Bioimpedance analysis of body composition and changes in basic metabolism in patients with liver cirrhosis

Objective: to evaluate basic metabolism and its relationship with changes in body composition in patients with liver cirrhosis. Material and methods. A retrospective study was conducted, which included an analysis of data from 110 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of liver cirrhosis from 02.2020 to 12.2022. Assessment of body composition and basic metabolic data was carried out using ABC-01 MEDASS (STC MEDASS, Russia). Results. The basic metabolism in men with cirrhosis was 1631.0 (1577.5-1760.0) kcal/day, in women — 1337.0 (1256.0-1421.5); p=0.005. At the same time, among women, the indicator was reduced by an average of 18.1 % relative to the reference values of the main exchange for their age group. According to the results of multivariate regression analysis, gender (p
