“…In our study, the SCI-E database was used to obtain information on publications on the relationship between The relationship between sarcopenia and surgery was still a concern and discussed topic in recent years due to the significant roles played by sarcopenia in surgical procedures, as well as the prognosis after surgeries (24,25). A study that enrolled 480 older patients with gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary pancreatic tumors showed that patients with poor muscle strength may have poor outcomes after their first resection surgeries (26). Similarly, a study conducted in South Korea showed a similar conclusion: among the patients with resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, those with sarcopenia may have lower overall survival and recurrencefree survival after surgery than the patients without sarcopenia (27).…”

BackgroundThe relationship between sarcopenia and surgery has attracted an increasing number of researchers in recent years. Our study aimed to identify the current research hotspot and status in this field by using bibliometric and visualization analysis.MethodsPublications about the relationship between sarcopenia and surgery that met the inclusion criteria were collected from the Science Citation Index Expanded. The bibliometric and visualized studies were performed using VOSviewer, and R.ResultsA total of 2,261 documents on the relationship between sarcopenia and surgery were included in our study. These articles were written by 13,757 authors from 2,703 institutions in 70 countries and were published in 772 journals. The USA is the most productive and influential country in this field (524 publications and 15,220 citations). The Udice French Research Universities was the most productive institution in this field (57 publications), and the University of Alberta had the largest number of citations. Annuals of Surgical Oncology published the most studies in this field. Shen Xian was the most productive author in this field (number of publications = 19), and Baracos Vickie was the most influential author, whose studies in this field had been cited 2,209 times. The cluster analysis was performed and visualized, and the keywords were classified into 6 clusters: Cluster 1 (body composition and nutrition), Cluster 2 (sarcopenia), Cluster 3 (malnutrition and cachexia), Cluster 4 (cancer surgery), Cluster 5 (elderly and frailty), Cluster 6 (neuromuscular scoliosis).ConclusionThe relationship between sarcopenia and surgery was still a controversial and well-discussed topic in recent years. Our study showed that the study in this field mainly focused on sarcopenia, oncology surgery, orthopedics, and nutrition.

“…20,21 The diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia in Asia and Japan require not only skeletal muscle area but also muscle weakness. [23][24][25] Reduced muscle mass and strength is associated with adverse outcomes such as longterm survival after surgery for HCC and gastric cancer, 30,31 and using physical functions such as handgrip strength is important and allows for more accurate prediction of poor prognosis populations. Nishikawa et al reported that reduced handgrip strength, rather than loss of muscle mass, is independently associated with an elevated risk of mortality in chronic liver diseases.…”

AimA recent study reported the utility of the malnutrition defined the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria in many types of cancers and chronic inflammatory disease. The present retrospective study aimed to investigate the significance of the malnutrition defined with GLIM criteria in patients with hepatic resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and also to compare the malnutrition using hand grip strength.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed data from 174 patients who had undergone curative hepatic resection for HCC including both skeletal muscle area and hand grip strength. Patients were divided to malnutrition defined by GLIM or modified GLIM and clinicopathological and short‐ and long‐term outcomes were analyzed. The modified GLIM criteria was defined using both hand grip strength and skeletal muscle area.ResultsThe malnutrition defined by GLIM criteria were 47 patients (26.7%) and malnutrition defined by modified GLIM criteria were 21 patients (11.9%). The malnutrition defined by GLIM or modified GLIM criteria were both associated with poorer liver function and malignant tumor behavior, but modified GLIM criteria predicted the postoperative complication and recurrence‐free survival outcome independently. In patients with poor liver function, malnutrition defined by modified GLIM criteria predicted postoperative complication and overall and recurrence‐free survival.ConclusionsThe malnutrition defined by modified GLIM criteria using both hand grip strength and skeletal muscle area can predict more accurately the short‐term and long‐term outcome compared to malnutrition defined by the GLIM criteria. Nutritional and exercise therapy may become more important in patients with malnutrition and poor liver function.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
