OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between energy intake and changes in thigh echo intensity (TEI) during the acute phase of stroke in older patients with hemiplegia.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Older hemiplegic inpatients with stroke were enrolled in this post hoc analysis of a prospective observational study. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to energy intake during the 7 days after admission as follows: energy sufficient (ES) and energy insufficient (EIS) groups. The outcome was the rate of changes in TEI of the paralyzed and nonparalyzed sides between admission and after 4 weeks. A decrease in skeletal muscle quality is defined as an increase in intramuscular adipose tissues, which shows as an increase in echo intensity.
RESULTS: The study included 44 males and 39 females (median age 81 years). The rate of change of TEI in each group was as follows: +4.5% in the ES/paralyzed group, +6.7% in the EIS/paralyzed group, -0.9% in the ES/nonparalyzed group, and +4.4% in the EIS/nonparalyzed group. The univariate analyses showed no significant difference in the rate of change in TEI between ES and EIS groups in both paralyzed side (p = 0.190) and nonparalyzed side (p = 0.183). Multivariate analysis showed that higher energy intake was associated with a smaller increase in the rate of change in TEI on the nonparalyzed side (B = -4.115, 95% confidence interval, -7.127 to -1.103).
CONCLUSIONS: Higher energy intake during 7 days after admission was associated with a smaller increase in the rate of change in TEI on the nonparalyzed side upon admission and after 4 weeks.
