Sarcopenia prognosis using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and prediction model in older patients with heart failure. ESC Heart Fail 2024; 11:914-922. [PMID: 38212896 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14667] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2023] [Revised: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to determine whether there is a difference in the prognostic value of sarcopenia diagnosed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and that predicted by prediction equations in older patients with heart failure (HF). METHODS AND RESULTS We included 269 patients (aged ≥65 years) who were hospitalized for HF. We used two appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) prediction equations: (i) Anthropometric-ASM, including age, sex, height, and weight, and (ii) Predicted-ASM, including sex, weight, calf circumference, and mid-arm circumference. ASM index (ASMI) was calculated by dividing the sum of the ASM in the extremities by the height squared (kg/m2). The cut-off values proposed by the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019 were used to define low ASMI. The prognostic endpoint was all-cause mortality. The median age of the cohort was 83 years [interquartile range (IQR): 75-87], and 135 patients (50.2%) were men. Sarcopenia diagnosed according to DEXA, Anthropometric measurements, and Predicted-ASM was observed in 134 (49.8%), 171 (63.6%), and 157 (58.4%) patients, respectively. During the median follow-up period of 690 days (IQR: 459-730), 54 patients (19.9%) died. DEXA-sarcopenia [hazard ratio (HR), 2.33; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.26-4.31; P = 0.007] was associated with all-cause mortality after adjusting for pre-existing risk factors, whereas Predicted-sarcopenia (HR, 1.68; 95% CI, 0.87-3.25; P = 0.123) and Anthropometric-sarcopenia (HR, 1.64; 95% CI, 0.86-3.12; P = 0.132) were not. CONCLUSIONS Sarcopenia diagnosed using DEXA was associated with poor prognosis in older patients with HF; however, the prediction equations were not.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activation is a proposed mechanism of muscle wasting (MW i.e., reduction in muscle mass). Although we reported that RAS inhibitors (RASIs) were associated with lower prevalence of MW in heart failure (HF) patients, the relationship between mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) signaling and MW has not been analyzed.Methods and Results: We analyzed data from 320 consecutive Japanese HF patients who underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scanning for assessment of appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI). In multiple linear regression analyses, plasma renin activity (PRA) was negatively correlated with ASMI in patients not receiving RASIs, indicating an untoward role of the RAS in MW. Results of analysis of covariance in which risk factors of MW served as covariates showed that use of MR antagonists (MRAs) was associated with lower ASMI and higher PRA in the non-RASIs group. The close relationship between use of MRAs and lower ASMI or higher PRA in the non-RASIs group was confirmed in analyses in which the differences in baseline characteristics between users and non-users of MRAs were minimized by using an inverse probability of treatment weighting. CONCLUSIONS Increased PRA by MR inhibition without concurrent RAS inhibition, possibly contributing to upregulation of angiotensin II signaling, may be associated with reduction in muscle mass.

Abstract
CONTEXT Reduced muscle mass is linked to poor outcomes in both inpatients and outpatients, highlighting the importance of muscle mass assessment in clinical practice. However, laboratory methods to assess muscle mass are not yet feasible for routine use in clinical practice because of limited availability and high costs. OBJECTIVE This work aims to review the literature on muscle mass prediction by anthropometric equations in adults or older people. DATA SOURCES The following databases were searched for observational studies published until June 2022: MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, SPORTDiscus, and Web of Science. DATA EXTRACTION Of 6437 articles initially identified, 63 met the inclusion criteria for this review. Four independent reviewers, working in pairs, selected and extracted data from those articles. DATA ANALYSIS Two studies reported new equations for prediction of skeletal muscle mass: 10 equations for free-fat mass and lean soft tissue, 22 for appendicular lean mass, 7 for upper-body muscle mass, and 7 for lower-body muscle mass. Twenty-one studies validated previously proposed equations. This systematic review shows there are numerous equations in the literature for muscle mass prediction, and most are validated for healthy adults. However, many equations were not always accurate and validated in all groups, especially people with obesity, undernourished people, and older people. Moreover, in some studies, it was unclear if fat-free mass or lean soft tissue had been assessed because of an imprecise description of muscle mass terminology. CONCLUSION This systematic review identified several feasible, practical, and low-cost equations for muscle mass prediction, some of which have excellent accuracy in healthy adults, older people, women, and athletes. Malnourished individuals and people with obesity were understudied in the literature, as were older people, for whom there are only equations for appendicular lean mass. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO registration number CRD42021257200.

Abstract
AIMS Previous studies have shown a significant reduction in skeletal muscle content in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). The present study focused on the erector spinae muscle (ESM) to determine whether ESM content is associated with the development and severity of CHF. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 652 patients were included in this trial for the study. According to the diagnostic criteria of CHF, 652 patients were divided into two groups, namely, the control group (268 patients) and the CHF group (384 patients). Meanwhile, to assess whether the ESM is associated with the severity of CHF, patients in the CHF group were divided into two groups according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) values: heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF, LVEF ≥50%, 256 patients) and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF, LVEF ≤40%, 68 patients). Receiver operating curve analysis was performed to assess whether ESM content could predict CHF and determine its severity. Compared with the control group, the patients in the CHF group were older, the prevalence of coronary heart disease (CHD) and atrial fibrillation was higher, the colour ultrasound results showed that LVEF decreased significantly, and the left ventricular end-diastolic internal diameter and left ventricular end-systolic internal diameter increased significantly. Besides, patients in the CHF group had significantly lower ESM content, and ESM is an independent predictor of heart failure, with an odds ratio of 0.713 (CHF group vs. control group, 95% confidence interval 0.626-0.811, P < 0.001). Compared with the HFpEF group, the HFrEF group has a lower prevalence of CHD, LVEF decreased significantly, the left ventricular end-diastolic internal diameter and left ventricular end-systolic internal diameter increased significantly, also patients in the HFrEF group had significantly lower ESM content compared with patients in the HFpEF group, and ESM is an independent predictor of the severity of heart failure, with an odds ratio of 0.514 (HFrEF group vs. HFpEF group, 95% confidence interval (0.418-0.633, P < 0.05). The results of receiver operating curve analysis showed that the sensitivity and specificity of ESM content for the diagnosis of CHF were 65.6% and 71.6%, respectively, while the sensitivity and specificity of ESM content for predicting the severity of CHF were 47.1% and 89.1%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The ESM is of great value in predicting the onset and severity of CHF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Heart failure with concomitant sarcopenia has a poor prognosis; therefore, simple methods for evaluating the appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) are required. Recently, a model incorporating anthropometric data and the sarcopenia index (i.e., serum creatinine-to-cystatin C ratio [Cre/CysC]), was developed to estimate the ASMI. We hypothesized that this model was superior to the traditional model, which uses only anthropometric data to predict prognosis. This retrospective cohort study compared the prognostic value of low ASMI as defined by the biomarker and anthropometric models in patients with heart failure. METHODS AND RESULTS Among 847 patients, we estimated ASMI using an anthropometric model (incorporating age, body weight, and height) in 791 patients and a biomarker model (incorporating age, body weight, hemoglobin, and Cre/CysC) in 562 patients. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Overall, 53.4% and 39.1% of patients were diagnosed with low ASMI (using the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia cut-off) by the anthropometric and biomarker models, respectively. The two models showed a poor agreement in the diagnosis of low ASMI (kappa: 0.57, 95% confidence interval: 0.50-0.63). Kaplan-Meier curves showed that a low ASMI was significantly associated with all-cause death in both models. However, this association was retained after adjustment for other covariates in the biomarker model (hazard ratio: 2.32, p = 0.001) but not in the anthropometric model (hazard ratio: 0.79, p = 0.360). CONCLUSION Among patients hospitalized with heart failure, a low ASMI estimated using the biomarker model, and not the anthropometric model, was significantly associated with all-cause mortality.

Anthropometric equations to estimate appendicular muscle mass from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA): A scoping review. Arch Gerontol Geriatr 2023; 110:104972.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) obtained from dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is recommended to quantify sarcopenia, but has limited availability in disadvantaged-income countries, moreover in an epidemiological context. Predictive equations are easier and less costly to apply, but a review of all available models is still lacking in the scientific literature. The objective of this work is to map, with a scoping review, the different proposed anthropometric equations to predict ASM measured by DXA. METHODS Six databases were searched without restriction on publication date, idiom, and study type. A total of 2,958 studies were found, of which 39 were included. Eligibility criteria involved ASM measured by DXA, and equations proposed to predict ASM. RESULTS predictive equations (n = 122) were gathered for 18 countries. The development phase involves sample size, coefficient of determination (r2), and a standard error of estimative (SEE) varying between 15 and 15,239 persons, 0.39 and 0.98, 0.07 and 3.38 kg, respectively. The validation phase involves a sample size, accuracy, and a SEE between 15 and 3,003 persons, 0.61 and 0.98, 0.09 and 3.65 kg, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The different proposed predictive anthropometric equations of ASM DXA were mapped, including validated pre-existing equations, offering an easy-to-use referential article for clinical and research applications. It is necessary to propose more equations for other continents (Africa and Antarctica) and specific health-related conditions (e.g., diseases), once the equations can only have sufficient validity and accuracy to predict ASM generally when applied to the same population.

Anthropometric parameters-derived estimation of muscle mass predicts all-cause mortality in heart failure patients. ESC Heart Fail 2022; 9:4358-4365. [PMID: 36065759 PMCID: PMC9773643 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2022] [Revised: 07/23/2022] [Accepted: 08/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS Reduction in appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) has been shown to be independently associated with a higher mortality rate in patients with heart failure (HF). However, DEXA is not suitable for measurement of muscle mass in a daily clinical setting and in large population-based studies. The aim of this study was to determine whether ASMI predicted from anthropometric indicators (predicted ASMI) serves as an alternative to DEXA-measured ASMI for predicting all-cause death in HF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS Data for 539 HF patients who received a DEXA scan and measurements of calf circumferences (CC) and mid-arm circumferences (MAC) in our hospital were analysed. Predicted ASMI was calculated as we previously reported: predicted ASMI (kg/m2 ) = [0.214 × weight (kg) + 0.217 × CC (cm) - 0.189 × MAC (cm) + 1.098 (male = 1, female = -1) + 0.576]/height2 (m2 ). Low ASMI values were defined as <7.00 kg/m2 and <5.40 kg/m2 for men and women, respectively, according to the criteria of the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia. The median follow-up period was 1.75 years (interquartile range, 0.96-2.37 years), and 79 patients (15%) died. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that patients with low DEXA-measured ASMI and patients with low predicted ASMI had significantly lower survival rates than those for patients with high ASMI. In multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses adjusted for age, sex, logarithmic B-type natriuretic peptide, cystatin C based-estimated glomerular filtration rate, and gait speed, DEXA-measured ASMI [hazard ratio (HR), 0.982; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.967-0.998; P = 0.026] and predicted ASMI (HR, 0.979; 95% CI, 0.962-0.996; P = 0.018) were independent predictors of all-cause mortality. Inclusion of predicted ASMI into the adjustment model significantly improved continuous net reclassification improvement (0.338; 95% CI, 0.103-0.572; P < 0.01) and integrated discrimination improvement (0.020; 95% CI, 0.004-0.035; P < 0.05) for predicting mortality after discharge. CONCLUSIONS Predicted ASMI, as well as DEXA-measured ASMI, can predict all-cause death in HF patients, and calculation of predicted ASMI will be useful for detecting high-risk patients in a daily clinical setting and in large population-based studies.

Abstract
Background Although high body mass index (BMI) is a risk factor of heart failure (HF), HF patients with a higher BMI had a lower mortality rate than that in HF patients with normal or lower BMI, a phenomenon that has been termed the “obesity paradox”. However, the relationship between body composition, i.e., fat or muscle mass, and clinical outcome in HF remains unclear. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data for 198 consecutive HF patients (76 years of age; males, 49%). Patients who were admitted to our institute for diagnosis and management of HF and received a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan were included regardless of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) categories. Muscle wasting was defined as appendicular skeletal muscle mass index < 7.0 kg/m2 in males and < 5.4 kg/m2 in females. Increased percent body fat mass (increased FM) was defined as percent body fat > 25% in males and > 30% in females. Results The median age of the patients was 76 years (interquartile range [IQR], 67–82 years) and 49% of them were male. The median LVEF was 47% (IQR, 33–63%) and 33% of the patients had heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Increased FM and muscle wasting were observed in 58 and 67% of the enrolled patients, respectively. During a 180-day follow-up period, 32 patients (16%) had cardiac events defined as cardiac death or readmission by worsening HF or arrhythmia. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that patients with increased FM had a lower cardiac event rate than did patients without increased FM (11.4% vs. 22.6%, p = 0.03). Kaplan-Meier curves of cardiac event rates did not differ between patients with and those without muscle wasting (16.5% vs. 15.4%, p = 0.93). In multivariate Cox regression analyses, increased FM was independently associated with lower cardiac event rates (hazard ratio: 0.45, 95% confidence interval: 0.22–0.93) after adjustment for age, sex, diabetes, muscle wasting, and renal function. Conclusions High percent body fat mass is associated with lower risk of short-term cardiac events in HF patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Muscle wasting, that is, reduction in muscle mass, is frequently observed in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and diabetes mellitus (DM). METHODS We retrospectively examined 185 patients with CHF (median age of 71 years [interquartile range, 61-78 years]; 64% male) who received a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan for assessment of appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI). RESULTS Seventy patients with CHF (38%) had DM. Patients with DM had higher prevalences of ischemic heart disease and hypertension, lower levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and ASMI, and higher levels of plasma renin activity (PRA) than did patients without DM. In simple regression analyses, ASMI was positively correlated with the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form (MNA-SF) score and levels of hemoglobin, eGFR, and fasting plasma insulin and was negatively correlated with levels of N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide, PRA, and cortisol. In multiple linear regression analyses, age, MNA-SF score, DM, fasting plasma insulin level, and PRA were independently associated with ASMI. When multiple linear regression analyses were separately performed in a non-DM group and a DM group, MNA-SF score and fasting plasma insulin level were independent variables for ASMI in both groups. PRA was independently associated with ASMI in the DM group but not in the non-DM group, whereas cortisol concentration was independently associated with ASMI only in the non-DM group. CONCLUSIONS In addition to malnutrition and reduction in plasma insulin, renin-angiotensin system activation may be responsible for the development of muscle wasting in CHF patients with DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical significance of osteoporosis in chronic heart failure (CHF) remains unclear.Methods and Results:A total of 303 CHF patients (75 years, [interquartile range (IQR) 66-82 years]; 41% female) were retrospectively examined. Bone mineral densities (BMDs) at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total femur were measured by using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), and osteoporosis was diagnosed when the BMD at any of the 3 sites was <70% of the Young Adult Mean percentage (%YAM). The prevalence of osteoporosis in CHF patients was 40%. Patients with osteoporosis were older (79 [IQR, 74-86] vs. 72 [IQR, 62-80] years), included a large percentage of females, had slower gait speed and had a lower body mass index. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that sex, BMI, gait speed, loop diuretics use and no use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) were independently associated with osteoporosis. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that the rate of death and heart failure hospitalization was higher in patients with osteoporotic BMD at 2 or 3 sites than in patients without osteoporosis (hazard ratio 3.45, P<0.01). In multivariate Cox regression analyses, osteoporotic BMD at 2 or 3 sites was an independent predictor of adverse events after adjustment for prognostic markers. CONCLUSIONS Loop diuretics use and no DOACs use are independently associated with osteoporosis in CHF patients. Osteoporosis is a novel predictor of worse outcome in patients with CHF.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to develop appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) estimating formulas that also consider the presence of paralysis for older adults and people with disabilities. METHODS This retrospective study analyzed 315 consecutive patients, post-stroke, aged ≥65 years, in a rehabilitation hospital. Six different ASM estimating formulas were developed using a five-fold cross-validation method and compared with the measured ASM obtained from bioelectrical impedance analysis. These formulas included age, gender, height, weight, arm circumference, triceps skinfold, calf circumference and presence of paralysis. Using Pearson's correlation coefficients (r) and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), we examined the correlation between the formulas and the measured ASM. The accuracy of the ASM estimating formula for detecting decreased muscle mass was evaluated using the F-value and Matthew's correlation coefficient. RESULTS Patients' mean ± SD age was 79.0 ± 8.1 years, and 51.4% of them were men. The mean ± SD bioelectrical impedance analysis-measured ASM was 13.7 ± 4.3 kg. Furthermore, 241 (76.5%) patients had decreased measured ASM. The mean adjusted R2 of the developed six formulas was 0.861-0.871. In all formulas, the r and ICC of the estimated ASM for the measured ASM were strong (r = 0.936-0.930 and ICC = 0.928-0.934). These formulas revealed excellent sensitivity (86.0-88.2%), specificity (72.5-81.1%), accuracy (0.838-0.870), F-value (0.899-0.918) and Matthew's correlation coefficient (0.509-0.612) for measured ASM depletion. CONCLUSIONS We successfully developed ASM estimating formulas using anthropometric measurements considering the presence of paralysis. Thus, these formulas are beneficial for diagnosing sarcopenia in older adults, without requiring any special equipment. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2020; 20: 1145-1150.

Abstract
AIMS A high prevalence of muscle wasting, that is, reduction in muscle mass, in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) and heart failure (HF) has been reported. However, whether the association between PAD and muscle wasting is independent of shared risk factors such as diabetes mellitus has not been examined. METHODS AND RESULTS We retrospectively enrolled 440 HF patients (mean age, 74 years; inter-quartile range, 64-82 years; 52% male). Muscle wasting was defined as an appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) of <7.0 kg/m2 in men and <5.4 kg/m2 in women. PAD was defined as an ankle brachial index (ABI) of <0.9 in either leg. The prevalence of PAD in HF patients was 21%. ASMI was positively correlated with ABI in HF patients. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, ASMI and muscle wasting were selected as independent explanatory factors of the presence of PAD after adjustment for age, sex, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and smoking status, established risk factors of atherosclerosis. In propensity score-matched analysis, frequency of muscle wasting was higher in patients with PAD than in patients with an ABI of ≧1.1 (72.1% vs. 52.5%, P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that there is an independent link between PAD and muscle wasting in HF patients.

Abstract
AIMS Creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcre) has been shown to overestimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) when it is compared with cystatin C-based estimated GFR (eGFRcys) in older people. We investigated clinical determinants of GFR overestimation by eGFRcre and developed a score for prediction of GFR overestimation (OE) in heart failure patients. METHODS We retrospectively examined 244 Japanese heart failure patients (aged 72.2 ± 13.1 years; 48% women) who had no known extrarenal factors that affect serum cystatin C concentration. eGFR OE by eGFRcre was defined as eGFRcre being ≥120% of cystatin C-based eGFR. RESULTS The proportion of heart failure patients with OE was 14.3%. Patients with OE were older, had lower body weight and total skeletal muscle mass than those in patients without OE. Laboratory examinations showed that hemoglobin concentration was lower, and the ratio of blood urea nitrogen-to-creatinine was higher in patients with OE than in patients without OE. In multivariate regression analysis, body weight (<63.0 kg in men and <42.0 kg in women), hemoglobin level (<12.4 g/dL in men and <11.0 g/dL in women) and ratio of blood urea nitrogen-to-creatinine (>26.5) in addition to skeletal muscle mass were independently associated with OE. A score calculated by using cut-off levels of body weight, hemoglobin concentration and ratio of blood urea nitrogen-to-creatinine predicted OE with a sensitivity of 97.1% and a specificity of 98.1%. CONCLUSION Overestimation of GFR by eGFRcre is predictable by a novel scoring system, which might be useful for the detection of patients who require cystatin C-based eGFR measurement for accurate assessment of renal function.
