Objectives To analyze the effect of preoperative body composition on survival in patients
with pancreatic cancer following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Methods Between October …

Objective To determine whether sarcopenia can potentially predict worse survival after
resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Background Sarcopenia is correlated with …

Objectives To investigate the impact of the body composition such as skeletal muscle,
visceral fat and body mass index (BMI) on patients with resected pancreatic ductal …

Background Sarcopenia and post‐operative accelerated muscle loss leading to cachexia
are commonly observed in patients with pancreatic cancer. This study aimed to assess the …

Background The changes in body composition that occur in response to therapy for
localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and during the early survivorship …

Purposes Sarcopenia is known to be associated with a worse prognosis following
abdominal operations; however, the relationship between sarcopenia and the outcomes of …

Objective Complication rates after pancreatic resections remain high despite improvement in
perioperative management. The effects of body composition and the relationship among …

Background Recently, several studies have reported that sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity
(SO) could worsen postoperative complications after PD. This study aims to evaluate the …

Background and Objectives Sarcopenia, which is subclinical loss of skeletal muscle mass, is
commonly observed in patients with malignancy. The objective of this study is to determine …

Background Visceral fat accumulation and muscle depletion have been identified as poor
prognostic factors for various cancers. However, the significance of visceral adiposity and …
