Summary:
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a dismal disease with a 5-year survival rate
as low as 6%. It causes body composition changes and many patients develop muscle loss
with disease progression. Computed tomography (CT) is a common, noninvasive method of
muscle assessment.Known as myoesteatosis,low muscle radiodensity is reflective of
intermuscular adipose tissue that influences survival outcomes in patients with
cancer.Serum creatinine (Scr) and cystatin C (CysC) are usually employed to estimate
renal function in clinical practice. Scr is a metabolic waste product produced by
creatine in skeletal muscle. CysC can be produced by all nucleated cells in the body at a
constant production rate. CysC is used as an endogenous marker to reflect the glomerular
filtration rate. Some studies have supported that the Scr/CysC ratio (CCR) is a simple
and inexpensive measure that can be used to evaluate the skeletal muscle mass of patients
with malignancies, such as gastric cancer. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is
to explore the association between CCR and myosteatosis upon diagnosis of PDAC, specially
whether the co-occurrence of these factors could predict survival outcomes.Preoperative
assessment of muscle quality may be valuable for treatment planning and optimization of
nutritional support.
This retrospective study enrolls patients who underwent surgery for PDAC, from January
2016 to December 2021. Patients will be divided into myosteatosis and non-myosteatosis
groups. Clinical and imaging data are collected.The study does not have any intervention
measures and harm to subjects.
