Article Synopsis
- - The study examined how nutrition-related symptoms affect the quality of life (QoL) for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, using assessments like the PG-SGA and EORTC QLQ-LC13 tools.
- - Data was collected from 170 patients undergoing chemotherapy, revealing that poor nutritional status is significantly linked to a decline in QoL.
- - While some symptoms, like cough and shortness of breath, showed a moderate positive correlation with nutritional assessments, many other symptoms had weak correlations, indicating that focusing solely on nutrition may not sufficiently improve QoL for these patients.
strain Plasma (LC-Plasma) is reported to have anti-viral effects via direct activation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells, which upregulate the production of type I and III interferons. A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel group study was designed for elementary schoolchildren, grades 1 to 3, in Vietnam. LC-Plasma or a control were administered to schoolchildren as a beverage (1.

Methods And Study Design: This clinical, cross-sectional study was conducted from August 2014 to February 2015 at National Cancer Hospital, Hanoi, Vietnam. Stage III/IV esophageal cancer patients were assessed for their nutritional status (patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) and SGA scores, BMI, mid-arm circumference (MAC), energy and protein intakes, weight changes, Karnofsky and Eastern cooperative oncology group performance scores (KPS/ECOG), and Glasgow prognostic score (GPS).
Objectives: To determine the prevalence of malnutrition using anthropometric measures among hospitalized pediatric and adult patients admitted at Bach Mai Hospital, Hanoi, Vietnam.
Methods: A one-day cross-sectional survey was used in selected wards (Pediatrics, Surgery, Intensive Care Unit, Renal Diseases, Gastroenterology Diseases, Respiratory Diseases, and Endocrinology). Unavailable patients and those discharged within 24 hours were excluded.
