[PMID: 37844015 DOI: 10.1002/pmrj.13083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment for hematological malignancies. Several complications following allo-HSCT, such as graft-versus-host disease, infection, and malnutrition, often cause physical dysfunction, and the assessment of physical function and evaluation of muscle mass are incompletely performed. Use of ultrasound (US) allows muscle mass measurement in patients with poor general conditions. In allo-HSCT recipients, the correlation between physical function and muscle thickness, as measured by US, remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To clarify whether muscle thickness measured by US correlated with physical function in allo-HSCT recipients. DESIGN A single-center prospective cohort study. SETTING Hospital. PATIENTS Ninety-two patients underwent allo-HSCT at our hospital from April 2017 to March 2019. INTERVENTIONS Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Biceps and quadriceps muscle thickness measured by US, grip strength, isometric muscle strength (elbow flexion and knee extension), and 6-minute walking test (6MWT) before allo-HSCT and on days 30, 90, 180, 1 year, and 2 years after allo-HSCT. The implementation rates of these assessments were also investigated. RESULTS Correlations were observed between biceps thickness and elbow flexion muscle strength/grip strength before allo-HSCT, on days 30, 90, 180, 1 year, and 2 years after allo-HSCT (r = 0.71/0.74, 0.73/0.72, 0.70/0.79, 0.67/0.75, 0.72/0.75, and 0.85/0.79, respectively, all p < .001). At the same time points, quadriceps thickness moderately correlated with knee extensor strength (r = 0.49, 0.50, 0.45, 0.64, 0.61, and 0.58, all p < .001). However, biceps and quadriceps thicknesses did not correlate with the 6MWT. The percentages of patients measured with US and 6MWT were 93.4% and 82.4% (p = .01) on day 30 and 97.5% and 87.8% (p = .02) on day 90, respectively. CONCLUSIONS US assessment may be a useful alternative method for estimating muscle strength in fragile allo-HSCT recipients, particularly when physical function assessment is difficult to quantify.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Hematopoietic stem cell transplants play an important role in the treatment of cancer, particularly hematologic malignancies. These patients can encounter functional impairments unique to hematopoietic stem cell transplant, including deconditioning, cancer-related fatigue, steroid myopathy, graft versus host disease, and capillary leak syndrome. Medical fragility and increased risk of infection may make rehabilitation challenging on the acute care and postacute care settings. Patients admitted to acute inpatient rehabilitation experience a high rate of transfer to the primary acute service and high rate of mortality after transfer back. Physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians can use a number of strategies to mitigate these patients' risk of medical complications including evidence-based predictive models to assist with postacute rehabilitation triage, physiatry-led consult-based rehabilitation, and oncology hospitalist comanagement on inpatient rehabilitation.

Long-term survivors demonstrate superior quality of life after haploidentical stem cell transplantation to matched sibling donor transplantation. J Transl Med 2022; 20:596. [DOI: 10.1186/s12967-022-03803-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Abstract
Background
It has been well-documented that haplo-identical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HID-HSCT) can provide outcomes comparable to conventional matched sibling donor (MSD) HSCT, however, little is known about the effects on quality of life (QoL) in long-term survivors. This study is to investigate the differences in longitudinal performance of QoL between HID and MSD HSCT using a comprehensive assessment system.
Methods
This prospective study enrolled consecutive patients who had received allogenic-HSCT (allo-HSCT) between January 2018 and December 2019 in our center. All patients were informed to complete QoL questionnaires including the Mos 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Bone Marrow Transplant (FACT-BMT, version 4), using an online applet, before transplantation and at scheduled time points after transplantation. The linear mixed-effects model was used to analyze the variation trend of different dimensions of both SF-36 and FACT-BMT with different follow-up times.
Results
Of the 425 participants, recipients of HID and MSD who survived more than 1 year (n = 230) were included in the final analysis of QoL (median age [range]: 36, [15, 66]). The 3 year overall survival (OS) of HID and MSD was 82.42% and 86.46%, respectively. QoL was assessed using both SF-36 and FACT-BMT and there was longitudinal recovery with clinical significance in the cohort. Compared to MSD-HSCT patients, HID-HSCT recipients demonstrated superior QoL performance in some subscales describing physical and mental wellness. Specifically, the difference in physical performance is more remarkable using FACT-BMT whereas that in mental wellness is more significant using SF36. In the subsequent stratified analysis, patients with a history of aGVHD or CMV reactivation demonstrated inferior QoL.
Conclusions
Long-term survivors of HID HSCT achieved better QoL in some sub-scales compared to MSD HSCT. In addition, SF-36 and FACT-BMT demonstrated different performance thus combination of both improved capacity of the evaluation system.

Rehabilitation after Allogeneic Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: A Special Challenge. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13246187. [PMID: 34944808 PMCID: PMC8699253 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13246187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2021] [Revised: 12/03/2021] [Accepted: 12/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary After undergoing an allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT), patients need intensive physiological and psychological rehabilitation. This should start immediately after discharge from the transplant ward as in- or outpatient rehabilitation. The rehabilitation centres should be qualified and experienced because this patient group exhibits problems that differ from those of patients who have undergone oncological therapies or autologous HCT. An experienced multidisciplinary team in close consultation with the primary transplantation centre should perform the rehabilitation therapy. This review will show the special challenges of these patients according to different timepoints after HCT. Because there is so little data available, personal experience and general guidelines on patient care after alloHCT are presented. Abstract The general population is getting older and suffer more haematological malignancies despite being physically fit. These malignancies are mainly only curable via an alloHCT, and they are now carried out more frequently. Patients benefit from intensive rehabilitation earlier and may need it repeatedly in cases of severe side effects (e.g., graft-versus-host disease). They can suffer many problems that other cancer patients do not experience, such as severe infections, continued immunosuppression, nutritional restrictions, acute or chronic GvHD, or organ impairments (e.g., lung, eyes). They may also encounter various associated psychological problems, e.g., feeling like a chimera. Rehabilitation centres willing to care for patients after alloHCT should have an experienced multidisciplinary team and should work in close co-operation with the primary transplant centre.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the relationship between exercise intolerance, muscle oxidative metabolism, and cardiopulmonary function following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in a sterile isolation room setting. METHODS This was a prospective observational cohort study conducted in a single center. Fourteen patients with hematopoietic malignancies who had undergone allo-HSCT were included in this study from June 2015 to April 2020. Patients received donor HSCT after high dose-chemotherapy and total-body irradiation. Physical activity was limited during treatments. Outcome measures included body anthropometric measurements, exercise tolerance tests using the ramp protocol, pulmonary function tests, and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measurements. Data of pre- and posttransplant measurements were compared using the paired t test or nonparametric Wilcoxon U test. Associations were assessed using the Pearson or nonparametric Spearman correlations. RESULTS NIRS showed reduced muscle consumption and extraction of oxygen in the posttransplant period compared to the pretransplant period (ΔStO2 min pre: -18.6% vs. post: -13.0%, P = 0.04; ΔHHb max pre: 4.21μmol/l vs. post: 3.31μmol/l: P = 0.048). Exercise tolerance had reduced following allo-HSCT (Peak workload pre: 70.3 W vs. post: 58.0 W: P = 0.014). Furthermore, exercise intolerance was associated with pulmonary function, muscle oxygen consumption, and muscle oxygen extraction (all P <0.05). CONCLUSION This analysis revealed that exercise intolerance following allo-HSCT was associated with pulmonary dysfunction and muscle oxidative dysfunction. These findings could help identify the physical function associated with impaired tissue oxygen transport leading to exercise intolerance following allo-HSCT.

Functional capacity, lung function, and muscle strength in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: A prospective cohort study. Hematol Oncol Stem Cell Ther 2020; 14:126-133. [PMID: 32997971 DOI: 10.1016/j.hemonc.2020.08.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2019] [Revised: 08/28/2020] [Accepted: 08/31/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a treatment for benign and malignant hematological diseases. These aggressive treatments cause reduced levels of physical activity, decreased lung function, and worse quality of life. Alterations in pulmonary function tests before HSCT are associated with the risk of respiratory failure and early mortality. The objective of this study was to evaluate functional capacity and lung function before and after HSCT and identify the predictors of mortality after 2 years. METHODS A prospective cohort study was carried out with individuals with oncohematological diseases. The evaluations were carried out in two moments during hospitalization and at hospital discharge. Follow-up was carried out after 48 months. Assessments were carried out on 34 adults, using spirometry, manovacuometry, 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), Handgrip Strength Test, and 30-Second Chair Stand Test (30-s CST). RESULTS There was a statistically significant reduction for the variables in forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume predicted in the 1st second, Tiffeneau index, handgrip strength, and distance covered (% predicted) on the 6MWT (p < .05). There was a significant difference in the 30-s CST when individuals were compared according to the type of transplant. We found that a 10% reduction in the values of maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) can predict an increased risk for mortality. CONCLUSIONS Individuals undergoing HSCT have reduced functional capacity, lung function, and muscle strength during the hospitalization phase. Reduction in the values of MIP increases the risk of nonrelapse mortality.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is increasingly used in the treatment of hematologic cancers such as leukemias, lymphomas, and myeloma, and for other hematologic disorders such as primary immunodeficiency, aplastic anemia, and myelodysplasia. Allo-HSCT entails a conditioning regimen of frequent high-dose chemotherapy in combination with total body irradiation, followed by infusion of donor-harvested bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells. As an aggressive and demanding medical therapy that profoundly impacts patient quality of life (QOL), allo-HSCT is associated with numerous treatment-related physical, psychological, and psychosocial side effects. The procedure can result in decreased respiratory and balance function, skeletal muscle strength, and exercise capacity. Thus, as physical exercise has been shown to positively effect physical and psychosocial function and QOL in allo-HSCT patients, it is a recommended intervention for improving essential functions and offsetting lost exercise capacity after the procedure. Furthermore, recent evidence has shown that physical exercise can influence survival rate and mortality in allo-HSCT patients. This review provides an overview of the current research on the effectiveness of physical exercise for allo-HSCT patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Impaired skeletal muscle oxygenation potentially contributes to reduced exercise capacity in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) patients during early recovery and may explain altered hemoglobin responses to exercise following allo-HSCT. We investigated whether skeletal muscle oxygenation parameters and hemoglobin parameters in the tibialis anterior decreased following allo-HSCT, and whether these results were associated with declines in exercise capacity. METHODS We used near-infrared spectroscopy during and following a repeated isometric contraction task at 50% of maximal voluntary contraction in 18 patients before and after allo-HSCT. RESULTS The rate of decrease in the muscle oxy-hemoglobin saturation (SmO2; an index of skeletal muscle oxygenation) was significantly lower after allo-HSCT (P < 0.01). In contrast, total hemoglobin (an index of hemoglobin) was not different after allo-HSCT. Furthermore, SmO2 during and following exercise was associated with exercise capacity (r = 0.648; P = 0.004 vs. r = 0.632; P = 0.005). CONCLUSION The results of this study reveal that although the peripheral hemoglobin response was not altered by allo-HSCT, skeletal muscle oxygenation was decreased following allo-HSCT. Furthermore, the decrease in skeletal muscle oxygenation was associated with a reduction in exercise capacity.

Abstract
Impaired oxygen utilization in skeletal muscle potentially contributes to muscle weakness in patients with malignant hematopoietic disease and may explain altered hemodynamic responses to exercise in these patients. We investigated whether changes in hemoglobin parameters in the tibialis anterior muscle in patients with malignant hematopoietic diseases were different from those in age-matched healthy controls and whether these results were associated with a decline in muscle strength. Near-infrared spectroscopy was used during and after a repeated isometric contraction task at 50% of maximal voluntary contraction in 16 patients and 21 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. In the healthy control group, there was a correlation between muscle strength and hemoglobin dynamics, (ΔtHbmean: r = 0.42, p < 0.05; ΔtHbmax: r = 0.575, p < 0.01, respectively) but not in patients with malignant hematopoietic disease. The results of this study may suggest that haemoglobin dynamics during and following exercise were different between patients with malignant hematopoietic disease and healthy controls.
