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

NCT05103059 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2021-11-02

No results posted yet for this study

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
