Tumori Journal, 2015Hyponatremia is the most frequent electrolyte disorder in hospitalized patients but also a well-known poor prognostic factor in cancer patients.

The Rorschach With Hospice Cancer Patients and Surviving Cancer Patients
Journal of Personality Assessment, 1991Two groups, terminally ill hospice female lung and breast cancer patients and surviving female lung and breast cancer patients (mean age = 74.3 years), were given the Rorschach to discern the underlying personality structure. The hospice patients were found to be withdrawn, anxious, depressed, and unable to express their deep, fearful emotions.

Pruritus is an uncommon symptom in cancer patients but can often be difficult to treat. The pathogenesis is complex and is not fully understood although there is evidence of involvement of a number of mediators from which treatment options are developing.

This figure is statistically significant.

Supportive Care in Cancer, 1996
Many factors can modify nutritional status in cancer patients, including cachexia, nausea and vomiting, decreased caloric intake or oncologic treatments capable of determining malabsorption. Cachexia is a complex disease characterized not only by a poor intake of nutrients or starvation, but also by metabolic derangement.

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1981
The metabolic alterations that produce “cancer cachexia” are reviewed, and the efficacy of nutritional therapy in ameliorating this syndrome is discussed. Also considered is the question of potential stimulation of tumor growth by aggressive nutritional support.

Medical Clinics of North America, 2006
Providing effective and tolerable cancer treatment for the growing number of older adult patients who have cancer will require an understanding of the role of aging, comorbidity, functional status, and frailty on treatment outcomes. The incorporation of CGA into the care of older patients who have cancer will ensure that the heterogeneity of this ...

BMJ Supportive & Palliative Care, 2021
Patient navigators have been around since the late 1970s, but in many clinics, the role is often misunderstood. The reasons vary but arise from a lack of standardisation across the country. Navigators are tasked with a wide variety of duties, based on what is lacking in the clinics where they work, not necessarily what their optimal role dictates ...
