From: It’s more than low BMI: prevalence of cachexia and associated mortality in COPD
Prevalence of cachexia (consensus and weight-loss definitions) stratified by GOLD and BMI category among COPD cases at Year 1 Visit in ECLIPSE stratified by GOLD (a, b) and BMI category (c, d). Numbers above bars represent prevalence in each group. Percentage of COPD cases with cachexia by the consensus definition significantly (p < 0.001) increased with increasing GOLD stage, COPD cases with low BMI were more likely (p < 0.001) to have cachexia by both the consensus and weight-loss definitions. Note: Cochran Armitage test was used to assess trends
