Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the correlation of body mass index (BMI), ABO blood group with multiple myeloma (MM).
METHODS:70 MM patients (MM group) and 10 healthy people (control group) were selected in the same period, the BMI of patients was calculated according to the height and weight, and the differences of BMI in 2 groups was compared. The distribution of age, sex, albumin (Alb), serum creatinine (Cr), hemoglobin (Hb) and red blood cell (RBC) in the two groups were analyzed. Differences in red blood cell distribution width (RDW), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), disease stage and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level, survival rate of MM patients with different BMI values and blood group were compared between two groups, and the differences in follow-up outcomes of MM patients were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.
RESULTS:BMI level of MM patients was higher than that of control group (t=2.706, P＜0.01), but the difference of blood group was not significant (P＞0.05); The NLR value in obese patients was higher than that in non-obese patients, the staging was later and the Alb level was lower in obese patients than those in non-obese patients. the differences were statistically significant between obese patients and non-obese patients (P＜0.05). Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that BMI, Alb and LDH level could influence the follow-up outcome of MM patients, the patients with elevated BMI and LDH level had worse prognosis, while patients with elevated Alb had better prognosis. which means that all the three factors are independent factors affecting the prognosis of MM patrents.
CONCLUSION:Increased BMI in MM patients can affect the outcome of follow-up, which is an independent influencing factor.
