Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to determine how effective Body Cell Mass Index (BCMI) is as a predictor of (mal)nutrition, inflammation, and muscle mass in elderly patients, involving 114 participants with an average age of about 81 years.
- - Researchers utilized a structural equation modeling approach to analyze the effects of BCMI on various health markers, finding significant positive relationships, particularly with albumin and body composition factors like free fat mass and skeletal muscle index.
- - The findings suggest that BCMI is a potentially valuable and simple tool for assessing inflammation status in elderly patients, demonstrating a stronger relationship with albumin than the traditional Body Mass Index (BMI).
