Sarcopenic obesity in patients with head and neck cancer is predictive of critical weight loss during radiotherapy.

The impact of computed tomography-defined sarcopenia on outcomes in head and neck cancer has been well described. Sarcopenic obesity (SO) (depleted muscle mass combined with obesity) may pose a more serious risk than either condition alone. We investigated SO and...

Association between metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease and myosteatosis measured by computed tomography.

In 2023, the concept of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) was introduced as an alternative to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We aimed to assess the quantity and quality of skeletal muscle using each of these diagnostic classifications. This...

Reduced temporal muscle thickness predicts shorter survival in patients undergoing chronic subdural haematoma drainage.

Chronic subdural haematoma (CSDH) drainage is a common neurosurgical procedure. CSDHs cause excess mortality, which is exacerbated by frailty. Sarcopenia contributes to frailty - its key component, low muscle mass, can be assessed using cross-sectional imaging. We aimed to examine...

Association of computed tomography-derived muscle mass and quality with delayed acquisition independent walking after cardiovascular surgery.

In the context of cardiovascular surgery, the foremost concern lies in delayed functional recovery, as typified by the acquisition of independent walking after surgery, among older patients with decline in skeletal muscle mass and quality. Computed tomography (CT), which is...
