A machine learning-derived sarcopenia index is associated with survival and nonrelapse mortality in DLBCL

Abstract Body composition analysis (BCA) provides an objective assessment of metabolic states, but its prognostic value in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) remains unclear. We applied machine learning-supported BCA to computed tomography imaging from patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL enrolled in the prospective phase 3 PETAL trial to quantify radiologic sarcopenia. We assessed BCA results in relation to survival after first-line immunochemotherapy, treatment-related hematologic toxicities, and molecular d…

Current reading — gain

Machine learning-supported body composition analysis applied to CT imaging quantifies radiologic sarcopenia and enables risk stratification for survival after first-line immunochemotherapy in newly diagnosed DLBCL.

Current reading — problem

In DLBCL patients treated with first-line immunochemotherapy, CT-measured sarcopenia in the lowest tertile of muscle mass is associated with inferior overall survival driven by nonrelapse mortality and higher risk of hematologic toxicity.

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0948 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
