Model-Based Patterns of Lymphedema Symptomatology: Phenotypic and Biomarker Characterization

Mei R. Fu et al.

Summary: The study aimed to identify lymphedema symptom patterns and their association with phenotypic characteristics and biomarkers using latent class analysis (LCA). Three distinct lymphedema symptom classes were identified at 8 weeks and 12 months post-surgery, with participants more likely to be in the severe symptom classes at 12 months post-surgery if they had specific phenotypic characteristics and biomarker levels. Pre-surgery levels of IL1-a, IL-6, IL-8, and VEGF were associated with the severe symptom class at 8 weeks post-surgery, suggesting predictive value for lymphedema symptoms.
