Psoas muscle size is a validated surrogate for global skeletal mass, changes in which are associated with inflammation. The objective was to investigate psoas muscle size in individuals following FAP, RAP, and CP, as well as its associations with pro-inflammatory cytokines. METHODS Individuals following pancreatitis and healthy individuals were recruited. All participants underwent magnetic resonance imaging, from which psoas muscle volume was derived independently by two raters in a blinded fashion. Circulating levels of four major cytokines (interleukin-6, tumour necrosis factor-α, C-C motif chemokine ligand 2, and leptin) were measured. Five linear regression additive models were built to adjust for possible confounders (age, sex, body composition, physical activity, tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, comorbiditin, physical activity, tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, comorbidities, and exocrine and endocrine functions of the pancreas. • The mechanism underlying the observed findings may involve hyperleptinaemia.BACKGROUND The burden of breast cancer has grown rapidly in China during recent decades. However, the association between tumor markers (CA15-3, CA125, and CEA) and breast cancer survival among certain molecular subtypes is unclear; we described this association in a large, population-based study. METHODS We conducted a co
