Management of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has been difficult using standard therapy (radiation with temozolomide chemotherapy). The ketogenic diet is used commonly to treat refractory epilepsy in children and, when administered restricted amounts, can also target energy metabolism brain tumors. We report the case a 65-year-old woman who presented progressive memory loss, chronic headaches, nausea, and right hemisphere multi-centric tumor seen magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Following...
Baseline CT scans of 116 patients (48% female, median 64 years) with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) were retrospectively reviewed to investigate the prognostic role sarcopenia and fat compartment distributions on overall survival (OS), progression-free (PFS), early therapy termination. Skeletal muscle index (SMI), skeletal density (SMD), intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) quantified at level third lumbar vertebra (L3) proximal thigh (PT). Low L3-SMD, but not low L3-SMI, was...
This study examines how gastric cancer patients adjust their eating habits and quality of life after total gastrectomy, particularly concerning early satiety. While gastrectomy may provide a potential cure, it also leads to significant physical, psychological, social changes. Understanding these adaptations is essential for enhancing survivorship care. We conducted qualitative utilizing phenomenological approach gain insights into the lived experiences following gastrectomy. Semi-structured...
SummaryBackground & aimsTo investigate the association between parameters used in nutritional screening assessment (body mass index [BMI], unintentional weight loss [WL] and reduced food intake) clinical outcomes non-critically ill, hospitalized coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients.MethodsThis was a prospective multicenter real-life study carried out during first pandemic wave 11 Italian Hospitals. In total, 1391 patients were included. The primary end-point composite of in-hospital...
It is unclear whether weight loss (WL) achieved by means of lifestyle interventions (LSIs) before bariatric surgery (BS) can improve long-term WL outcomes after surgery. We aimed to assess the impact a structured LSI on WL% gastric bypass (GBP). Two groups patients were selected from large cohort participants with obesity who underwent GBP at Santa Maria Nuova Hospital (Reggio Emilia, Italy). The categorized as those have or not received prior GBP. group included 91 (cases) compared 123...
