What is Sarcopenic Obesity in Colorectal Cancer about?
This scoping review investigates the diagnosis and prevalence of sarcopenic obesity (SO) in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, revealing that SO is primarily diagnosed using skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) and body mass index (BMI). The overall prevalence of SO in CRC patients is approximately 15%, with variations based on diagnostic methods. The study highlights the need for standardized diagnostic criteria and further research on the clinical outcomes associated with SO in CRC patients.
