The aim of this study was to investigate if adverse MC predicts all\u2010cause mortality using data from UK Biobank.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>There were 40\u00a0178 participants scanned using a 6\u00a0min magnetic resonance imaging protocol. Images were analysed for thigh fat\u2010tissue free muscle volume and muscle fat infiltration (MFI) using AMRA\u00ae Researcher (AMRA Medical, Link\u00f6ping, Sweden). For each participant, a sex, weight, and height invariant muscle volume z\u2010score was calculated. Participants were partitioned into four MC groups: (i) <jats:italic>normal MC<\/jats:italic>, (ii) <jats:italic>only low muscle volume<\/jats:italic> [&lt;25th percentile for muscle volume z\u2010score (population wide)], (iii) <jats:italic>only high MFI<\/jats:italic> [&gt;75th percentile (population wide, sex\u2010specific)], and (iv) <jats:italic>adverse MC<\/jats:italic> (low muscle volume z\u2010score and high MFI). Association of MC groups with mortality was investigated using Cox proportional\u2010hazard modelling with <jats:italic>normal MC<\/jats:italic> as referent (unadjusted and adjusted for low hand grip strength, sex, age, body mass index, previous diagnosis of disease (cancer, type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease), lifestyle, and socioeconomic factors (smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, and Townsend deprivation index).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Muscle composition measurements were complete for 39\u00a0804 participants [52% female, mean (SD) age 64.2 (7.6) years and body mass index 26.4 (4.4) kg\/m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>]. Three hundred twenty\u2010eight deaths were recorded during a follow\u2010up period of 2.9 (1.4) years after imaging. At imaging, <jats:italic>adverse MC<\/jats:italic> was detected in 10.5% of participants. The risk of death from any cause in <jats:italic>adverse MC<\/jats:italic> compared with <jats:italic>normal MC<\/jats:italic> was 3.71 (95% confidence interval 2.81\u20134.91, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.001). <jats:italic>Only low muscle volume<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>only high MFI<\/jats:italic> were independently associated with all\u2010cause mortality [1.58 (1.13\u20132.21), <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.007, and 2.02 (1.51\u20132.71), <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.001, respectively].
