Progress in research of sarcopenia in digestive system malignant tumors
More and more clinicians are realizing that the prognosis of cancer patients depends not only on tumor stage, pathological type, tumor cell differentiation, molecular type, etc., but also on patient factors, such as nutritional status. Compared to body mass index, patient muscle mass and physical function can more comprehensively reflect the patient's nutritional status. Previous studies have shown that sarcopenia can affect the prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal tumors and have an impact on different treatment modes. This state can be reversed through exercise, nutritional support, and medication treatment to improve the prognosis of patients.
