Role of Serum Albumin and Total Protein in Survival of Cancer Cachectic Patients

NCT05103059 | Unknown

• 1 other identifier: cancer cachexia
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 100
• Locations: 0 countries
• Sites: N/A

Brief Summary

Serum albumin can indicate the onset of cancer cachexia, provide information about a patient's nutritional status, and serve as a biomarker for the prognosis of patients with cancer cachexia. However, the relationship between serum albumin levels and mortality in patients with cancer cachexia remains unclear. We aimed to examine the association of albumin and total protein with 1-year mortality in patients with cancer cachexia

Conditions

Cancer

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• the association between serum albumin and total protein with one year mortality in patients with cancer cachexia

  to evaluate the association between serum albumin and total protein with one year mortality in patients with cancr cachexia

  baseline

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• the association between anthropometric measures and other laboratory findings with one year mortality in patients with cancer cachexia

  baseline

Interventions

BMI DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Patients with cancer cachexia will be enrolled in the study, and the following data will be collected: age, sex, total protein, albumin, hemoglobin (Hb), white blood cell (WBC) count, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, red blood cell (RBC) count, platelet (PLT) count, body mass index (BMI), mid-arm circumference (MAC), thickness of triceps skinfold (TSF), handgrip strength (HGS), and calf circumference (CC)

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years+
• Sex: all
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

weight loss in the past 12 months is ≥5%, and the physiological variables of patients match at least threeof the following five criteria: decreased muscle strength,fatigue, anorexia, low fat-free mass index (FFMI), and abnormal blood profile

You may qualify if:

• patients who will accept to participate in our study with diagnosis of cancer cachexia

You may not qualify if:

• patients who not fulfill criteria of cance cachexia
