The study compared the measurement of skeletal muscle mass in elderly heart failure patients using BIA and DEXA, finding significant discordance in defining low MM. DEXA-defined low MM provided additional prognostic value, predicting poor outcomes in these patients.
Aim This study aimed to compare bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) in measuring skeletal muscle mass (MM), and its prognostic implications in old patients with heart failure. Methods We prospectively evaluated MM measured by both BIA and DEXA in 226 hospitalized elderly (>= 65 years) patients with heart failure. The cut-off values proposed by the Asian Working Group in Sarcopenia were used to define low MM. The prognostic endpoint was all-cause death. Results The median age of the cohort was 82 years (interquartile range: 75-87), and 51.8% of patients were men. According to the BIA and DEXA, 177 (78.3%) and 120 (53.1%) patients were diagnosed with low MM, respectively, and the two assessment tools showed poor agreement (Cohen's kappa coefficient: 0.294). During the follow-up, 32 patients (14.2%) died; only low MM defined by DEXA (hazard ratio 2.45, 95% confidence interval 1.05-5.72, P = 0.039), but not BIA (hazard ratio 1.03, 95% confidence interval 0.35-3.06, P = 0.955), was associated with poor prognosis after adjusting for pre-existing risk factors. Moreover, low MM defined by DEXA (net reclassification improvement: 0.58, P < 0.001), but not BIA (net reclassification improvement: -0.005, P = 0.975), provides incremental prognostic predictability when considered with pre-existing risk factors and brain natriuretic peptide level at discharge. Conclusions In elderly hospitalized patients with heart failure, low MM defined by DEXA and BIA show significant discordance. The MM defined by DEXA, but not BIA, provides additional prognostic value to pre-existing prognostic models.
