Image-based assessment of sarcopenic obesity predicts mortality in major trauma
JS Oh, AE Ssentongo, P Ssentongo, T Dykes… - The American Journal of …, 2022 - Elsevier
Background Patients with obesity are also at risk for sarcopenia, which is difficult to
recognize in this population. Our study examines whether sarcopenic-obesity (SO) is
independently associated with mortality in trauma. Methods Using a retrospective database,
we performed logistic regression analysis.. Admission CT scans were used to identify SO by
calculating the visceral fat to skeletal muscle ratio> 3.2. Results Of 883 patients, the
prevalence of SO was 38%(333). Patients with SO were more likely to be male (79% versus …
