Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET) is a key clinical tool used to assess exercise capacity and is key in predicting surgical outcomes. This study sought to investigate the relationship between CT measures of muscle volume and CPET performance in patients undergoing liver transplant assessment. The secondary aim was to investigate the relationship between sarcopenia and post-operative morbidity and mortality. Methods: A single-centre retrospective cohort study of 400 patients who underwent liver transplant assessment between 1st July 2016 and 1st July 2018 was performed. Routine pre-operative CT scans were used to analyse muscle and adipose tissue which were indexed for height to generate a Skeletal Muscle Index (Cut-off values shown in Table 1). These were compared with CPET variables collected as part of liver transplant assessment work-up. Groups were evaluated using the independent T-test, Chi-squared test and Kaplan-Meier distribution. Results: Of the 400 patients, 54 met the exclusion criteria, leaving 346 for analysis (121 sarcopenic and 225 non- sarcopenic). Clinical significance was found between sarcopenia and Anaerobic Threshold (AT) (p=0.033), Subcostal Girth (p=0.024), predicted Lung Transfer Factor (TCO) (p=0.010), peak Heart Rate (p=0.030), UKELD score (p=0.003) and transplant suitability (p=0.020) (See Figure 1).

First, a clinically evident MI, which can occur spontaneously or be related to a coronary procedure. Second, silent MI which is incidentally detected on serial electrocardiographic (ECG) assessment. The preva- lence of silent MI after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the drug-eluting stent era has not been fully investigated. The GLOBAL LEADERS is an all-comers multicenter trial which randomized 15,991 patients who underwent PCI to 2 antiplatelet treatment strate- gies. The primary end point was a composite of all-cause death or nonfatal new QWMI at 2-years follow-up. ECGs were collected at discharge, 3-month and 2-year visits, and analyzed by an independent ECG core laboratory following the Minnesota code. All new QWMI were further reviewed by a blinded independent cardiologist to identify a potential clinical corre- late by reviewing clinical information.
