Abstract
PURPOSE Even after uncomplicated surgery, postoperative fatigue prevalence has been reported to be 30-80% for various surgeries. We evaluated postoperative fatigue according to anesthetic technique in patients who underwent colorectal surgery. METHODS One hundred thirty patients who underwent colorectal surgery were randomly assigned to either propofol-remifentanil total intravenous anesthesia (propofol-remifentanil group, n = 65) or sevoflurane-fentanyl anesthesia (sevoflurane-fentanyl group, n = 65). The primary outcome was the prevalence of postoperative fatigue, as defined by the Chalder Fatigue Questionnaire (total score ≥ 16), at 24 h postoperatively. Secondary outcomes were early postoperative complications during hospitalization and laboratory examination. RESULTS The final analyses included 127 patients. The prevalence of postoperative fatigue on the 1st postoperative day was lower in the propofol-remifentanil group than the sevoflurane-fentanyl group: 56.3% (36/64) in the propofol-remifentanil group and 73.0% (46/63) in the sevoflurane-fentanyl group (relative risk [RR] = 0.77, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.59-1.00; P = 0.048). However, there was no difference between the two groups in postoperative fatigue at postoperative day 3. Other postoperative outcomes including the severity of pain and the incidence of nausea/vomiting were not different between the two groups, but postoperative atelectasis on chest X-ray was higher in the sevoflurane-fentanyl group (2/64 [3.1%] vs. 9/63 [14.3%], P = 0.025). C-reactive protein change from preoperative to postoperative day 1 and 5 was significantly lower in the propofol-remifentanil group (P = 0.044). CONCLUSION Propofol-remifentanil total intravenous anesthesia was associated with reduced postoperative fatigue at the 1st postoperative day compared with sevoflurane-fentanyl anesthesia. Clinical trial The Korean Clinical Research Registry (study identifier: KCT0006917, principal investigator's name: MiHye Park, date of registration: January 12, 2022).

Multicentric, observational, longitudinal study for the evaluation of nutritional management implications in newly diagnosed Italian cancer patients: the Italian Registry of Malnutrition in Oncology (IRMO). BMJ Open 2023; 13:e071858. [PMID: 37604631 PMCID: PMC10445343 DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2023-071858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition is a frequent problem in oncology and is associated with reduced response to cancer treatments, increased drug-related toxicity, higher rates of clinical complications, reduced quality of life (QoL) and worse prognosis. Guidelines on clinical nutrition in oncology emphasise the usefulness of early assessment of nutritional status for a prompt identification of malnutrition and the implementation of effective interventions, but no real-world clinical data are available on the adequate management of nutritional support in patients with cancer in Italy. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is an observational, longitudinal, multicentre registry of patients with a new diagnosis of cancer or metastatic disease, candidates for active treatment. They will be identified in at least 15 Italian oncological centres, members of the Alliance Against Cancer Working Group 'Survivorship Care and Nutritional Support'. At least 1500 patients with cancer are expected to be enrolled each year. Detailed clinical and nutritional data will be collected by oncologists and clinical nutritionists during the visits foreseen in the clinical practice, through an ad hoc developed digital platform (e-Nutracare). The effects of malnutrition and nutritional support-at diagnosis and during follow-up-on overall survival and progression-free survival, as well as on patients' symptoms and QoL, will be investigated. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo, Pavia, Italy and from the Ethics Committees of all other participating centres. An informed consent will be obtained from each patient enrolled in the study. Study findings will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals, conferences and patients with cancer or professional associations. The registry will allow a better monitoring of the nutritional status of patients with cancer, promoting adequate and sustainable nutritional support, with the ultimate goal of improving the care and prognosis of these patients.

Association of Low Handgrip Strength with Chemotherapy Toxicity in Digestive Cancer Patients: A Comprehensive Observational Cohort Study (FIGHTDIGOTOX). Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14214448. [PMID: 36364711 PMCID: PMC9654937 DOI: 10.3390/nu14214448] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
In the FIGHTDIGO study, digestive cancer patients with dynapenia experienced more chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicities. FIGHTDIGOTOX aimed to evaluate the relationship between pre-therapeutic handgrip strength (HGS) and chemotherapy-induced dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) or all-grade toxicity in digestive cancer patients. HGS measurement was performed with a Jamar dynamometer. Dynapenia was defined according to EWGSOP2 criteria (<27 kg (men); <16 kg (women)). DLT was defined as any toxicity leading to dose reduction, treatment delay, or permanent discontinuation. We also performed an exploratory analysis in patients below the included population’s median HGS. A total of 244 patients were included. According to EWGSOP2 criteria, 23 patients had pre-therapeutic dynapenia (9.4%). With our exploratory median-based threshold (34 kg for men; 22 kg for women), 107 patients were dynapenic (43.8%). For each threshold, dynapenia was not an independent predictive factor of overall DLT and neurotoxicity. Dynapenic patients according to EWGSOP2 definition experienced more hand-foot syndrome (p = 0.007). Low HGS according to our exploratory threshold was associated with more all-grade asthenia (p = 0.014), anemia (p = 0.006), and asthenia with DLT (p = 0.029). Pre-therapeutic dynapenia was not a predictive factor for overall DLT and neurotoxicity in digestive cancer patients but could be a predictive factor of chemotherapy-induced anemia and asthenia. There is a need to better define the threshold of dynapenia in cancer patients.
