About

Malnutrition is often accompanied by diseases, and it is also the driving factor of related diseases. Malnutrition affects the standardized treatment of diseases and is a key factor affecting their prognosis. In the treatment of some chronic diseases and cancer patients, malnutrition will lead to increased complications, decreased quality of life, and increased mortality. The nutritional assessment covers clinical and biochemical indicators such as body mass index, albumin level, lymphocyte number, etc. In addition, the metabolic level is even an important condition for assessing nutritional status. It is of great significance to explore an optimized nutritional status assessment system and its application in the clinical process for the prognosis, outcome, and guidance of individualized treatment.
This research topic is intended to:
- Explore different suitable nutrition evaluation and intervention systems in different diseases
- Establish innovative and optimized evaluation systems for a more objective assessment of the nutritional status
- Explore the role of nutritional status in fine stratification, prognosis evaluation, and individualized treatment of different diseases
