Impact of Perioperative Body Composition Abnormalities on Patient Outcomes After Liver Transplantation

Completed

• Conditions: Body Composition; Liver Transplantation

• Registration Number: NCT06209775
• Lead Sponsor: Zhejiang University

Brief Summary

Accumulating evidence suggests the prognostic significance of body composition in chronic diseases and neoplastic diseases. CT imaging-based body composition abnormalities are significantly associated with post-LT adverse outcomes including decreased quality of life (QOL), impaired graft regeneration and mortality. However, the perioperative changes in body composition and their potential clinical implications remain unexplored. The objective of this study is to systematically explore and clarify the correlation between body composition and the prognosis of liver transplant patients through dynamic peri-transplant mornitoring.
