BURGOS, Rosa et al. Malnutrition management of hospitalized patients with diabetes/hyperglycemia and cancer cachexia. Nutr. Hosp. [online]. 2022, vol.39, n.spe4, pp.40-46.  Epub 06-Fev-2023. ISSN 1699-5198.  https://dx.doi.org/10.20960/nh.4510.

Diabetes is a frequent comorbidity in cancer patients, since they share common risk factors. In cancer, the concurrence of cachexia represents a poor prognostic factor, which is aggravated by poor nutritional status. Clinically, cancer cachexia manifests as a significant reduction in body weight, accompanied by changes in body composition and alterations in the balance of the biological system, and causes progressive dysfunction. This article describes the results of the expert consensus and the responses of the panelists on the nutritional management in routine clinical practice of patients with diabetes/hyperglycemia hospitalized (non-critically ill) with cancer cachexia.
