Abstract Background Low muscle mass (MM) is a common component of cancer‐related malnutrition and sarcopenia, conditions that are all independently associated with an increased risk mortality. This study aimed to (1) compare the prevalence low MM, malnutrition, sarcopenia their association survival in adults cancer from UK Biobank (2) explore influence different allometric scaling (height [m 2 ] or body index [BMI]) on MM estimates. Methods Participants diagnosis within years baseline...

Malnutrition is highly prevalent in people with head and neck cancer (HCN) associated poorer outcomes. However, variation malnutrition diagnostic criteria has made translation of the most effective interventions into practice challenging. This study aimed to determine prevalence a HNC population according Global Leadership Initiative on (GLIM) assess inter-rater reliability predictive validity. A secondary analysis data available for 188 patients extracted from two point studies was...
Identification and treatment of malnutrition are essential in upper gastrointestinal (UGI) cancer. However, there is limited understanding the nutritional status UGI cancer patients at time curative surgery. This prospective point prevalence study involving 27 Australian tertiary hospitals investigated resection, as well presence preoperative nutrition impact symptoms, associations with length stay (LOS) surgical complications.Subjective global assessment, hand grip strength (HGS) weight...
Purpose: To investigate cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), body composition, health behaviors, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in adolescent young adult cancer survivors (AYA-CS) compared with age-matched counterparts without a diagnosis.
Abstract Background Haematological cancer affects more than 1.3 million people around the world annually and accounted for almost 800,000 deaths globally in 2020. The number of patients with these cancers undergoing bone marrow transplant is increasing. Of note, this intensive treatment associated complex multifactorial side effects, often impacting nutritional status, physical functioning overall health-related quality life. primary aim study to investigate effectiveness an eight-week...
Abstract Summary Digital voice assistants (DVAs) are feasible for delivering a digital health intervention designed to improve osteoporosis self-management in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. However, the DVA did not anti-osteoporosis drug adherence, nor it enhance knowledge or attitudes this population. Purpose To determine feasibility and effectiveness of assistant (DVA) improving medication attitudes, Methods This 12-month single-blinded, randomised controlled trial included 50 (N...
Background Muscle wasting (Sarcopenia) is associated with poor outcomes in cancer patients. Early identification of sarcopenia can facilitate nutritional and exercise intervention. Cross-sectional skeletal muscle (SM) area at the third lumbar vertebra (L3) slice a computed tomography (CT) image increasingly used to assess body composition calculate SM index (SMI), validated surrogate marker for cancer. Manual segmentation requires multiple steps, which limits use routine clinical practice....
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is a rare but highly aggressive disease with largely unexplained etiology and molecular pathogenesis. In this study, we analyzed genome-wide copy number changes, BRAF (V-raf sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1) mutations, p16 cyclin D1 expressions in panel of ATC primary tumors. Three ATCs harbored the common mutation V600E. Using array-comparative genomic hybridisation (array-CGH), several distinct recurrent alterations were revealed including gains 16p11.2,...
