Assessment of nutritional status and quality of life in patients with pancreatic head cancer

The aim of this study is to evaluate the nutritional status and quality of life (QOL) in patients with unresectable pancreatic head cancer. This is a retrospective assessment that included different parameters namely: current weight, weight loss, body mass index (BMI), bilirubin level (BT), serum al...

This is a retrospective assessment that included different parameters namely: current weight, weight loss, body mass index (BMI), bilirubin level (BT), serum albumin (ALB) and C-reactive protein (CRP).

All patients had significant weight loss [median 24.9% (2%-37%) of stable pre-disease weight], BMI was less than 18.5 kg/m2 in 66% (18.28 ±3.6 kg/m2). Bilirubin was greater than 200mg/l in 44%, ALB less than 35 g/l in 92% and CRP greater than 6 mg/l in 84% of patients.
