Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Muscle mass, as a reflection thereof, can be objectively measured. However, the role of east-west differences remains unclear. Therefore, we compared the impact of muscle mass on clinical outcomes after liver resection for HCC in a Dutch and Japanese setting and evaluated the predictive performance of different cut-off values for sarcopenia.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

The primary outcome was overall survival (OS), defined as the time in days between the date of resection and the date of death or last follow-up.

Key secondary outcomes

We investigated short-term outcome measures: recurrence free survival (RFS), length of hospital stay, complications with Clavien-Dindo grade (CD) > 2, and 90-day mortality.

Results

The predictive performance of sarcopenia for both short-term and long-term outcomes was higher in JP compared to NL (maximum C-index: 0.58 vs. 0.55, respectively). However, differences between cutoff values were small. For the association between sarcopenia and OS, a strong association was found in JP [hazard ratio (HR) 2.00, 95% CI [1.230-3.08], P =0.002], where this was not found in NL (0.76 [0.42-1.36], P =0.351).

Baseline Characteristics

In this multicenter retrospective cohort study, patients with HCC undergoing liver resection were included.

Participant flow

In this multicenter retrospective cohort study, patients with HCC undergoing liver resection were included.

Adverse events

Demographics differed between NL and JP. Gender, age, and body mass index were associated with SMI. Significant effect modification between NL and JP was found for BMI. The predictive performance of sarcopenia for both short-term and long-term outcomes was higher in JP compared to NL (maximum C-index: 0.58 vs. 0.55, respectively). However, differences between cutoff values were small. For the association between sarcopenia and OS, a strong association was found in JP [hazard ratio (HR) 2.00, 95% CI [1.230-3.08], P =0.002], where this was not found in NL (0.76 [0.42-1.36], P =0.351). The interaction term confirmed that this difference was significant (HR 0.37, 95% CI [0.19-0.73], P =0.005).

Outcome measures

The skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) was determined on computed tomography scans obtained within 3 months before surgery. The primary outcome measure was overall survival (OS). Secondary outcome measures were: 90-day mortality, severe complications, length of stay, and recurrence-free survival. The predictive performance of several sarcopenia cutoff values was studied using the concordance index (C-index) and area under the curve. Interaction terms were used to study the geographic effect modification of muscle mass.
