Skeletal Muscle Quality Beyond Average Muscle Attenuation: A Proposal of Skeletal Muscle Phenotypes to Predict Short-Term Survival in Patients With Endometrial Cancer.

Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network : JNCCN - 1 Feb 2018

Rodrigues Camila Santos, Chaves Gabriela Villaça

Abstract excerpt

Background: Increasing evidence links sarcopenia and cancer prognosis, but limited data have focused on whether and to what extent muscle radiodensity can impact cancer outcomes. This study was conducted to investigate whether skeletal muscle mass, when divided into subranges of low or high radiodensity, improves prediction of short-term survival in patients with endometrial cancer (EC). Four skeletal muscle...
