About this study

Official title: Clinical Study on Nutrition Intervention to Improve Nutrition and Quality of Life in Patients With Esophageal and Gastric Cancer Treated With Chemotherapy

Patients with esophageal cancer and gastric cancer undergoing chemotherapy were selected as research objects to conduct nutritional risk screening, malnutrition assessment and quality of life assessment. They were randomized into the nutrition counseling group (NC) and the nutrition support therapy group (NST). To evaluate the nutrition and life quality of patients with esophageal cancer and gastric cancer before and after chemotherapy, and to study the effects of nutritional support therapy on nutrition and life quality.

Read the detailed description

In view of the high incidence of malnutrition in esophageal cancer and gastric cancer and chemotherapy may further aggravate malnutrition and reduce quality of life. According to the inclusion criteria, 280 patients with esophageal cancer and gastric cancer undergoing chemotherapy were selected as research objects to conduct nutritional risk screening, malnutrition assessment and quality of life assessment. They were randomized into the nutrition counseling group (NC) and the nutrition support therapy group (NST). To evaluate the nutrition and life quality of patients with esophageal cancer and gastric cancer before and after chemotherapy, and to study the effects of nutritional support therapy on nutrition and life quality; On this basis, a nutrition and life quality management system for patients with tubular upper digestive tract chemotherapy tumors was constructed, and the system was objectively evaluated from the clinical point of view, so as to provide a feasible scheme for improving the nutrition and life quality of patients with tubular upper digestive tract chemotherapy tumors.
