Nearly 60% of pediatric patients diagnosed with cancer develop malnutrition caused by a combination of disease burden, side effects of chemotherapy, and the intensity of cancer treatment. These patients are known to have an increased risk of infection, treatment-related toxicity, inferior clinical outcomes, and increased risk of mortality. Malnutrition may progress to cancer cachexia, characterized by anorexia, increased inflammation, decreased fat, and decreased muscle mass with subsequent weight loss, which is associated with decreased overall survival. The goal of the proposed research is to determine changes in body composition, weight status, and nutritional status between common nutrition interventions including oral nutrition supplements (ONS), appetite stimulants, and enteral nutrition (EN) among pediatric cancer patients. A secondary goal of this research is to utilize the findings to develop clinical nutrition guidelines for this patient population. The specific objective of the research proposed is to solve the lack of evidence to adequately treat nutritional deficits in the pediatric oncology population. Without this data, there is a lack of clinical consistency in the initiation and selection of appropriate nutrition interventions to provide a more definitive pathway of care. This study can help formulate a clinical guideline for this patient population before, during, and after treatment.
This study is a 6-month randomized controlled trail of diet modification designed to reduce chronic inflammation and reverse metabolic dysfunction among obese individuals with one or more polyps found at a colonoscopy screening. We also will recruit an at least overweight partner, who lives in the same household. To be eligible, participants will be apparently disease-free, obese AAs or EAs who have self-identified a partner who is at least 9 years, with whom they live and who also is at least overweight. Each index participant will: 1) Be AA or EA by self-report; 2) Be ≤55 years old; 3) Have undergone a colonoscopy screening and found to have ≥1 polyp(s); 4) Be free of co-morbid conditions or other factors that would limit participation in this trial; 5) Have a BMI ≥30kg/m2; 6) Be willing to commit to investing the time and effort required to participate in this trial (i.e., willing to complete all assessments and provide biological samples as specified in the consent); and 7) Have no recent antibiotic use. Their partner needs to: 1) Be at least 9 years old; 2) Live in the same household and consumes meals together; 3) Be at least overweight; 4) Agree to all study procedures, including provision of biological samples, body measurements, and self-reported dietary and other assessments; and 5) Have no recent antibiotic use.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about breast cancer lipodome signature in patients waiting for surgery with different Body Mass Index. The main question it aims to answer are: - To highlight a specific lipidome molecular signature for breast cancer patients overweight and obese (BMI > 25 Kg/m2) compared with patients of normal weight (BMI<25 kg/m2). - Evaluate the effect of the pool of biochemical, nutritional and anatomical-pathological data of breast cancer patients and the correlation between molecular profile and body weight.
The present clinical trial was designed to explore the effect of postoperative physical exercise combined with enteral nutritional supplement on 3-year disease-free survival in patients with advanced gastric cancer.
This observational study aims to learn about the relationship between the nutritional status of patients with colorectal cancer and clinical outcome after colorectal surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - which anthropometric, laboratory and specific parameters best define that patient is at nutritional risk - will patients that are at nutritional risk stay longer in the hospital after surgery than those who are not at nutritional risk Patients will be preoperatively examined anthropometrically, radiologically and laboratoryally. Postoperatively, the course of their treatment will be monitored, as well as the monitoring of postoperative complications. A group of patients with and without malnutrition will be compared.
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols were developed to standardize perioperative practice in colon surgery to reduce morbidity, improve recovery, and shorten length of stay (LOS). Better protocol adherence translates into fewer readmissions and complications, and better 5-year survival. Preoperative elements, especially nutrition and immunonutrition, are topics that need further development to become the standard of care. It has been widely reported that the prevalence of malnutrition reaches 40% in cancer patients at the time of diagnosis. Impaired nutritional status at the time of surgery and cancer-induced inflammation, along with postoperative inflammatory responses to major surgery, increase the risk of postoperative complications, along with a decrease in perceived quality of life. Immunonutrition can modulate inflammation and reduce postoperative infections and shorten length of stay by counteracting the immune response induced by cancer. Adipose tissue has been shown to be a relevant source of inflammatory mediators, which may play a role in the promotion of tumor cachexia. The present study is a multicenter randomized control study (RCT) designed to evaluate the effect of preoperative immunonutrition in patients with colorectal cancer eligible for elective minimally invasive procedures, evaluating in particular surgical site infection and length of hospital stay. A biopsy of subcutaneous adipose tissue and visceral adipose tissue will also be performed, in order to evaluate the differences between inflammatory infiltrate, degree of fibrosis and cross-sectional area of adipocytes compared to controls.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of nutritional management on radiation-induced oral mucositis in patients with advanced head and neck cancer during the peri-radiotherapy period . The main questions it aims to answer are: - [question 1]Whether whole-course nutritional intervention can improve radiation-induced oral mucositis in patients with HNC. - [question 2]Whether whole-course nutritional intervention can improve nutritional status and inflammation. Participants will be treated according to the NCCN guidelines. In addition, clinical pharmacists and registered dietitians provided nutritional intervention strategies based on clinical and nutritional assessments for the patients in the peri-radiotherapy nutrition group. Researchers will compare clinical routine examination and nutritional indicators between the standard treatment group and the peri-radiotherapy nutrition management group to see if nutrition management effects.
Nutritional therapy is key to helping cancer patients get the nutrients they need to maintain body weight, strength, tissue and organ integrity, and face likely infections. Some cancer treatments work best when the patient is well nourished and has enough calories and macronutrients from food. According to the latest consensus, the first step in nutritional intervention is nutritional recommendations or dietary advice. These recommendations must be realized if the patient is capable of ingesting at least 75% of the nutritional requirements that correspond to them and, if there is no approach to an upcoming risk therapy. As long as the oral route is not damaged, in dietary advice this should always be the first option. Increasingly, laboratories specialized in nutritional products prepare and improve the composition of supplements. They are complete, specific and perfect to meet the dietary needs of patients who require it. But, to fulfill their function, they have to be ingested by people and for that they have to have good organoleptic characteristics, a very important nuance that is sometimes not taken into account in the manufacture of these products. It is the object of Adventia Pharma, S.L. develop new Oral Nutritional Supplements specific for cancer patients and that meet optimal organoleptic characteristics. For this reason, a pilot study will be carried out that will evaluate different sensory and organoleptic aspects of the prototypes of supplements developed by the company to determine the consumer's reaction to the products developed and subsequently be able to select the one with the greatest acceptance.
Using randomized control study, explore the effect of novel nutrition education program on the nutrition status and life quality of cancer patients receiving radiotherapy
