Protein blend ingestion before allogeneic stem cell transplantation improves protein-energy malnutrition in patients with leukemia
2017, Nutrition ResearchCitation Excerpt :Sarcopenia (ie, severe muscle depletion) is an independent prognostic indicator of lower survival in patients with cancer [10]. Furthermore, malnourished patients had significantly worse outcomes than well-nourished patients with leukemia [11]. The degree of protein malnutrition is likely to influence the treatment outcome of leukemia hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and relevant chemotherapeutic outcomes.

2016, Archives of Medical ResearchCitation Excerpt :However, several groups of investigators in Mexico have made important observations, focusing on children with ALL (23). In 1989 Lobato-Mendizabal and colleagues in Puebla reported that undernourished children, defined by body weight, had much poorer 5-year disease-free survival (26%) than well- nourished children (83%) with standard risk diseases and showed that the former had lower cumulative doses of maintenance chemotherapy and experienced more relapses than the well-nourished patients (24). A decade later a group from Mexico City reported that undernourished children, defined by weight-for-height, had a significantly greater risk of death early in treatment than well-nourished children (25), whereas Gomez-Almaguer and colleagues in Monterrey, Puebla and Mexico City demonstrated that undernourished children were 3.5 times more likely to die during maintenance chemotherapy (26).
Why the oncologist should consider the nutritional status of the elderly cancer patient
2015, NutritionCitation Excerpt :However, all proposals of definitions of cancer cachexia and several clinical scores that quantify the risk associated with malnutrition include weight loss in their formulations. Data from literature show malnutrition evaluated as weight loss [16–37] or low bioelectrical impedance phase angle [38–45] or depletion of protein [46] of fat [47] or as low prognostic nutritional index [48,49], poor MNA [50], or severe Glasgow Prognostic Score [51] or are associated with a poor prognosis (Table 1). These series generally included patients of any age but some studies regarded only elderly patients [7,27,43].
