Determinants of Treatment Toxicity in Patients with Soft Tissue Sarcomas Open
Soft tissue sarcomas are rare malignant tumors. Traditionally, treatment is guided by patient and tumor characteristics. Data on the influence of patient characteristics, particularly nutritional status, on clinical outcomes are scarce. Bo…

Association of Thoracic Skeletal Muscle Index with Clinical Outcome and Response to Nutritional Interventions in Patients at Risk of Malnutrition—Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Trial Open
Background: Measurement of skeletal muscle index (SMI) in computed tomography has been suggested to improve the objective assessment of muscle mass. While most studies have focused on lumbar vertebrae, we examine the association of SMI at …

Handgrip Strength Values Depend on Tumor Entity and Predict 180-Day Mortality in Malnourished Cancer Patients Open
Background: Cancer-related malnutrition is a prevalent condition associated with a loss of muscle mass and impaired functional status, leading to immunodeficiency, impaired quality of life and adverse clinical outcomes. Handgrip strength (…

Hyponatremia and activation of vasopressin secretion are both independently associated with 30‐day mortality: results of a multicenter, observational study Open
Background Hyponatremia is a common feature of acute illness and associated with increased mortality. This may be explained by a stress‐mediated activation of the vasopressin system with an increase in free‐water reabsorption. Objectives T…

Association of Nutritional Parameters with Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia Undergoing Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Open
Introduction: In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), there is uncertainty about the extent of influence nutritional parameters have on clinical outcomes. In this stud…
