Data Sheet 1_Joint association of estimated skeletal muscle mass index and prognostic nutr

942 patient records from a study investigating the joint prognostic value of estimated skeletal muscle mass index (eSMI) and Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) in non-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The dataset, authored by Fansu Huang and shared under CC-BY-4.0, includes outcomes over a median follow-up of 54 months, with 204 deaths recorded. It was last updated on 2026-05-14.

Use Cases

• Developing prognostic models based on combined muscle mass and nutritional status.
• Analyzing the independent association of low Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) with mortality risk.
• Evaluating the joint risk stratification of eSMI and PNI for targeted patient interventions.
• Validating statistical methods like win ratio analysis for clinical benefit assessment.

Strengths

• Dataset includes 942 patient records with a clearly defined cohort of non-metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer patients.
• Analysis provides specific hazard ratios and confidence intervals for mortality risk based on eSMI and PNI categories.
• Study employs multivariate Cox models and win ratio analysis, suggesting a structured analytical approach.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The 83.7 KB file size suggests a very limited scope, likely containing summary results rather than raw patient-level data.
