Abstract

Introduction

Frailty is associated with mortality and functional outcome after cardiac arrest. Temporalis muscle thickness (TMT) a measure of sarcopenia, which represents one dimension frailty. We assessed the correlation between TMT, measured on head computed tomography (CT), Clinical Scale (CFS) in patients resuscitated from

Methods

enrolled adults arrest who had CT obtained within 48 hours collapse. Study investigators prospectively data to determine pre-arrest CFS blinded TMT. calculated Spearman rank-order assess relationship TMT CFS. also performed multivariable regression adjusting for confounders frailty sarcopenia.

Results

50 subjects median 4 [IQR 2-6] 6.6 5.0-8.9] mm. There was moderate, negative (ρ = -0.52 (p < 0.001)). In linear regression, (R2 25%) explained more variance than age 17%).

Conclusions

found that exhibits moderate CFS, supporting as tool Measuring early CTs resuscitation may allow characterization sarcopenia

The impact of GH/IGF-1 levels on skeletal muscle in acromegaly is still controversial. Temporal (TMT) and masseter (MMT) thickness has been recently demonstrated as a reliable measure mass. We aimed to investigate the relationship between TMT, MMT clinical/biochemical characteristics patients with acromegaly.
