-invasive physiological measurements (including handheld spirometry and single-channel electroencephalography). Blood samples and microbiome specimens are collected at preselected time points. Primary study outcomes are the postoperative occurrence of nosocomial infections, major adverse cardiac events, pulmonary complications, acute kidney injury and delirium/acute encephalopathy. Secondary outcomes include mortality and quality of life, as well as the long-term occurrence of psychopathology, cognitive dysfunction and chronic pain. FINDINGS TO DATE Enrolment of the first participant occurred early 2020. During the inception phase of the project (first 2 years), 431 patients were eligible of whom 297 patients consented to participate (69%). Observed event rate was 42% overall, with the most frequent complication being infection. FUTURE PLANS The main purpose of the PLUTO biorepository is to provide a framework for research in the field of perioperative medicine and anaesthesiology, by storing high-quality clinical data and biomaterials for future studies. In addition, PLUTO aims to establish a logistical platform for conducting embedded clinical trials. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT05331118.

Current status of the association between malnutrition defined by the GLIM criteria and postoperative outcomes in gastrointestinal surgery for cancer: a narrative review. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2023; 149:1635-1643. [PMID: 35804248 DOI: 10.1007/s00432-022-04175-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Accepted: 06/26/2022] [Indexed: 10/17/2022]
Abstract
In 2018, the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition consortium published global consensus diagnostic criteria for malnutrition and highlighted the association between malnutrition and poor postoperative outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal cancer. The aforementioned criteria consist of phenotypic and etiologic criteria to diagnose malnutrition in individuals who undergo conventional screening to determine the at-risk population. Recent studies have reported the usefulness of prediction of postoperative outcomes using body mass index, weight loss, and reduced muscle mass as phenotypic criteria. Reduced muscle mass is an essential diagnostic criterion for sarcopenia, which is associated with poor outcomes in patients with cancer. The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria define reduced muscle mass as undernutrition. Malnutrition diagnosed based on the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria is an important risk factor for postoperative complications and also an independent poor prognostic factor for long-term outcomes; greater severity of malnutrition is associated with poorer outcomes. The current Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria for malnutrition accurately predict outcomes, including postoperative complications and long-term prognosis; however, a revision may be warranted to ensure consistency with the diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia. Patients diagnosed with malnutrition based on the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria should be targeted for nutritional intervention. Further accumulation of evidence is necessary to conclusively establish the role of nutritional interventions in patients with malnutrition to improve postoperative complications and long-term outcomes.

J Geriatr Oncol 2023; 14:101426. [PMID: 36696880 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgo.2023.101426] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2022] [Revised: 12/02/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Low physical function is associated with adverse outcomes in older adults with cancer, but evidence on real-world, clinical management of low physical function in oncology is lacking. We explored whether impairments in muscle strength and/or physical performance triggered downstream management by clinicians, the types of recommended strategies, and the reasons for not providing a referral/strategy for addressing such impairments in older cancer survivors prior to treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective, cross-sectional study of older adults who completed a comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) prior to cancer treatment in a tertiary cancer centre. Muscle strength and physical performance were assessed through grip strength and the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), respectively. Patients who exhibited an impairment in grip strength and/or SPPB were classified as having abnormal objective physical function. Downstream management strategies and clinicians' reasons for not providing referrals were retrieved from clinical notes and an institutional database. RESULTS In total, 515 older adults (mean age: 80.7 years) were included. Low grip strength and/or SPPB combined was observed in 66.4% (n = 342) of participants, of whom 54.1% (n = 185) received an acceptable intervention. However, 41.2% (n = 141) were not provided with a referral/strategy by clinicians to address such impairments following CGA. No reasons were provided in clinical notes for not addressing impairments in physical function for 100 participants (70.9%). DISCUSSION Many older adults with cancer have impaired physical function prior to treatment. However, we found that such impairments are not systematically addressed by clinicians, and documentation was often suboptimal, identifying gaps in patient care that need to be addressed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Physical activity is important to improve recovery following surgery. This study investigated the impact of physical activity on the development of pneumonia after radical esophagectomy in patients with thoracic esophageal cancer in the subacute phase from postoperative day 11 to hospital discharge. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 83 patients who underwent radical esophagectomy for esophageal cancer between 2016 and 2022. Physical activity was measured using an activity tracker, and the average number of steps between postoperative days 8 and 10 was examined. The primary outcome was pneumonia (Clavien-Dindo classification 2 or higher) developing between postoperative day 11 and hospital discharge. We used the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis to calculate the optimal cutoff value of physical activity that can predict the development of pneumonia and define low physical activity. We used logistic regression analysis to investigate the impact of low physical activity on postoperative pneumonia. RESULTS Pneumonia developed in 10 patients (12.0%) during the observation period. The optimal cutoff value of physical activity for predicting pneumonia was 1494 steps per day (sensitivity: 60.0%, specificity: 89.0%, area under the curve: 0.743). In multivariate analysis, low physical activity was an independent predictor of incident pneumonia [odds ratio: 12.10, 95% confidence interval: 2.21-65.90, p = 0.004], with adjustment for age, gastric tube reconstruction route, and postoperative recurrent nerve palsy. CONCLUSIONS Physical activity following radical esophagectomy in patients with thoracic esophageal cancer was an independent predictor of the development of pneumonia in the subacute phase after radical esophagectomy.

Impact of Preoperative Handgrip Strength on Postoperative Outcome after Radical Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer Patients. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11237129. [PMID: 36498702 PMCID: PMC9737860 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11237129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2022] [Revised: 11/14/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, we investigated whether preoperative low-handgrip strength (HGS) defined by the Asian working group for sarcopenia could be a predictor of postoperative outcomes in patients with gastric cancer. A total of 327 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for c-stage I-III primary gastric cancer with pre-operative HGS records were included. The cut-off values of HGS were defined as 28 kg for males and 18 kg for females, with values below and above the cut-off defined as low-HGS and high-HGS, respectively. The primary outcome was infectious complications. We compared the postoperative outcomes of the groups after adjusting for the background using propensity score matching. Of the 327 patients, 246 (75.2%) and 81 (24.8%) were in the high and low-HGS groups, respectively. After adjusting for background, there were 57 patients in both groups. After matching, the low-HGS group had significantly more infectious complications (17.5% vs. 1.8%, p = 0.008). Multivariate analysis of infectious complications in the low-HGS group demonstrated chronic kidney disease and diabetes as independent risk factors (odds ratio 4.390, 95% confidence interval 1.120-17.20, p = 0.034). Preoperative low-HGS according to the Asian criteria was associated with infectious complications after gastrectomy. Chronic kidney disease and diabetes were independent risk factors for infectious complications among patients with low-HGS.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between preoperative physical performance (grip strength, gait speed, timed up and go) and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in patients who have undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). From September 2019 to August 2021, a total of 497 CABG patients who met the inclusion criteria of this study were examined for grip strength, 4-m gait speed, and timed up and go (TUG) before CABG surgery. Among them, 438 were included in the final analysis. PPCs were classified according to the operational definition of Kroenke et al. and patients with clinically significant PPCs were included in the data analysis. Logistic regression was utilised to analyse the relationship between physical performance and clinically significant PPCs. Besides, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was applied to analyse the predictive effect of grip strength, gait speed, and TUG on clinically significant PPCs after the CABG procedure. In total, 103 (23.5%) patients developed clinically significant PPCs after CABG. After making adjustments for the European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (EuroSCORE) and confounding factors, we established that low grip/weight (OR 0.510; 95% CI 0.363–0.715), slow gait speed (OR 0.619; 95% CI 0.517–0.741), and prolonged TUG (OR 1.617; 95% CI 1.379–1.895) were all independently correlated with clinically significant PPCs after CABG. The ROC curve analysis indicated that the area under the ROC curve of the integrated model of the three indicators (AUC 0.792 vs. 0.682, 0.754, 0.765) was larger than that of the model with a single indicator. Besides the predictive effect of the integrated model was superior to the models using grip/weight, gait speed, or TUG alone. Physical performance, including grip/weight, gait speed, and TUG, is a predictive factor for PPCs in CABG patients, and can be used in preoperative evaluations to and help improve the management of high-risk patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to explore the predictive value of preoperative handgrip strength on postoperative outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal tumors. METHODS Databases including Cochrane Library, Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, and CINAHL Complete were searched for articles published from the establishment of database until August 7, 2021. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted the data, and evaluated the quality. RESULTS Eight studies were included, involving five prospective and three retrospective cohort studies with 2291 participants. The prevalence of preoperative low handgrip strength ranged from 11.8 to 62.7%. Preoperative low handgrip strength was associated with an increased risk of total complications (OR = 2.23, 95%CI = 1.43-3.50), pneumonia (OR = 5.16, 95%CI = 3.17-8.38), ileus (OR = 2.48, 95%CI = 1.09-5.65), and short-term mortality (OR = 7.28, 95%CI = 1.90-27.92). CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis indicated that preoperative HGS had important value to predict certain adverse postoperative outcomes among patients with GI tumors. Low handgrip strength criteria, definition of total complications, and country are the potential sources of heterogeneity, and more research are required to test and update these results.

[PMID: 33575809 DOI: 10.1093/dote/doab008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2020] [Revised: 01/05/2021] [Accepted: 01/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Although neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) is frequently used in esophageal cancer patients undergoing treatment with curative intent, it can negatively impact patients' physical fitness. A decline in physical fitness during chemoradiotherapy may be an indication of vulnerability. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether changes in physical fitness, weight, and fat-free mass index (FFMI) during nCRT can predict the risk of postoperative pneumonia. A retrospective longitudinal observational cohort study was performed in patients who received curative treatment for esophageal cancer between September 2016 and September 2018 in a high-volume center for esophageal cancer surgery. Physical fitness (handgrip strength, leg extension strength, and exercise capacity), weight, and FFMI were measured before and after chemoradiotherapy. To be included in the data analyses, pre- and post-nCRT data had to be available of at least one of the outcome measures. Logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the predictive value of changes in physical fitness, weight, and FFMI during nCRT on postoperative pneumonia, as defined by the Uniform Pneumonia Scale. In total, 91 patients were included in the data analyses. Significant associations were found between the changes in handgrip strength (odds ratio [OR] 0.880, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.813-0.952) and exercise capacity (OR 0.939, 95%CI: 0.887-0.993) and the occurrence of postoperative pneumonia. All pneumonias occurred in patients with declines in handgrip strength and exercise capacity after nCRT. A decrease of handgrip strength and exercise capacity during nCRT predicts the risk of pneumonia after esophagectomy for cancer. Measuring physical fitness before and after chemoradiotherapy seems an adequate method to identify patients at risk of postoperative pneumonia.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Hand grip strength (HGS) is one of diagnose criteria factors of sarcopenia and is associated with the survival of patients with cancer. However, few studies have addressed the association of HGS and 1 year mortality of patients with cancer cachexia. METHODS This cohort study included 8466 patients with malignant solid tumour from 40 clinical centres throughout China. Cachexia was diagnosed using the 2011 International cancer cachexia consensus. The hazard ratio (HR) of all cancer cachexia mortality was calculated using Cox proportional hazard regression models. Kaplan-Meier curves were generated to evaluate the association between HGS and the 1 year mortality of patients with cancer cachexia. The interaction analysis was used to explore the combined effect of low HGS and other factors on the overall survival of patients with cancer cachexia. RESULTS Among all participants, 1434 (16.9%) patients with cancer were diagnosed with cachexia according to the 2011 International cancer cachexia consensus with a mean (SD) age of 57.75 (12.97) years, among which there were 871 (60.7%) male patients. The HGS optimal cut-off points of male and female patients were 19.87 and 14.3 kg, respectively. Patients with cancer cachexia had lower HGS than those patients without cachexia (P < 0.05). In the multivariable Cox analysis, low HGS was an independent risk factor of cachexia [HR: 1.491, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.257-1.769] after adjusting other factors. In addition, all of cancer cachexia patients with lower HGS had unfavourable 1 year survival (P < 0.001). In a subset analysis, low HGS was an independent prognosis factor of male patients with cancer cachexia (HR: 1.623, 95% CI: 1.308-2.014, P < 0.001), but not in female patients (HR: 1.947, 95% CI: 0.956-3.963, P = 0.0662), and low HGS was associated with poor 1 year survival of digestive system, respiratory system, and other cancer cachexia patients (all P < 0.05). Low HGS has combined effects with high neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio or low albumin on unfavourable overall survival of patients with cancer cachexia. CONCLUSIONS Low HGS was associated with poor 1 year survival of patients with cancer cachexia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition in hospitalised patients is an important and underestimated problem, with a negative impact on outcome and survival - not only in surgical patients. There is a discrepancy between optimal treatment as defined in relevant guidelines on clinical nutrition and the clinical reality. The Main reason for this discrepancy is the lack of established structures for nutrition medicine as an integral part of clinical routines. The necessary structural development is impaired mainly by the lack of resources, but in isolated cases also by the lack of appreciation of the problem. Therefore, practicability and feasibility with regard to local conditions are pivotal for sustainable improvement in a nutrition strategy in hospitalised patients. METHODS We describe the institutional and procedural measures taken at a tertiary referral centre to implement a nutrition medicine strategy. The underlying nutrition medicine methodology and definitions are introduced and practical implementation at our centre is illustrated by four examples of ongoing projects. RESULTS Using the described systematics, structural changes were implemented at our centre within one year that allowed malnutrition screening, the treatment of patients with complex nutritional care and improvements in the nutritive status of hospitalised patients by ongoing and future project initiatives. SUMMARY The successfully implemented structural change at the University Hospital of Bonn described here may serve as a modular example for other hospitals striving to improve clinical nutrition and outcome in hospitalised patients.

Ann Phys Rehabil Med 2021; 65:101511. [PMID: 33857656 DOI: 10.1016/j.rehab.2021.101511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2020] [Revised: 01/26/2021] [Accepted: 01/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Inspiratory muscle strength is associated with pneumonia in patients after surgery or those with subacute stroke. However, inspiratory muscle strength in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been studied. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the predictive value of inspiratory muscle strength for pneumonia in patients with AMI. METHODS Patients with AMI were consecutively enrolled from March 2019 to September 2019. Measurements of maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) were used to estimate inspiratory muscle strength and mostly were taken within 24 hr after culprit-vessel revascularization. Patients were divided into 3 groups by MIP tertile (T1: < 56.1 cm H2O, n = 88; T2: 56.1-84.9 cm H2O, n = 88; T3: > 84.9 cm H2O, n=89). The primary endpoint was in-hospital pneumonia. RESULTS Among 265 enrolled patients, pneumonia developed in 26 (10%). The rates of pneumonia were decreased from MIP T1 to T3 (T1: 17%, T2: 10%, T3: 2%, P = 0.004). In-hospital all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) did not differ between groups. Multivariate logistic regression confirmed increased MIP associated with reduced risk of pneumonia (odds ratio 0.78, 95% confidence interval 0.65-0.94, P = 0.008). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that MIP had good performance for predicting in-hospital pneumonia, with an area under the curve of 0.72 (95% confidence interval 0.64-0.81, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The risk of pneumonia but not in-hospital mortality and MACEs was increased in AMI patients with inspiratory muscle weakness. Future study focused on training inspiratory muscle may be helpful.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Malnutrition is prevalent in oesophageal cancer. Evidence for the use of nutrition support and prehabilitation in this cohort is variable. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of early nutrition support and functional measures of nutritional status on post-operative outcomes in adult patients with oesophageal cancer. METHODS Retrospective review of adults with oesophageal cancer undergoing oesophagectomy (n = 151). Early nutrition support was defined as: oral or enteral nutrition supplementation during neoadjuvant treatment. Late nutrition support defined as: oral or enteral nutrition supplementation prescribed post-operatively. Nutrition outcome measures were; percentage weight loss from 3 to 6 months prior to diagnosis, peri- and post-operatively, and pre-operative assessment of handgrip-strength (HGS). RESULTS Pre-operative weight loss ≥10% was a significant predictor of mortality at 1 year (OR 2.84, 95%CI 1.03-7.83, p = 0.04) independent of tumour stage, adjuvant treatment, age and gender. Adults prescribed early nutrition support during neoadjuvant treatment experienced less weight loss at 12-months post-oesophagectomy compared to adults prescribed late oral nutrition support (p=<0.05). Pre-operative HGS measurements were not a useful predictor of postoperative complications (p = 0.2), length of stay (p = 0.9) or 90-day mortality (p = 0.6). CONCLUSIONS Pre-operative weight loss ≥10% was associated with mortality. Early nutrition support was associated with less weight loss at 12-months post-operatively. Pre-operative HGS measures did not have prognostic value as a stand-alone measure. Future work should investigate the efficacy of early nutrition support in reducing both pre- and post-operative weight loss to improve nutritional status and surgical outcomes as part of a multimodal prehabilitation programme in adults with oesophageal cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE The correlation of the hand grip strength (HGS) and long-term outcomes after gastrectomy for gastric cancer patients is unknown. This study reveals the impact of the pre-operative HGS on the post-operative survival in gastric cancer patients. METHODS This study is a retrospective cohort of consecutive patients who underwent gastrectomy for primary p-T2 (MP) or more advanced gastric cancer from September 2014 to April 2018 with records of pre-operative HGS. The high and low HGS groups were compared by Kaplan-Meier survival analyses for the overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), other-cause survival (OCS), and disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS Of the 96 patients, 35 (36.5%) were in the low HGS group, and 61 (63.5%) were in the high HGS group. The OS was significantly worse in the low HGS group than in the high HGS group (P = 0.013). There was no marked difference in the CSS (P = 0.214) or DFS (P = 0.675) between the groups, but the OCS was worse in the low HGS group than in the high HGS group (P = 0.029). Multivariate analyses of the prognostic factors concluded that a low HGS (P = 0.031) and open surgery (P = 0.011) were significant independent factors. CONCLUSIONS A low pre-operative HGS is an independent predictor of a poor prognosis after gastrectomy for patients with advanced gastric cancer and may increase the risk of other causes of death.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Handgrip strength (HGS) is associated with poor clinical outcomes, including all-cause, non-cardiovascular, and cardiovascular mortalities. The published cut-off points for HGS are mostly based on community populations from Western countries, lacking information on cancer patients from China. The objective of this study was to establish sex-specific cut-off points for Chinese cancer patients and investigate the effect of low HGS on cancer mortality. METHODS We did a retrospective cohort study of patients who were diagnosed with malignant cancer from June 2012 to December 2018. HGS was measured using a hand dynamometer in 8257 cancer patients. Optimal stratification was used to solve threshold points. The hazard ratio (HR) of all cancer mortality and cancer-specific mortality was calculated using Cox proportional hazard regression models. RESULTS Among all participants, there were 3902 (47.3%) women and 4355 (52.7%) men. The median age was 58 years old. The cut-off points of HGS to best classify patients with respect to time to mortality were <16.1 kg for women and <22 kg for men. Low HGS was associated with overall cancer mortality in both women and men [HR = 1.339, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.170-1.531, P < 0.001; HR = 1.346, 95% CI = 1.176-1.540, P < 0.001, respectively]. For specific cancer types, low HGS was associated with breast cancer (HR = 1.593, 95% CI = 1.230-2.063, P < 0.001) in women, and lung cancer (HR = 1.369, 95% CI = 1.005-1.866, P = 0.047) and colorectal cancer (HR = 1.399, 95% CI = 1.007-1.944, P = 0.045) in men. CONCLUSIONS On the basis of our sex-specific cut-off points, low HGS was strongly associated with cancer mortalities. These results indicate the usefulness of HGS measurement in routine clinical practice for improving patient assessments, cancer prognosis, and intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) can objectively measure fitness and oxygen uptake at anaerobic threshold. The relationship between fitness and postoperative outcomes after upper gastro-intestinal surgery is unclear. The aim of the present review is to assess the prognostic ability of CPX in predicting postoperative outcome associated with oesophagogastric surgery. METHODS Relevant studies were identified through a systematic search of EMBASE, Medline, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science to July 2019. The eligibility criteria for studies included prognostic studies of upper gastro-intestinal surgery among adult populations using a preoperative CPX and measurement of postoperative outcome (mortality or morbidity or length of stay). Risk of bias was assessed using the QUIPS Quality in Prognostic Studies validated tool. RESULTS Thirteen papers with a total of 1735 participants were included in data extraction. A total of 7 studies examined the association between CPX variables and postoperative mortality. Patients undergoing gastro-intestinal surgery with lower anaerobic threshold values were found to have an increased risk of postoperative mortality. Similarly, a lower rate of oxygen consumption was found to be associated with higher mortality. There was conflicting evidence regarding the association between CPX variables and postoperative morbidity. The evidence did not demonstrate any association between preoperative CPX variables and hospital length of stay. CONCLUSION Studies report an association between CPX variables and postoperative mortality; however, there is conflicting evidence regarding the association between CPX variables and postoperative morbidity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients undergoing oesophagectomy frequently experience malnutrition, which in combination with the catabolic effects of surgery can result in loss of muscle mass and function. Safe swallowing requires preservation of muscle mass. Swallowing dysfunction puts postoperative patients at risk for aspiration and pneumonia. Modified Barium Swallow Study (MBSS) enables assessment of postoperative swallowing impairments. The current study assessed incidence and risk factors associated with swallowing dysfunction and restricted diet at discharge in patients after oesophagectomy in a high-volume surgical centre. METHODS Patients with an MBSS after oesophagectomy were identified between March 2015 to April 2020 at a high-volume surgical centre. Swallowing was quantitatively evaluated on MBSS with the Rosenbek Penetration-Aspiration Scale (PAS). Muscle loss was evaluated clinically with preoperative hand grip strength (HGS). Univariable and multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses were performed. RESULTS 129 patients (87% male; median age 66 years) underwent oesophagectomy with postoperative MBSS. Univariate analysis revealed older age, preoperative feeding tube, lower preoperative HGS and discharge to non-home were associated with aspiration or penetration on MBSS. Age and preoperative feeding tube remained as independent predictors in the multivariable analysis. Both univariate and multivariable analyses revealed increased age and preoperative feeding tube were associated with diet restrictions at discharge. CONCLUSIONS Swallowing dysfunction after oesophagectomy is correlated with increased age and need for preoperative enteral feeding tube placement. Further research is needed to understand the relationship between muscle loss and aspiration with the goal of enabling preoperative physiological optimisation and patient selection.

Perioperative poor grip strength recovery is associated with 30-day complication rate after cardiac surgery discharge in middle-aged and older adults - a prospective observational study. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2019; 19:266. [PMID: 31775633 PMCID: PMC6882174 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-019-1241-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2019] [Accepted: 10/28/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although perioperative care during heart surgery has improved considerably, the rate of postoperative complications has remained stable. It has not been concluded how to better apply grip strength to clinical, postoperative complications. So our study aimed at researching the best way for using grip value for predicting early postoperative complications. METHODS A total of 212 patients with mean age 63.8 ± 6.3 who underwent cardiac surgery participated in our study. We analyzed the ROC curve of grip strength, grip/weight and grip recovery with complications, found the best cutoff point. Logistic regression confirmed the association between grip strength grouping and complications. RESULTS We found that 36 patients had 30-day complications. EuroSCORE were 2.15 ± 1.52 and 2.42 ± 1.58 between normal and complication groups, respectively. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC) of grip recovery take the most area (0.837, p < 0.001), and the cutoff point was 83.92%. In logistic regression, lower grip recovery has higher risk impact on 30-day complications for 25.68 times than normal group, after adjusted surgery-related factors. After regrouped characteristic information by grip recovery cutoff point, we found that percentage of the estimated 6 min walk distance (41.5 vs 48.3, p = 0.028) and hospitalization time (7.2 vs 6.1, p = 0.042) had worse trends in lower recovery group. CONCLUSIONS Poor grip recovery may be related to higher risk of postoperative complications within 30 days after discharge in middle-aged and older people independent of surgical risk. The results of this study provide a reference for the development of rehabilitation programs in the early postoperative recovery, and may also be a prognostic indicator for postoperative high-risk groups. TRIAL REGISTRATION Our research was registered on Research Registry website, the registry number was ChiCTR1800018465. Date: 2018/9/20. Status: Successful.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumour growth can promote the loss of muscle mass and function. This is particularly disturbing because overall survival is significantly reduced in people with weaker and smaller skeletal muscle. The risk of cancer is also greater in people who are immune deficient. Muscle wasting in mice with cancer can be inhibited by infusion of CD4+ precursor T cells that restore balanced ratios of naïve, memory, and regulatory T cells. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that stronger anti-cancer T cell immunity leads to improved muscle mass and function. As a first step to testing this hypothesis, we determined whether levels of circulating T cell subsets correlate with levels of muscle strength in people with cancer. METHODS The frequency of circulating CD4+ and CD8+ naïve, memory, and regulatory T cell subsets was quantified in 11 men with gastrointestinal cancer (aged 59.3 ± 10.1 years) and nine men without cancer (aged 60 ± 13 years), using flow cytometry. T cell marker expression was determined using real-time PCR and western blot analyses in whole blood and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Handgrip strength, one-repetition maximum chest press, and knee extension tests were used to determine muscle strength. Performance was determined using a stair climb test. Body composition was determined using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan. The Karnofsky and ECOG scales were used to assess functional impairment. Correlations between frequencies of cell subsets with strength, performance, and body composition were determined using regression analyses. RESULTS Our data show significant correlations between (i) higher frequencies of CD8+ naïve (P = 0.02) and effector memory (P = 0.003) T cells and lower frequencies of CD8+ central memory T cells (P = 0.002) with stronger handgrip strength, (ii) lower frequency of regulatory cells with greater lean mass index (P = 0.04), (iii) lower frequency of CD8+ T cells that express CD95 with greater stair climb power (P = 0.003), (iv) higher frequency of T cells that co-express CD197 and CD45RA and greater one-repetition maximum knee extension strength (P = 0.008), and (iv) higher expression of CD4 in whole blood with greater functional impairment (P = 0.004) in people with cancer. CONCLUSIONS We have identified significant correlations between levels of T cell populations and muscle strength, performance, and body composition in people with cancer. These data justify a follow-up study with a larger cohort to test the validity of the findings.

Abstract
Purpose: To investigate relationships among physical activity, changes in physical function, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) among patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma enrolled in a home-based exercise prehabilitation program. Methods: Patients with resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma receiving preoperative chemotherapy and/or chemoradiation were enrolled on this prospective, single-arm trial and were advised to perform ≥60 minutes each of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise and strengthening exercise weekly. Activity was measured via self-report and accelerometers, including moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), light physical activity (LPA), and sedentary activity (SA). Physical function measures at baseline and restaging follow-up included 6-minute walk test (6MWT), 5 times sit-to-stand (5×STS), handgrip strength (HGS), 3-m walk for gait speed (GS), and the PROMIS Physical Function Short Form. HRQOL was measured via the FACT-Hep questionnaire. Results: Fifty participants with mean age 66 years (standard deviation = 8 years) were enrolled. The 6MWT, 5×STS, and GS significantly improved from baseline to restaging follow-up (P=.001, P=.049, and P=.009, respectively). Increases in self-reported aerobic exercise, weekly MVPA, and LPA were associated with improvement in 6MWT (β=.19, P=.048; β=.18, P=.03; and β=.08, P=.03, respectively) and self-reported physical functioning (β=.02, P=.03; β=.03, P=.005; and β=.01, P=.02, respectively). Increased weekly LPA was associated with increased HRQOL (β=.03, P=.02). Increased SA was associated with decreased HRQOL (β=-.02,P=.01). Conclusions: Patients with potentially resectable pancreatic cancer exhibit meaningful improvement in physical function with prehabilitation; physical activity was associated with improved physical function and HRQOL. These data highlight the importance of physical activity during treatment for pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Esophagectomy remains the mainstay of curative intent treatment for esophageal cancer. Oncologic esophagectomy is a highly invasive surgery and both morbidity and mortality rates still remain high. Recently, it has been revealed that multidisciplinary perioperative management can decrease the postoperative complications after esophagectomy. In this review, we summarized the recent progress in each component of multidisciplinary perioperative care bundle, including oral hygiene, cessation of smoking and alcohol, respiratory training, measurement of physical fitness, swallowing evaluation and rehabilitation, nutritional support, pain control and management of delirium. The accumulation of evidence and the popularization of knowledge will increase safety of esophagectomy and thus improve the outcome of patients with esophageal cancer.
