Detailed Description
BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory disease characterized by chronic airflow limitation with significant systemic effects, which is often associated with one or more comorbidities such as malnutrition with negative effects on the evolution of the disease and increased risk of mortality. To determine the prognostic severity of COPD, Celli et al. proposed in 2004 the BODE index, a multidimensional scale that integrates information on body mass index (BMI), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), dyspnea and exercise capacity, evaluated by the 6-minute walking test (6MWT). Except for BMI, to which it assigns a maximum value of 1 point, it assigns from 0 to 3 points in the rest of the items, so the highest possible score is 10. The BODE reflects the progressive modification of the disease and is useful for predicting hospitalization and the risk of death among patients with COPD, and an increase at one point is associated with an increase of 34% of all causes of mortality and 62% due to respiratory causes.
The BODE index uses BMI as a variable of the nutritional status of subjects with COPD, however, alterations in body composition may occur, in the absence of clinically significant weight loss. In patients with COPD, a lower fat-free mass index (FFMI) contributes to worsening lung function, quality of life and exercise capacity, as well as a negative impact on exacerbations and survival, suggesting that FFMI may be more accurate than BMI as a prognostic factor for mortality in these patients. In a recent study conducted by Luo Y et al., the nutritional status of patients with stable COPD was evaluated, showing that 48.5% patients had a low FFMI (≤15 kg/m2 in women and ≤16 kg/m2 in men) with a significantly greater decrease in those with more advanced disease. The FFMI (Fat free mass index) can be objectively measured by electrical bioimpedance analysis (BIA), dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, computed tomography, ultrasonography or magnetic resonance imaging. The BIA is based on the Relationship between the electrical properties of the human body, the body composition of the different tissues and the total water content in the body. It is a simple, cheap, easy to perform and non-invasive method, based on the resistance to the passage of electric current through the body compartments and very useful for performing body composition analysis.
On the other hand, the 6MWT is a predictor of mortality in patients with COPD. Although it is a widely used test that impresses to be simple, its forecasting reliability depends on strict repeatability conditions and qualified human resources which presents obvious difficulties in people with walking disabilities and elders. To facilitate the multidimensional approach to this disease, other simpler, adequately validated and accepted clinical tools have been developed to estimate the severity of symptoms and their impact on quality of life. The COPD Assessment test (CAT) is the most widely used in clinical practice guidelines and is a questionnaire consisting of eight domains with a score of 1 to 5, which measure the health status of patients with COPD in such a way that the higher the score, the worse the patient's condition. According to the latest GOLD guide, it is an indispensable variable to classify the severity of the disease with a cut-off point in the 10 points. Its prognostic value has been widely demonstrated, and a recent study showed that patients with severe COPD and a CAT ≥ 15 have a significantly higher risk of exacerbations. Another multidimensional scale proposed in the literature is the BODEx, which also addresses the need to simplify the tests to be performed, considering the technical and administrative difficulties of the 6MWT, and proposed in 2009 by Soler-Cataluña et al., in which they found a prognostic mortality value similar to the BODE without the need to perform the 6MWT because it would be replaced by the number of serious exacerbations (those that required hospital care) in the previous year. Although the BODE index is widely used in clinical practice, it is believed that its performance can be improved. For example, with respect to its application as an indication for lung transplantation, the previous BODE has not demonstrated a prognostic value of the overall post-transplant results except in the subgroup of patients with a BODE ≥ 7. Therefore, with the hypothesis of being able to implement other items other than the scale, more representative in terms of nutritional status (FFMI instead of BMI) and simpler (the CAT instead of the 6MWT), the main objective is to compare the prognostic value of the multidimensional FODE scale (F of fat-free mass index), which replaces the BMI with the FFMI, compared to the BODE scale. As a secondary objective to analyse the variants in which the 6MWT is replaced by the CAT questionnaire.
STUDY HYPOTHESIS
- Conceptual Hypothesis On the multidimensional BODE scale, the Fat Free Mass Index is a better prognostic factor for exacerbations and mortality in COPD patients, compared to the Body Mass Index.
- Operational Hypothesis The Fat Free Mass Index better predicts exacerbations and mortality of COPD patients compared to the Body Mass Index, increasing by 10% of the area below the ROC curve of the multidimensional BODE scale.
METHODOLOGY
Population and sample size. The target population will be consecutive patients over 40 years of age with a history of tobacco use with a package-years index greater than or equal to 10. According to the latest epidemiological studies, the prevalence of COPD in the general population is around 12%, and based on the prevalence of malnutrition in this population, measured by the Fat Free Mass Index ranging between 4 and 35%, it is proposed from the following calculation of the sample for survival studies with a predictable correlation with other factors in a predictable Cox multivariate analysis: Relative risk to detect 1.5 Proportion of exposed subjects 0.48 Censored observations proportion 0 Confidence level 0.95 Statistical power 0.8 Other factors correlation to include in the model 0.28 Lost to follow-up percentage 0.15 Minimum sample size 237
Study design: Observational, prospective and multicentre study, which will determine in the cohort of patients with a recent diagnosis of COPD, the prognostic value of the nutritional parameter of Fat Free Mass Index (FFMI) on a multidimensional scale in which it will replace the Body Mass Index (BMI), and the parameters of Forced Exhaled Volume in the first second (FEV1) will be maintained, dyspnea as measured by the Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) scale, and exercise capacity measured with the 6MWT. Like the BODE study5, a follow-up of the cohort of no less than two years is proposed with a periodicity of reviews between three and six months. Four groups will be proposed according to the quartiles of the FODE index obtained, following the methodology of the study proposed by the BODE index. The low FFMI cut-off point was set at 15 kg/m2 in women and 16 kg/m2 in men, used in previous studies9. On the other hand, the BODEx index will be calculated according to what was proposed by its creators, in which the item will have a score of 0 to 2 points as follows: no exacerbations = 0 points; 1 to 2 severe exacerbations in the last year = 1 point; and 3 or more exacerbations = 2 points16. To guarantee the representativeness of the severity of COPD, the inclusion of patients in the 1:1:1 sense is proposed with the following three groups: group with FEV1 greater than or equal to 50%, patients with FEV1 greater than or equal to 30% and less than 50%, and patients with an FEV1 less than 30%.
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). BIA is based on the relationship between the electrical properties of the human body, the body composition of different tissues and the total water content in the body. For FFMI calculation, the TANITA body composition monitor model® BC-545, a brand used in recent studies and a model specifically validated in the Spanish population, will be used as an adequate meter for body composition with an adequate agreement with other tetrapolar BIA monitors, specifically the BodyStat® 1500 model, used in other recent publications. Description of the technique: Body composition monitor scale, InnerScanSegmental, digital, TANITA Brand® BC-545, offers information on the percentage of total body fat and muscle mass by body segments: right arm, left arm, right leg, left leg and trunk, in addition to informing us about the basal metabolic rate, fat-free weight, bone weight (PO) and visceral fat. The BIA measures body composition by sending a low-frequency, safe signal throughout the body, from the base of the scale. This signal circulates freely among the fluid of the muscle tissue though encounters the resistance of the fatty tissue. This resistance, the bioimpedance, is measured accurately and its results are contrasted according to the sex, height, and weight of the person to calculate in a personalized way the fat reading and body composition. To take the measurement with the scale, the barefoot subject places the feet each on an electrode and makes use of the retractable cable system, which transmits a small electric current that runs through the body passing through all the body tissue more slowly through fat than through muscle.
Statistical analysis and measurements. Statistical analysis will be performed using SPSS version 21.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL). Qualitative variables will be presented as absolute numbers and percentages, while quantitative variables as means ± standard deviations, ranges, medians or interquartile ranges as the case may be. The normal distribution of the variables will be evaluated with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The difference between the dichotomous characteristics will be analysed with the Chi-Square test with fisher's exact correction, and the quantitative variables by the ANOVA test in the case of reaching normality or the Kruskal-Wallis test when it is not achieved. The outcome variables will be death and exacerbations. The cumulative survival analysis will be performed using the Kaplan-Meier test and the comparative curves using the log-rank test. For the diagnostic validation of the FODE scale, Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) Curves will be used and compared with that of the BODE. The variables considered relevant according to similar previous studies, and the statistical significance presented in the univariate analysis previously described, will be analysed in a Cox proportional risk model to determine the independent association with mortality and exacerbations in the four groups formed. Finally, to verify the assumption of proportional risks, diagnostic and residual analyses will be carried out. As a sensitivity analysis, the prognostic value of the FODE scale will be analysed according to the phenotype and severity classifications of the latest GOLD and GesEPOC guidelines. In all analyses, statistical significance shall be set at a p-value of less than 0.05.
