Abstract
Both cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD) cause skeletal muscle mass loss, thereby increasing the likelihood of a poor prognosis. We investigated the association between cancer history and physical function and their combined association with prognosis in patients with CVD. We retrospectively reviewed 3,796 patients with CVD (median age: 70 years; interquartile range [IQR]: 61-77 years) who had undergone physical function tests (gait speed and 6-minute walk distance [6MWD]) at discharge. We performed multiple linear regression analyses to assess potential associations between cancer history and physical function. Moreover, Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression analyses were used to evaluate prognostic associations in four groups of patients categorized by the absence or presence of cancer history and of high or low physical function. Multiple regression analyses showed that cancer history was significantly and independently associated with a lower gait speed and 6MWD performance. A total of 610 deaths occurred during the follow-up period (median: 3.1 years; IQR: 1.4-5.4 years). The coexistence of low physical function and cancer history in patients with CVD was associated with a significantly higher mortality risk, even after adjusting for covariates (cancer history/low gait speed, hazard ratio [HR]: 1.93, P < 0.001; and cancer history/low 6MWD, HR: 1.61, P = 0.002). Cancer history is associated with low physical function in patients with CVD, and the combination of both factors is associated with a poor prognosis.

Postoperative sarcopenia increases both gastric cancer and other-cause mortality in older adults undergoing radical gastrectomy for cancer. Clin Nutr ESPEN 2024; 61:63-70. [PMID: 38777474 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnesp.2024.03.015] [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: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 02/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Preoperative sarcopenia in gastric cancer is associated with increased postoperative complications and reduced long-term survival. However, the association between postoperative sarcopenia and long-term outcomes remains unclear. Therefore, this study aims to clarify the association between sarcopenia after gastrectomy for gastric cancer and survival outcomes. METHODS This retrospective study included 1512 patients aged ≥65 who underwent curative gastric resection for clinical stage I-III primary gastric cancer during 2008-2018. Sarcopenia was assessed preoperatively by measuring arm muscle area and grip strength, which was repeated 1 month after surgery. We compared the clinical characteristics, surgical treatments, and long-term outcomes between the postoperative normal and sarcopenia groups. RESULTS Sarcopenia was observed in 173 and 305 patients pre- and postoperatively, respectively. Factors increasing the risk of postoperative sarcopenia included age of ≥75, lower preoperative body mass index, diabetes, and clinical stage II/III gastric cancer. Patients with postoperative sarcopenia after surgery had a significantly lower overall survival rate (hazard ratio [HR] 2.596, p < 0.001). Furthermore, postoperative sarcopenia was linked to decreased overall survival in patients with (HR 2.813, p = 0.002) and without (HR 1.925, p < 0.001) preoperative sarcopenia. Cumulative incidence showed significantly higher rates of deaths due to gastric cancer (HR 1.928, p < 0.001) and other causes (HR 2.736, p < 0.001) in the postoperative sarcopenia group. CONCLUSIONS Postoperative sarcopenia in gastric cancer is linked to an increased risk of death due to cancer and other causes, underscoring the importance of perioperative sarcopenia management strategies.

Abstract
Patients undergoing major surgery for gastrointestinal cancer are at high risk of developing or worsening malnutrition and sarcopenia. In malnourished patients, preoperative nutritional support may not be sufficient and so postoperative support is advised. This narrative review addresses several aspects of postoperative nutritional care in the setting of enhanced recovery programmes. Early oral feeding, therapeutic diet, oral nutritional supplements, immunonutrition, and probiotics are discussed. When postoperative intake is insufficient, nutritional support favouring the enteral route is recommended. Whether this approach should use a nasojejunal tube or jejunostomy is still a matter of debate. In the setting of enhanced recovery programmes with early discharge, nutritional follow-up and care should be continued beyond the short time in hospital. In enhanced recovery programmes, the main specific aspects of nutrition are patient education, early oral intake, and post-discharge care. The other aspects do not differ from conventional care.

Effects of postoperative oral elemental nutritional supplement on skeletal muscle loss after gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Int J Clin Oncol 2024; 29:266-275. [PMID: 38227091 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-023-02462-3] [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: 10/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously showed that daily nutritional intervention with an oral elemental diet (ED) at 300 kcal/day for 6-8 weeks postoperatively decreased the percentage of body weight loss (%BWL), and that the effect was maintained for 1 year. This post hoc analysis aimed to determine whether this intervention decreased skeletal muscle mass loss 1-year post-gastrectomy. METHODS Data from consecutive, untreated patients with histopathologically confirmed stage I-III gastric adenocarcinoma who planned to undergo total gastrectomy (TG) or distal gastrectomy (DG) and were enrolled in a previously published randomized trial were used. The primary endpoint was the percentage of skeletal muscle mass index (%SMI) loss from baseline at 1 year postoperatively, based on abdominal computed tomography images obtained preoperatively and at 1 year postoperatively. RESULTS The overall median %SMI loss was lower in the ED versus control group, but the difference was not significant. The difference in %SMI loss in the ED and control groups was greater in patients with TG (10.1 vs. 13.0; P = 0.12) than in those with DG (5.5 vs. 6.8; P = 0.69). A correlation was observed between %BWL and %SMI loss in both groups (ED group, coefficient 0.591; control group, coefficient 0.644; P < 0.001 for both). Type of gastrectomy (coefficient 7.38; P = 0.001) and disease stage (coefficient - 6.43; P = 0.04) were independent predictors of postoperative skeletal muscle mass loss. CONCLUSION ED administration for 6-8 weeks following gastrectomy had no inhibitory effect on skeletal muscle loss at 1 year postoperatively. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION UMIN000023455.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have demonstrated a prognostic role of sarcopenia (i.e., loss of skeletal muscle volume and functionality) in patients with various cancer types. In patients with biliary tract cancer, the quantity and quality of skeletal muscles and their serial changes have not been fully investigated in relation to survival outcomes. METHODS We identified 386 patients with unresectable or recurrent biliary tract cancer and calculated skeletal muscle index (SMI) and skeletal muscle density (SMD) to estimate muscular quantity and quality, respectively, based on computed tomography images. Using the Cox regression model with adjustment for potential confounders, we calculated hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) according to skeletal muscle status and its serial change. RESULTS Compared to patients without sarcopenia, patients with sarcopenia were associated with shorter PFS (multivariable HR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.15-2.22; P = 0.005), but not with OS (P = 0.027) at the adjusted α level of 0.013. SMD at baseline was associated with OS (multivariable HR comparing the extreme quartiles, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.07-2.14; Ptrend = 0.012), but not with PFS (Ptrend = 0.13). A reduction in SMI rather than that in SMD was associated with OS. Progressive disease was a risk factor for reductions in SMI and SMD. CONCLUSIONS Skeletal muscle quantity and quality and their serial changes were associated with survival outcomes in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer. Our data highlight the importance of designing nutritional and physical interventions for improvements in skeletal muscle status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative skeletal muscle loss (SM loss) was reported to be associated with a poor prognosis in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Small airway dysfunction (SAD) is a common but neglected respiratory abnormality. Little information is known about the association between preoperative SAD and postoperative SM loss in early-stage NSCLC. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the correlation between preoperative SAD and SM loss after surgery in early-stage NSCLC patients. METHODS There were 348 NSCLC patients with stages I-IIIA in this study from January 2017 to December 2020. All CT images were contrast-enhanced scans, and the skeletal muscle index (SMI) was measured using CT images. A 10.0% decrease in SMI over 12 months was determined as the cut-off value to define excessive SM loss. Logistic regression analyses were used to examine the relationship between SAD and SM loss. RESULTS This study included 348 subjects who underwent pulmonary operation (159 males and 189 females; mean age: 57.5 ± 8.8 years). 152 (43.7%) patients were identified as having SAD before surgery, and 179 patients (51.4%) were identified as having SM loss after 1 year. Moreover, a higher incidence of SAD was found in the SM loss group compared with that in the non-SM loss group (52.0% vs. 34.9%, p = 0.001). The patients with SAD were older, had larger tumor size, and had lower albumin levels. Furthermore, there were significant correlations between the lung function parameters manifesting SAD and the percentage change in SMI (for the forced expiratory flow when 75% of forced vital capacity has been exhaled (FEF75%), Pearson r=-0.107, p = 0.046; for FEF50%, r = -0.142, p = 0.008; and for FEF25-75%, r=-0.124, p = 0.021; respectively). However, no significant correlations were found between SMI and the lung function parameters reflecting proximal airway obstruction (p > 0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that preoperative SAD (HR, 2.465; 95% CI, 1.256-4.838; p = 0.009) was independent risk factor for postoperative SM loss in early-stage NSCLC. In addition, multivariable analysis revealed that SAD (HR, 1.816; 95% CI, 1.025-3.216, P = 0.041) were associated with postoperative complications. CONCLUSION Preoperative SAD is significantly associated with postoperative complications and SM loss in early NSCLC patients. Our results suggest that preoperative assessment of SAD may be useful for risk stratification of surgical candidates with potential for targeted interventions.

Abstract
Urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder places a significant burden on the healthcare system in Germany, with 30,000 new cases annually. Radical cystectomy still remains the standard treatment for nonmetastatic, muscle invasive bladder cancer. Radical cystectomy represents the standard uro-oncologic procedure with the highest mortality. Due to the aging population, the number of elderly patients with urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder and reduced physical fitness and numerous comorbidities before the procedure is increasing. Prehabilitation before cystectomy aims to preoperatively identify patients at risk for postoperative complications and improve their physical condition. This includes conditioning and strength training, breathing exercises to improve lung capacity, and nutritional education. Studies on prehabilitation before various abdominal tumor surgeries have shown heterogeneous results so far. Positive effects have been shown for the improvement of functional parameters, but not for a reduction of complications or mortality. Further research, especially in the German healthcare system, is needed to confirm the benefit of prehabilitation, for example, in cystectomy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The nutritional status of patients with gastric cancer (GC) after total gastrectomy continues to deteriorate and lasts a long time after discharge, which is an independent risk factor for mortality. Recent guidelines have recommended appropriate nutritional support after discharge for cancer surgery patients with malnutrition or nutritional risk. The evidence on the efficacy of oral immunonutritional supplement (INS) and its effect on long-term disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with GC is limited. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that oral INS compared to diet alone may improve 3-year DFS of GC patients with pathological stage III after total gastrectomy (Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 score ≥3 at discharge). METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a pragmatic, open-label, multicentre, randomised controlled study. 696 eligible GC patients with pathological stage III after total gastrectomy will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to oral INS group or normal diet group for 6 months. The primary endpoint is 3-year DFS after discharge. The following secondary endpoints will be evaluated: 3-year overall survival; unplanned readmission rate at 3 and 6 months after discharge; quality of life, body mass index and haematological index at 3, 6 and 12 months after discharge; incidence of sarcopenia at 6 and 12 months after discharge; and the tolerance to chemotherapy. The adverse events of oral INS will also be evaluated during the intervention. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study was approved by the ethics committee of Jinling Hospital, Nanjing University (number 2021NZKY-069-01). The present study may validate the effectiveness of oral immunonutritional therapy in improving 3-year DFS for GC patients with pathological stage III after total gastrectomy for the first time. The results of this trial will be disseminated in peer-reviewed journals and at scientific conferences. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT05253716.

[PMID: 37168049 PMCID: PMC10164928 DOI: 10.3389/pore.2023.1611055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
Background: The association between pretreatment skeletal muscle index (SMI) and long-term survival of gastric cancer patients remains unclear up to now. The aim of this meta-analysis was to identify the prognostic value of pretreatment SMI in gastric cancer. Methods: The PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science electronic databases were searched up to 5 June 2022 for relevant studies. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS) and the second outcomes were disease-free survival (DFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). The hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were combined to assess the relationship between pretreatment SMI and survival of gastric cancer patients. All statistical analyses were conducted by STATA 15.0 software. Results: A total of 31 retrospective studies involving 12,434 patients were enrolled in this meta-analysis. The pooled results demonstrated that lower pretreatment was significantly associated with poorer OS (HR = 1.53, p < 0.001). Besides, lower pretreatment SMI was also related with worse DFS (HR = 1.39, p < 0.001) and CSS (HR = 1.96, p < 0.001). Conclusion: Pretreatment SMI was significantly associated with prognosis of gastric cancer patients and lower SMI predicted worse survival. However, more prospective high-quality studies are still needed to verify our findings.

Impact of skeletal muscle loss during conversion therapy on clinical outcomes in lavage cytology positive patients with gastric cancer. Front Oncol 2022; 12:949511. [PMID: 36313681 PMCID: PMC9615921 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.949511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2022] [Accepted: 09/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The relationship between sarcopenia and clinical outcomes during conversion therapy in patients with lavage cytology positive gastric cancer (GC-CY1) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the impact of sarcopenia and skeletal muscle loss on the efficacy of conversion therapy, tumour response and survival in GC-CY1 patients. Methods Retrospective analysis of data from a prospective trial of conversion therapy conducted between April 2018 and August 2019 in patients with GC-CY1 (NCT03718624). Skeletal muscle index (SMI) was measured at the level of the third lumbar (L3) vertebra and the sarcopenia was defined using published cut-off points in all patients. We defined ΔSMI (%)/50 days above 9.53% for men and ΔSMI (%)/50 days above 8.81% for women as significant muscle loss (SML) and analysed the changes in skeletal muscle during conversion therapy in relation to treatment efficacy, survival and tumour response. Results Of the 36 patients, 7 patients (19.44%) developed sarcopenia before conversion therapy, 6 (16.67%) developed new sarcopenia after conversion therapy, and 8 (22.22%) developed SML during treatment. Multivariate analysis showed that sarcopenia before treatment [Odds Ratio (OR) =8.923, 95%CI: 1.341-25.321, p=0.002] and SML during treatment (OR=7.803, 95%CI: 1.106-16.189, p=0.001) had a negative impact on the success rate of conversion therapy. Cox multifactorial analysis found that pre-treatment sarcopenia [overall survival (OS): Hazard Ratio (HR) =6.341, 95%CI: 1.269-18.943, p=0.001; progression-free survival (PFS): HR=8.212, 95%CI: 1.569-36.582, p=0.001], newly developed sarcopenia after conversion therapy (OS: HR=3.189, 95%CI: 1.023-9.811, p=0.012; PFS: HR=3.084, 95%CI: 1.042-14.236, p=0.013) and the presence of SML during treatment (OS: HR=10.234, 95%CI: 2.532-54.231, p=0.002; PFS: HR=9.562, 95%CI: 2.341-38.092, p=0.002) were independent risk factor for OS and PFS in GC-CY1 patients. Conclusion Pre-treatment sarcopenia and the presence of SML during treatment are strongly correlated with the immediate and long-term outcomes of GC-CY1 patients and can be used as imaging markers to predict the treatment efficacy and prognosis of patients in clinical practice.

Prognostic significance of postoperative loss of skeletal muscle mass in patients underwent coronary artery bypass grafting. Front Nutr 2022; 9:970729.

Abstract
Background Increasing life expectancy of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains to be the major concern of cardiac surgeons. However, few studies have investigated the effect of postoperative skeletal muscle index (SMI) loss on prognosis. This study aims to evaluate the prognostic role of postoperative SMI loss ≥ 5% after CABG, in order to develop a novel nomogram to predict overall survival (OS). Methods Patients underwent CABG via midline sternotomy from December 2015 to March 2021 were recruited in this study. Preoperative and postoperative 3 months chest computed tomography (CT) images were compared to assess changes in SMI at T12 level. Based on this, patients were classified into the presence or absence of SMI loss ≥ 5%. The association between postoperative SMI loss ≥ 5% and OS was then analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox model. A novel nomogram incorporating independent clinical prognostic variables was also developed. Results The study enrolled 506 patients receiving CABG, of whom 98 patients experienced T12 SMI loss ≥ 5% and had a significantly worse OS (P < 0.0001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that T12 SMI per cent change (%T12 SMI-change) was an independent prognostic factor for OS (HR = 0.809, 95% CI = 0.749–0.874). The nomogram incorporating %T12 SMI-change with other variables was accurate for predicting OS. Besides, we also found that postoperative oral nutritional supplement (ONS) can rescue T12 SMI loss. Conclusion Postoperative SMI loss can predict survival outcome after CABG. The nomogram incorporating changes in SMI provides a superior performance than existing systems.
