Description
Nadine Abdallah and co-authors measure muscle and fat on scans of patients newly diagnosed with a blood cancer of the bone marrow. Their paper from 2023 deals with multiple myeloma. Past work on body make up and survival in other cancers is rich, but results in this cancer have been mixed.
The study held 341 patients diagnosed from 2010 to 2019 who had a full body scan at diagnosis. A slice at the third lower back bone was split into muscle and fat zones. Being low on muscle alone showed no link to survival. Low muscle density did go with higher stage and worse survival, at about five and a half years versus nine. High fat density also went with worse marks.
