METHODS: A retrospective analysis of a prospective clinical registry of COVID-19 patients was performed in consecutive hospitalized patients with acute COVID-19 (n = 95) and compared with non-COVID-19 controls (n = 19) with two temporally unique CT scans. Pectoralis muscle …

Predictive Value of CT Biomarkers in Lung Transplantation Survival: Preliminary Investigation in a Diverse, Underserved, Urban Population.
Friedman RS, Tarasova A, Jain VR, Ye K, Mansour A, Haramati LB. Friedman RS, et al. Lung. 2023 Dec;201(6):581-590. doi: 10.1007/s00408-023-00650-6. Epub 2023 Nov 2. Lung. 2023. PMID: 37917190
Kaplan-Meier curves did not follow the proportional hazard assumption for sex, so analysis was stratified. Pre-transplant EMR metrics did not predict survival. Women without sarcopenia at erector spinae or pectoralis had 100% survival (p = 0.007). Sarcopenia did not …

Impact of Pectoral Muscle Values on Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Severe Covid-19 Disease.
Kardas H, Thormann M, Bär C, Omari J, Wienke A, Pech M, Surov A. Kardas H, et al. In Vivo. 2022 Jan-Feb;36(1):375-380. doi: 10.21873/invivo.12713. In Vivo. 2022. PMID: 34972737 Free PMC article.
We aimed to assess the influence of baseline computed tomography (CT)-based body composition parameters (pectoralis muscle area, pectoralis muscle index, skeletal muscle gauge) on clinical variables in patients with severe Covid-19 disease. ...CONCLUSION: Pectora …

Lower Pectoralis Muscle Area Is Associated with a Worse Overall Survival in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
Kinsey CM, San José Estépar R, van der Velden J, Cole BF, Christiani DC, Washko GR. Kinsey CM, et al. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 2017 Jan;26(1):38-43. doi: 10.1158/1055-9965.EPI-15-1067. Epub 2016 May 19. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 2017. PMID: 27197281 Free PMC article.
BACKGROUND: Muscle wasting is a component of the diagnosis of cancer cachexia and has been associated with poor prognosis. However, recommended tools to measure sarcopenia are limited by poor sensitivity or the need to perform additional scans. We hypothesized that pect …

Treatment of Breast Animation Deformity in Implant-Based Reconstruction with Selective Nerve Ablation.
Eck DL, Nguyen DC, Barnes LL, Jansen DA. Eck DL, et al. Aesthetic Plast Surg. 2018 Dec;42(6):1472-1475. doi: 10.1007/s00266-018-1184-0. Epub 2018 Jun 29. Aesthetic Plast Surg. 2018. PMID: 29959495 Review.
Given the disadvantages of repositioning the implant to the prepectoral position and transecting the pectoralis muscles via secondary neurotomy, we chose to directly identify and selectively ablate distal branches of the medial and lateral pectoral nerves. This offe …

Quantitative Computed Tomography Assessment of Pectoralis and Erector Spinae Muscle Area and Disease Severity in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Referred for Lung Volume Reduction.
Attaway AH, Welch N, Yadav R, Bellar A, Hatipoğlu U, Meli Y, Engelen MPKJ, Zein J, Dasarathy S. Attaway AH, et al. COPD. 2021 Apr;18(2):191-200. doi: 10.1080/15412555.2021.1897560. Epub 2021 Mar 19. COPD. 2021. PMID: 33736550 Free PMC article.
Current smokers demonstrated reduced PM CSA which was similar to that in COPD patients who were GOLD stages 3 and 4. PM CSA was associated positively with FEV1, FEV(1)% predicted, FVC, DLCO, and FEV(1)/FVC ratio, and was associated negatively with the degree of radiologic …

Preoperative Sarcopenia Assessment Using Pectoralis Muscle Mass Indicated Poor Mid-term Cardiac Surgery Prognosis.
