J Oral Rehabil 2024; 51:1365-1372. [PMID: 38651211 DOI: 10.1111/joor.13711] [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: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between oral food intake and oral function during the subacute stage of stroke is not well known. OBJECTIVE To investigate (1) oral function changes in subacute stroke patients and (2) association between oral function and oral intake status at several time points. METHODS In a prospective study involving 324 stroke patients at a convalescent rehabilitation unit, four oral function parameters (maximum tongue pressure, MTP; lip-tongue motor function, LTMF; maximum occlusal force, MOF and oral health assessment tool, OHAT) were quantitatively measured upon admission (T0), at 1 month (T1) and 2 months (T2). Oral feeding status was assessed using the Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS) and divided based on the FOIS score into the dysphagic and regular diet groups. The changes in oral functions at the three time points were tested using generalized estimating equation analysis. The association between FOIS groups and oral functions at T1 and T2 was analysed by means of logistic regression analysis. RESULTS All oral function parameters improved significantly over time during the hospital stay (mean differences: 4.9 for MTP, 0.6 for LTMF, 1.1 for MOF and -1.8 for OHAT). The FOIS groups were significantly associated with MTP (p < .05) and OHAT (p < .05) at both T1 and T2. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that oral function significantly improves in patients during subacute stroke rehabilitation and better oral health can be associated with better oral intake. Improved oral function through dental intervention and oral rehabilitation may contribute to gains in oral food intake.

Abstract
Malnutrition is a common condition in geriatric rehabilitation settings; however, the accuracy and predictive validity of the measures to identify malnutrition have not been established. The current scoping review followed the Joanna Briggs Institute's evidence synthesis manual and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Extension for Scoping Reviews checklist. Literature published through September 2023 was searched using MEDLINE and CINAHL. The inclusion criteria selected studies reporting malnutrition measures, which include static body weight and weight loss. Identified tools were classified as nutritional screening tools, nutritional assessment tools, or diagnostic criteria. The domains of each tool/criterion and their accuracy and predictive validity were extracted. Fifty-six articles fulfilled the inclusion criteria, and six nutritional screening tools, three nutritional assessment tools, and three diagnostic criteria for malnutrition were identified. These measures consisted of various phenotypes, e.g., weight loss, causes such as inflammation/disease, and risk factors of malnutrition, e.g., functional impairment. The predictive validity of nutritional screening tools (n = 6) and malnutrition diagnostic criteria (n = 5) were inconsistently reported, whereas those for nutritional assessment tools were scarce (n = 1). These findings highlight the need to distinguish the functional impairment of nutritional origin from that of non-nutritional origin in nutritional assessment procedures, and the need to study the accuracy and the predictive validity of these measures in geriatric rehabilitation patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the associations between oral health status and short-term functional outcomes in hospitalized patients aged over 65 years with acute ischemic stroke. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective observational analysis included older adult patients (age, ≥ 65 years) admitted for acute ischemic stroke. The oral health status at admission was evaluated using the Oral Health Assessment Tool (OHAT). Patients were categorized into the normal oral health (OHAT score, 0-2) or poor oral health (OHAT score, ≥ 3) group. Stroke severity, Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS), and medical history were compared. Multivariate analysis was used to determine the association between the OHAT score and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at discharge, FOIS score at discharge, and length of hospital stay. RESULTS The study comprised 129 patients (mean age: 78.8 ± 7.7 years). The poor oral health group (n = 22) had a higher stroke severity and lower FOIS scores than the normal oral health group (n = 107). The poor oral health group exhibited significantly higher rates of moderate to severe disability at discharge (odds ratio = 9.18, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.74-48.30, P = 0.009), lower FOIS scores at discharge (β = -0.96, 95% CI: -1.71 to -0.20, P = 0.014), and longer hospital stays (β = 10.70, 95% CI: 0.80-20.61, P = 0.034) than the other group. CONCLUSION In older patients with acute ischemic stroke, poor oral health status at admission was associated with worse short-term functional outcomes, including increased disability, dysphagia, and longer hospital stay. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Assessing and addressing the oral health status of this population can potentially improve short-term functional outcomes and enhance comprehensive stroke care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between nutritional status measured by the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria and the intensity of physical activity, and to determine the association between these factors and the activities of daily living (ADLs) in patients with subacute stroke during hospitalization. DESIGN A cross-sectional study. SETTING The study was conducted in the rehabilitation unit at a neurosurgical hospital. PARTICIPANTS One hundred and twenty-eight patients with subacute stroke (N=128). INTERVENTIONS Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Nutritional status was assessed using GLIM criteria. Sedentary behavior (SB), light-intensity physical activity (LIPA), and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) were measured using an accelerometer. Multiple regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship between nutritional status and intensity of physical activity. Moreover, the association of nutritional status and physical activity intensity with ADLs was determined using multiple regression analysis and mediation analysis. RESULTS Malnutrition was associated with SB time (B = 16.241, P=.009) and LIPA time (B = -17.656, P=.002), but not MVPA time (B = -0.472, P=.776). SB time (B = -0.063, P=.009) and LIPA time (B = 0.093, P<.001) were associated with functional independence measure for motor function, while MVPA time (B = -0.080, P=.379) was not. SB time (coefficient = -10.785, P<.001) and LIPA time (coefficient = -12.054, P<.001) were significant mediators between nutrition status and ADLs. CONCLUSIONS Malnutrition was associated with a SB time and LIPA time, but not MVPA time, in patients with sub-acute stroke. SB and LIPA times were associated with ADLs and mediated between nutrition status and ADLs in these patients. The association of nutritional status on physical activity and ADLs should be considered in stroke rehabilitation.

Predictive Value of Malnutrition, Identified via Different Nutritional Screening or Assessment Tools, for Functional Outcomes in Patients with Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Nutrients 2023; 15:3280. [PMID: 37513698 PMCID: PMC10383200 DOI: 10.3390/nu15143280] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2023] [Revised: 07/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition affects more than half of patients with stroke. Although malnutrition leads to more deaths, a longer hospital stay, and higher costs, there is still a lack of consensus regarding the impact of malnutrition on physical functional outcomes in patients with stroke, and there are large differences in the diagnostic effects of nutritional screening or assessment tools for malnutrition. This study aimed to explore the impact of malnutrition in patients with stroke and assess the significance of current nutritional screening and assessment tools for these patients. METHODS Six databases were systematically searched until October 2022. Cohort studies meeting the eligibility criteria were included. Pooled effects were calculated using random-effects models. RESULTS Twenty-six studies with 21,115 participants were included. The pooled effects of malnutrition on poor functional outcome, FIM points, and dysphagia were OR = 2.72 (95% CI = 1.84-4.06), WMD = -19.42(95% CI = -32.87--5.96), and OR = 2.80 (95% CI = 1.67-4.67), respectively. CONCLUSION Malnutrition adversely affects the recovery of physical and swallowing functions in patients with stroke. Nutritional assessments consistently predict the outcomes of physical function in patients with stroke.

Akazawa N, Kishi M, Hino T, Tsuji R, Tamura K, Hioka A, Moriyama H. The degree of recovery in swallowing ability in older inpatients with aspiration pneumonia is related to intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps than to muscle mass. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0275810. [PMID: 36215269 PMCID: PMC9550090 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0275810] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIM A recent study reported that the increase in intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps in older inpatients is related to a decreasing degree of recovery in swallowing ability compared to the loss of muscle mass. However, whether the association remains true in case of aspiration pneumonia is unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship between the degree of recovery in swallowing ability and intramuscular adipose tissue in the quadriceps of older inpatients with aspiration pneumonia. METHODS This prospective study included 39 older patients with aspiration pneumonia. Swallowing ability was assessed using the Food Intake Level Scale (FILS). The indicators for the degree of recovery in swallowing ability were FILS at discharge and change in FILS. A greater change in FILS indicates a greater improvement in swallowing ability. Intramuscular adipose tissue and muscle mass of the quadriceps were evaluated at admission using echo intensity and muscle thickness on ultrasound images, respectively. Multiple regression analysis was used to determine whether the echo intensity of the quadriceps was independently and significantly related to FILS at discharge and the change in FILS. Independent variables were age, sex, days from disease onset, echo intensity and muscle thickness of the quadriceps, subcutaneous fat thickness of the thigh, FILS at admission, and number of units of rehabilitation therapy. RESULTS Echo intensity of the quadriceps (β = -0.363, p = 0.012) and FILS at admission (β = 0.556, p < 0.001) were independently and significantly associated with FILS at discharge (R2 = 0.760, f2 = 3.167, statistical power = 1.000). Similar variables (echo intensity of the quadriceps [β = -0.498, p = 0.012] and FILS at admission [β = -0.635, p < 0.001]) were independently and significantly related to change in FILS (R2 = 0.547, f2 = 1.208, statistical power = 0.998). Quadriceps muscle thickness was not independently and significantly related to FILS at discharge and change in FILS. CONCLUSION Our results indicate that intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps in older inpatients with aspiration pneumonia is more strongly related to the degree of recovery in swallowing ability (that is, swallowing ability at discharge and change in swallowing ability) than muscle mass, and patients who have high intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps at admission have a lower degree of recovery in swallowing ability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of sarcopenia on the recovery of swallowing function, and the interaction among sarcopenia, nutrition care, and rehabilitation therapy are inconclusive. METHODS This multicenter cohort study was conducted between November 2018 and October 2020 in convalescent rehabilitation hospitals in Japan and included post-stroke patients aged ≥65 years with dysphagia. All participants were assigned to sarcopenia and non-sarcopenia groups. The primary outcome was the achievement of ≥2 Food Intake Level Scale [FILS] gain, and the secondary outcomes included Functional Independence Measure (FIM) gain and efficiency. Considering the effect modification of energy intake and rehabilitation duration, logistic regression analyses were performed. RESULTS Overall, 153 participants with (median age, 82 years; 57.5% women) and 40 without (median age 75 years; 35.0% women) sarcopenia were included. The non-sarcopenia group had more patients who achieved an FILS gain of ≥2 (75.0%) than the sarcopenia group (51.0%). Sarcopenia was independently associated with a poor FILS gain (odds ratio:0.34, 95% confidence intervals: 0.13-0.86) but not associated with FIM gain or efficiency. This association was not affected by the rehabilitation duration or energy intake. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, sarcopenia was negatively associated with the recovery of swallowing function in stroke patients without interaction by energy intake and rehabilitation duration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition is a relatively common and often unrecognized condition in stroke survivors, which may negatively affect functional recovery and survival. Though previous studies have indicated significant role of nutrition supplement for rehabilitation of patients with stroke, the results still remain controversy. OBJECTIVE The present analysis was designed to systematically review effective evidence of nutrition supplement on rehabilitation for patients with stroke. METHODS A systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science up to August 1, 2021 was performed to find relevant studies that analyzed the effect of nutrition supplement on rehabilitation of patients with stroke. The primary outcome was functional outcomes and activities of daily living (ADL). The secondary outcomes included disability, all-cause mortality, infections, pneumonia, walking ability, stroke recurrence, and laboratory results indicating nutrition status of patients. All statistical analyses were performed using standard statistical procedures with Review Manager 5.2. RESULTS Ultimately, 16 studies including 7547 patients were identified. Our pooled results found no significant difference in total, cognitive and motor FIM score between nutrition supplement and placebo groups, with pooled MDs of 7.64 (95% CI - 1.67 to 16.94; P = .11), 0.74 (95% CI - 1.33 to 2.81; P = .48), 1.11 (95% CI - 1.68 to 3.90; P = .44), respectively. However, our result showed that nutritional interventions had significant effect on ADL for patients with stroke (MD 3.26; 95% CI 0.59 to 5.93; P = .02). In addition, nutrition supplement reduced the incidence of infections for patients with stroke, with a pooled RR of 0.65 (95% CI 0.51 to 0.84; P = .0008). No significant results were found in disabilities, complication and laboratory outcomes. CONCLUSIONS The present meta-analysis indicated no statistically significant effect of nutrition supplement on functional outcomes as well as disabilities, complication and laboratory outcomes for patients with stroke. However, it increased ADL and reduced the incidence of infections.

Relationship between oral hygiene and function and activities of daily living at discharge in convalescent patients with stroke. Jpn J Compr Rehabil Sci 2022; 13: 17-25. Objective This study was designed to examine the relationship between improvement in oral hygiene and function and activities of daily living (ADLs) at discharge in patients admitted to convalescent rehabilitation wards. Methods Eligible criteria were patients with stroke with a score of 13 or higher (i.e., severe oral problems) on the Revised Oral Assessment Guide (ROAG) at admission. Age, gender, primary diseases, rehabilitation dose, dentist visits and denture status, Eichner classification, eating status at admission and discharge, and body mass index at admission were collected. The patients were classified into two groups: those with ROAG scores of less than 9 points at discharge (good ROAG group) and those with scores of 9 points or more (poor ROAG group), and Functional Independence Measure (FIM) gain and total FIM discharge scores were compared using univariate and multivariate analyses. Results The good and poor ROAG groups comprised 126 and 366 patients, respectively. The good ROAG group had significantly higher total FIM score, FIM efficiency, and FIM gain at discharge than the poor ROAG group (112 vs. 82; P < 0.001). The ROAG scores at discharge were independently associated with FIM gain (partial regression coefficient = -9.889, 95% confidence interval = -13.499 to -6.279) and total FIM score at discharge. Conclusion Improvement in oral hygiene and function in convalescent patients with stroke was associated with ADLs at hospital discharge.

Abstract
Background Malnutrition is common after stroke and can affect rehabilitation and healthcare costs. A comprehensive overview of stroke patients' nutritional condition from the hyperacute to the chronic phase is lacking. This systematic review aimed to investigate the prevalence of impaired nutritional condition (INC) across the continuum of care in specific phases after stroke. Methods CAB ABSTRACTS, Embase, MEDLINE, were used to collect studies published between 01-01-1999 and 26-08-2020. Primary and secondary outcomes were prevalence of INC and prevalence of malnutrition, respectively. Exploratory outcomes were prevalence of INC at follow-up, nutritional examination methods, prevalence of dysphagia, stroke severity, adverse events, and continent-specific prevalence of INC. A random-effects meta-analysis model was used to estimate the phase-specific pooled prevalence of INC and malnutrition. Results The dataset consisted of 78 study groups selected over a total of 1,244 identified records. The pooled prevalence of INC and malnutrition were 19% (95%CI:7–31) (N = 4) and 19% (95%CI:9–29) (N = 3), 34% (95%CI:25–43) (N = 34) and 26% (95%CI:18–35) (N = 29), 52% (95%CI:43–61) (N = 34) and 37% (95%CI:28–45) (N = 31), 21% (95%CI:12–31) (N = 3) and 11% (95%CI:0–24) (N = 3) and 72% (95%CI:41–100) (N = 3) and 30% (95%CI:0–76) (N = 2) in the hyperacute, acute, early subacute, late subacute, and chronic phase, respectively. Conclusion INC and malnutrition are highly prevalent in all stages of stroke care. Since malnutrition has been shown to negatively affect clinical outcomes, mortality, and overall healthcare expenditure in stroke survivors, it is essential to examine and monitor the nutritional status of stroke patients throughout their care journey to guide and plan, timely nutritional support and dietary modification.

Prevalence and Associated Factors of Coexistence of Malnutrition and Sarcopenia in Geriatric Rehabilitation. Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13113745. [PMID: 34836001 PMCID: PMC8620459 DOI: 10.3390/nu13113745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2021] [Revised: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 10/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Malnutrition and sarcopenia often coexist in rehabilitation patients, although they are often overlooked and undertreated in clinical practice. This cross-sectional study aimed to clarify the prevalence of the coexistence of malnutrition and sarcopenia (Co-MS) and its associated factors in convalescent rehabilitation wards in Japan. Consecutive patients aged ≥ 65 years in convalescent rehabilitation wards between November 2018 and October 2020 were included. Malnutrition and sarcopenia were determined by the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria and the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS 2019) criteria, respectively. Patients who presented both with malnutrition and sarcopenia were classified as Co-MS. Potentially associated factors included age, sex, days from onset to admission of rehabilitation wards, reason for admission, pre-morbid functional dependency, comorbidity, activities of daily living, swallowing ability, and oral function and hygiene. The prevalence of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and Co-MS was calculated. Binary logistic regression analyses were performed to compute odds ratios (ORs) and the 95% confidence interval (CI) of possible associated factors for each condition. Overall, 601 patients were eligible for the analysis (median 80 years old, 355 female patients, 70% cerebrovascular disease). Co-MS, malnutrition, and sarcopenia were found in 23.5%, 29.0%, and 62.4% of the enrolled patients, respectively. After adjustment, onset–admission interval (OR = 1.04; 95% CI = 1.02 to 1.06), hospital-associated deconditioning (OR = 4.62; 95% CI = 1.13 to 18.8), and swallowing ability (Food Intake LEVEL Scale) (OR = 0.83; 95% CI = 0.73 to 0.93) were identified as independent explanatory factors of Co-MS. In conclusion, Co-MS was prevalent in geriatric rehabilitation patients; thus, healthcare professionals should be aware of the associated factors to detect the geriatric rehabilitation patients who are at risk of both malnutrition and sarcopenia, and to provide appropriate treatments.

Intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps is more strongly related to recovery of swallowing ability than is muscle mass in older inpatients: A prospective study. Nutrition 2021; 91-92:111364. [PMID: 34246889 DOI: 10.1016/j.nut.2021.111364] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2021] [Revised: 05/06/2021] [Accepted: 05/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to examine whether intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps at admission is related to the recovery of swallowing ability during a hospital stay in older inpatients. METHODS This prospective study included 344 inpatients ages ≥ 65 y. Those who had stroke that was the obvious cause of dysphagia were excluded. Recovery of swallowing ability was assessed using Food Intake Level Scale (FILS) score at discharge and FILS change. Ultrasound images were acquired at admission. Intramuscular adipose tissue and muscle mass of the quadriceps were assessed based on echo intensity and muscle thickness, respectively. Multiple regression analysis was performed to examine whether quadriceps echo intensity is independently associated with FILS score at discharge and FILS change. The independent variables were quadriceps echo intensity and thickness, subcutaneous fat thickness of the thigh, Barthel Index score at admission, age, sex, number of medications, C-reactive protein, updated Charlson Comorbidity Index, FILS score at admission, Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index, days from disease onset, length of hospital stay, and units of rehabilitation therapy. RESULTS Quadriceps echo intensity was independently and significantly associated with FILS score at discharge (β = -0.15, P < 0.01) and FILS change (β = -0.19, P < 0.01). Quadriceps thickness was not independently and significantly associated with FILS score at discharge or FILS change. CONCLUSIONS The present study revealed that intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps in older inpatients is more strongly related to recovery of swallowing ability than is muscle mass.

Greater Quadriceps Muscle Mass at Post-Acute Care Admission is Associated with Better Swallowing Ability at Discharge among Adults with Stroke. J Am Med Dir Assoc 2021; 22:2486-2490. [PMID: 34023301 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamda.2021.04.019] [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: 01/27/2021] [Revised: 04/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to examine the relationship between muscle mass and intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps at post-acute care admission and recovery of swallowing ability in patients with stroke. DESIGN Prospective study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS This study was hospital-based and included 62 inpatients with stroke. METHODS The primary outcome was swallowing ability at discharge. The swallowing ability was assessed using the Food Intake Level Scale (FILS). The FILS change was calculated by subtracting FILS at admission from FILS at discharge. Ultrasound images were acquired at admission using B-mode ultrasound imaging. Muscle mass and intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps were assessed based on muscle thickness and echo intensity, respectively. The mean muscle thickness and echo intensity of the right and left quadriceps were used in the analysis. A multiple regression analysis was performed to identify the factors independently associated with the FILS at discharge and FILS change. The independent variables were the muscle thickness and echo intensity of the quadriceps, FILS at admission, age, sex, body mass index, days from stroke onset, C-reactive protein, updated Charlson comorbidity index, number of medications, unit number of rehabilitation therapy, and Barthel Index score at admission. RESULTS Muscle thickness of the quadriceps was significantly and independently associated with FILS at discharge (β = 0.27) and FILS change (β = 0.40). Echo intensity of the quadriceps was not significantly and independently associated with FILS at discharge (β = 0.22) and FILS change (β = 0.31). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Our results indicated that greater quadriceps muscle mass at post-acute care admission was associated with better swallowing ability at discharge in patients with stroke. Assessing muscle mass of the quadriceps at admission is important for predicting recovery of swallowing ability and interventions for quadriceps muscle mass may be effective for improving swallowing ability of patients with stroke.

Nishioka S, Yamanouchi A, Matsushita T, Nishioka E, Mori N, Taguchi S. Validity of calf circumference for estimating skeletal muscle mass for Asian patients after stroke. Nutrition 2020; 82:111028. [PMID: 33139149 DOI: 10.1016/j.nut.2020.111028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2020] [Revised: 08/25/2020] [Accepted: 09/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of this study was to determine the optimal cutoff values of non-paretic calf circumference (CC) that are indicative of low skeletal muscle mass and examine the association between a low CC and rehabilitation outcomes. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study that included 628 patients in convalescent rehabilitation wards in Japan. Patients in post-stroke rehabilitation who were ≥20 y of age were included. We examined the agreement between CC on the non-paretic side and a low skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis. We also confirmed the correlation between sarcopenia defined by CC and handgrip strength, and sarcopenia according to Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS) 2019 criteria. Functional Independent Measure (FIM) at discharge and discharge to home outcomes were compared between patients with a high CC and those with a low CC. RESULTS Of the 628 patients included in the study, 408 (170 women; mean age, 72 y) were analyzed. The optimal cutoff values of CC were 33 cm for men (sensitivity and specificity, 0.798 and 0.840, respectively) and 32 cm for women (0.847 and 0.818, respectively). The sensitivity and specificity of CC-based sarcopenia against the AWGS criteria were 0.752 and 1.000 for men and 0.800 and 1.000 for women, respectively. Patients with a low CC had a significantly lower FIM and proportion of home discharge than those with a high CC. CONCLUSIONS The optimal cutoff values of non-paretic CC for a low SMI were 33 cm for male and 32 cm for female Asian stroke rehabilitation patients. Sarcopenia can be defined using CC instead of SMI.
