Measurements of resting energy expenditure (REE) can be used to determine energy requirements. Prediction formulae can be used to estimate REE but have not been validated in cirrhotic patients. REE was measured, by indirect calorimetry, in 100 cirrhotic patients and 41 comparable healthy volunteers,
## Abstract Lung cancer is still the leading cause of death from cancer worldwide primarily because of the fact that most lung cancers are diagnosed at advanced stages. Overexpression of the high mobility group protein HMGA2 has been observed in a variety of malignant tumors and often correlates wi
Weight loss and anorexia are frequent findings in advanced cancer. The progressive wasting could be attributed to changes in dietary intake and/or energy expenditure mediated by metabolic alterations. In this study, we analyzed dietary intake in generalized malignant disease of solid tumor type in r
Brachytherapy has the ability to deliver a higher tumor dose compared to external beam irradiation, while sparing normal tissue outside the tumor; it is the most effective means of delivering conformal radiation and can be tailored to clinical circumstances, either at open surgery or in an ambulator
