When people with cystic fibrosis (PwCFs) are treated with cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein modulator (CFTRm), it leads to changes in body composition. An easy, non-invasive, and reproducible method to assess this is by means of electrical bioimpedance measurement, which complements the information provided by the already-known anthropometric parameters.
Seventeen adults with cystic fibrosis in treatment with elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor (ETI) were recruited for a prospective, longitudinal, single-center study over 12 months. Study variables included weight, body mass index (BMI), and body composition by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) [including fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM)].
At 12 months, there was an increase in overweight patients (5.9% vs. 23.5%) and a statistically significant increase in BMI at 6 and 12 months. An increase in FM and FFM was observed at 12 months. The increase was greater in FM (95% CI) from a baseline of 1.77% (0.00-3.54; = 0.050) at 6 months and 2.64% (0.48-4.81; = 0.020) at 12 months.
After treatment with ETI, there was an increase in weight, BMI, and FM more than FFM in PwCF. These changes would be confirmed in long-term studies to improve nutritional management.
囊性纤维化患者(PwCFs)接受囊性纤维化跨膜传导调节蛋白调节剂(CFTRm)治疗时,身体成分会发生变化。一种简单、无创且可重复的评估方法是通过生物电阻抗测量,它补充了已知人体测量参数所提供的信息。
招募了17名接受依列卡福-替扎卡福-依伐卡福(ETI)治疗的成年囊性纤维化患者,进行为期12个月的前瞻性、纵向、单中心研究。研究变量包括体重、体重指数(BMI)以及通过生物电阻抗分析(BIA)得出的身体成分[包括脂肪量(FM)和去脂体重(FFM)]。
在12个月时,超重患者有所增加(5.9%对23.5%),且在6个月和12个月时BMI有统计学意义的显著增加。在12个月时观察到FM和FFM均增加。FM的增加幅度更大(95%CI),6个月时从基线的1.77%(0.00 - 3.54;P = 0.050)增加到12个月时的2.64%(0.48 - 4.81;P = 0.020)。
ETI治疗后,PwCF的体重、BMI和FM增加幅度超过FFM。这些变化将在长期研究中得到证实,以改善营养管理。
