Body Composition in Resectable Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients With Preoperative Sarcopenia: A Propensity‐Matched Analysis

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sarcopenia is a prognostic factor in patients with early‐stage non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Previous studies have focused on muscle loss, yet comprehensive body composition (BC) alterations in this population remain poorly characterized. This study aimed to delineate BC alterations using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)
