Abstract
OBJETIVO: Descrever a elaboração de oito formulações de suplementos artesanais orais desenvolvidos para aumentar o consumo de energia, proteínas e micronutrientes de pacientes com câncer, analisar seu valor nutricional e avaliar a apreciação do sabor, testando dois tipos de lipídeos. MÉTODOS: Os suplementos foram desenvolvidos com base em quatro ingredientes alimentares: leite, ovos, açúcares e óleos para recuperação nutricional. As formulações foram calculadas pelo programa de apoio à nutrição NUTWIN e seu valor nutricional foi comparado às recomendações para pacientes com câncer para macronutrientes e às Ingestões Diárias Recomendadas para micronutrientes. Por meio de degustação, os suplementos foram testados para verificação do sabor quando preparados com óleo ou margarina. RESULTADOS: A quantidade de energia por mililitro variou de 1,35 a 2,17kcal, tendo 39% a 59% de carboidrato, 11% a 13% de proteína e 30% a 49% de lipídeo, fornecendo em média 43% e 77% da recomendação de energia e proteína, respectivamente. Vitaminas C e K, ácido fólico e manganês apresentaram 15% de adequação em relação às recomendações. Com relação ao sabor, 78% dos pacientes que experimentaram com óleo e 85% dos que experimentaram com margarina relataram sabor bom, sem diferença estatística entre os tipos de suplementos. CONCLUSÃO: A avaliação do sabor demonstrou que a maioria dos pacientes considerou o suplemento com sabor bom. Essas taxas foram superiores quando testados com margarina. Os resultados sugerem que o uso de suplementos orais artesanais pode ser uma alternativa viável em situações onde não há recursos suficientes para aquisição dos industrializados.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the role of nutrition in the development of postoperative complications in patients with oral and maxillofacial malignancy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ninety-six patients treated surgically for oral and maxillofacial malignancy, 27 of whom developed postoperative complications; the remaining 69 recovered uneventfully. Nutritional state and clinical variables in the two groups were compared. RESULTS The incidence of poor nutrition was greater in the complication group (56%) than in the uncomplicated group (20%) (p<0.001); the values for body weight, triceps skinfold thickness, arm circumference, arm muscle circumference, and creatinine-height index decreased more in the complicated than in the uncomplicated group (p<0.001); nitrogen and calorie intake during the first postoperative week was less in the complicated than in the uncomplicated group (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Poor nutrition plays an important part in the development of postoperative complications, and perioperative nutritional support of patients with oral and maxillofacial cancer must be properly managed.

Abstract
O emagrecimento, associado à perda de massa magra, é um fenômeno observado com freqüência em pacientes com câncer. Tal condição predispõe o paciente ao maior risco de infecções, pior resposta aos tratamentos implantados e, como conseqüência, desfavorece o prognóstico de cura. Além disso, a desnutrição também está associada à pior qualidade de vida. Dessa forma, algumas terapias têm sido propostas na tentativa de reverter o catabolismo, por meio da atenuação da resposta inflamatória, observado em grande porcentagem de pacientes com câncer e caquexia. Entre elas, a suplementação com ácidos graxos da família ômega-3 pode representar uma estratégia na redução da formação de citocinas pró-inflamatórias, favorecendo a tolerância metabólica dos substratos energéticos e atenuando o catabolismo protéico, com o intuito de melhorar o prognóstico de cura de pacientes com câncer. Entretanto, os estudos mostram alguns resultados conflitantes da suplementação com ômega-3 na resposta imunológica. Por outro lado, em pacientes com câncer, os ensaios clínicos mostraram atenuar a resposta inflamatória e melhorar o estado nutricional. O objetivo deste artigo é realizar uma revisão criteriosa do assunto.

Parenteral nutrition is not superior to replacement fluid therapy for the supportive treatment of chemotherapy induced oral mucositis in children. Eur J Cancer 2005; 42:205-11.

Abstract
Many paediatric oncology centres apply parenteral nutrition (PN) in children with severe oral mucositis after chemotherapy. However, no convincing data exist to support this treatment strategy. The aim of our study was to elucidate a possible advantage of PN versus intravenous replacement fluid therapy (FT). In a prospective randomized study, 30 children with mucositis WHO grade IV were assigned to receive either PN or intravenous replacement FT. Weight, total body water, fat-free mass (measured by impedance analysis) and peripheral white blood cells were assessed daily. For aspects of quality of life and economics, the length of hospital stay, the incidence of infections, the days on intravenous antibiotics and delay of scheduled chemotherapy were examined. Children with PN gained body weight significantly compared to baseline and to FT due to an augmentation of fat mass while total body water and fat-free mass significantly decreased. In children with FT, body weight remained stable while total body water and fat-free mass significantly increased, thereby loosing fat mass. We observed no differences in recovery of peripheral white blood cells (WBC), incidence of infections, hospitalization time, days on intravenous antibiotics, days on opioid analgesics and delay of the next scheduled chemotherapy cycle. Although children with PN gained weight in form of fat mass, this did not translate into a clinical benefit for the patients such as earlier recovery of WBC counts, shorter hospitalization time, a decreased use of analgesics or less delay of the next scheduled chemotherapy cycle. Our findings therefore do not support the hypothesis that PN is superior to FT when used for less than 10 days for oral mucositis.

Abstract
OBJETIVO: Avaliar a prevalência de desnutrição entre crianças com tumores sólidos em tratamento num centro oncológico brasileiro. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados 44 pacientes durante o primeiro mês de tratamento, por meio de medidas antropométricas e, de acordo com recomendações da Organização Mundial de Saúde, seguindo os escores-Z de peso/idade, estatura/idade e peso/estatura para o diagnóstico nutricional. RESULTADOS: De acordo com os escores-Z de peso/idade, estatura/idade e peso/estatura, encontramos, respectivamente, 16%, 7% e 16% de desnutrição entre as 44 crianças. De acordo com os diagnósticos de câncer, 27% dos portadores de tumores cerebrais, 25% dos pacientes com neuroblastomas e 11% com tumores de Wilms, apresentaram desnutrição energético-protéica. CONCLUSÃO: Há uma elevada prevalência de desnutrição na população estudada, que pode estar relacionada à doença, ao tratamento e aos fatores socioeconômicos, como também à falta de um protocolo nutricional para identificar e tratar precocemente a desnutrição em crianças com tumores sólidos.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is often used as an adjunct to cancer therapy. However, it is increasingly being used in terminally ill cancer patients without clearly defined reasons. To determine the validity of the use of TPN in terminally ill cancer patients, 26 patients with limited life expectancy due to end-stage cancer were given TPN by their physicians, and the validity of its use was evaluated using the criteria of 1) quality of life, and 2) ultimate outcome. Patients were divided into two groups according to the use of TPN. Group I = TPN as adjunct of medical therapy, n = 15 (eight male, seven female), mean age 32 y. Group II = TPN for in-hospital supportive care, n = 11 (two male, nine female), mean age 56 y. Nutritional status on admission, quality of life (assessed by extent of daily activities, pain, and ability to sustain oral intake), and ultimate treatment outcome were determined. Mean weight loss in patients in Group I was 8.6 kg, 11 patients out of 15 were malnourished; mean weight loss in patients in Group II was 21 kg, and all of the 11 patients belonging to this group were malnourished. Two patients of Group I improved their quality of life, while 6 declined and 7 died; in Group II, 3 improved their quality of life, 4 declined, and 4 died. We conclude that when TPN was given either as an adjunct to in-hospital aggressive therapy for cancer or for in-hospital supportive care, quality of life did not improve in the majority of patients; nor did it influence ultimate outcome. These objective data, thus, raise the question of the validity of the use of TPN in terminally ill cancer patients. However, barring the cost factor, it is recognized that subjective reasons for giving TPN to terminally ill cancer patients persist and include compassionate, ethical, religious, or emotional reasons.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The hepatic uptake of amino acids is increased in both sepsis and cancer, and this response appears to be both global and essential in the catabolic host. Because immunocompromised cancer patients are susceptible to episodes of gram-negative sepsis, we examined the capacity of hepatocytes from normal and tumor-influenced livers to respond to the additional challenge of endotoxemia via increases in the Na+-dependent uptake of glutamine and zwitterionic amino acids by System N and System A, respectively. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fischer 344 rats were implanted with methylcholanthrene-induced fibrosarcomas. Control rats were sham-operated and pair-fed. Animal pairs (tumor burden = 8-32% carcass weight) were injected intraperitoneally with either Escherichia coli endotoxin (10 mg/kg) or PBS, and after 4 h, hepatocytes were isolated from the livers of the animals via collagenase perfusion and placed in primary culture. Three hours later, amino acid transport rates were measured using radiolabeled glutamine for System N and alpha-methylaminoisobutyric acid (MeAIB), a nonmetabolizable substrate specific for System A. RESULTS Cancer-independent of tumor size-and endotoxin each elicited similar 1.5- to 2-fold inductions of System N activity. When combined, their effects were additive rather than synergistic. In contrast, endotoxin induced an insignificant increase in System A activity, whereas cancer stimulated this carrier 2-fold in either the absence or the presence of endotoxin. CONCLUSIONS The primary glutamine and alanine carriers in hepatocytes are differentially influenced during catabolic states, and the tumor-influenced liver is competent to further increase glutamine uptake in response to additional catabolic insults.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of glucagon or placebo on the rate of tumor fractional protein synthesis in situ in patients with localized rectal cancer who were not malnourished, demonstrated normal glucagon concentrations, and could therefore be used as a model to study the glucagon effect. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Cancer cachexia is associated with an increased concentration of counterregulatory hormones, including glucagon. This altered hormonal milieu may not only contribute to malnutrition, but also promote tumor growth, because previous experimental work suggests that glucagon can cause human colorectal tumor cells to proliferate. Corresponding mechanisms in vivo have, thus far, not been investigated. METHODS Advanced mass spectrometry techniques (capillary gas chromatography [GC]/combustion isotope ratio mass spectrometry [IRMS]) were used to determine directly the incorporation rate of 1-[13C]-leucine into tissue protein. Because GC/IRMS requires only a small sample volume, three consecutive endoscopic biopsies could be obtained from the same tumor to determine isotopic enrichments at baseline, after a 4-hour glucagon infusion (3 ng/kg/min), or after placebo. RESULTS In patients with localized rectal cancer, glucagon caused the tumor fractional protein synthetic rate to double (2.25+/-0.49 %/hr, p < 0.05 vs. 1.16+/-0.30 basal). In contrast, tumor protein synthesis declined over time in controls (placebo) (0.67+/-0.09 %/hr, p < 0.05 vs. 1.11+/-0.16 basal). CONCLUSIONS Tumor protein synthesis and growth can be stimulated by glucagon in situ. Therefore, elevated glucagon concentrations in cachectic cancer patients should be considered detrimental and attempts made to prevent this specific response of the body to the malignant disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract malignancies are at increased risk for malnutrition, as well as postoperative morbidity and mortality. As data clearly documenting the benefit of early postoperative enteral feeding in upper GI cancer patients as compared with no feeding are sparse, we examined the protein kinetic effects of early enteral feeding and compared it with standard postoperative care (ie, intravenous fluid). METHODS Twenty-nine patients undergoing resection of an upper GI tract malignancy were prospectively randomized to either enteral feeding (FEED, n = 12) starting on postoperative day (POD) 1 via a jejunostomy tube or intravenous fluid (IVF, n = 17). On POD 5, all patients underwent resting energy expenditure determination and a protein metabolic study using the isotope 14C-leucine to determine whole body (WB, micromol leu/kg/min) protein kinetics. RESULTS Respiratory quotient and insulin (microU/mL) levels were significantly increased in patients receiving enteral feeding (0.85 +/- 0.02, 19.8 +/- 4.5 versus 0.78 +/- 0.02, 9.3 +/- 0.8, FEED versus IVF, P < 0.05). Free fatty acids (meq/dL) were significantly lower in FEED group (0.36 +/- 0.04) as compared with IVF group (0.85 +/- 0.07, P < 0.0001). While there were no significant differences in WB protein oxidation (0.10 +/- 0.01 versus 0.10 +/- 0.02) or synthesis (0.81 +/- 0.09 versus 0.68 +/- 0.08, IVF versus FEED), WB protein catabolism was significantly less (0.91 +/- 0.10 versus 0.37 +/- 0.09, P = 0.002), and WB protein net balance was converted to positive in FEED group (-0.10 +/- 0.01 versus 0.30 +/- 0.03, IVF versus FEED, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Early enteral feeding decreases fat oxidation and whole body protein catabolism while improving net nitrogen balance. By significantly improving protein metabolism, enteral feeding may decrease postoperative morbidity and mortality in upper GI cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract malignancies are at risk for malnutrition and postoperative morbidity and mortality. We examined the protein kinetic effects of early enteral feeding in this population and compared it with results in patients receiving IV fluid. METHODS Twenty-nine patients undergoing resection of an upper GI tract malignancy were prospectively randomized to either enteral feeding starting on postoperative day (POD) 1 via a jejunostomy tube (FEED, n = 12) or IV fluid (IVF, n = 17). On POD5, all patients underwent a protein metabolic study using [3H]phenylalanine to determine forearm skeletal muscle (nmol phenylalanine/100 g/min) protein net balance. Free fatty acids (FFA, mEq/dL) and insulin levels (mU/mL) were measured. RESULTS Protein net balance was significantly less negative in the FEED group compared with the IVF group (-1.4 +/- 0.8 vs -5.0 +/- 1.4, p < .05). Respiratory quotient was significantly increased in patients receiving enteral feeding (0.85 +/- 0.02 vs 0.78 +/- 0.02 FEED vs IVF, p < .05). FFA levels were significantly decreased in the FEED group (0.36 +/- 0.04 vs 0.85 +/- 0.07, p < .05). Insulin levels were significantly elevated in the FEED group (19.8 +/- 4.5 vs 9.3 +/- 0.8, p < .05). Insulin levels correlated with amino acid fluxes. CONCLUSIONS Postoperative enteral nutrition in upper GI cancer patients results in an improvement in protein kinetic net balance and amino acid flux across peripheral tissue. In addition, insulin levels are elevated, and this elevation correlates with amino fluxes across the forearm. By improving peripheral protein kinetics, early postoperative enteral nutrition may potentially contribute to a decrease in postoperative morbidity and mortality in upper gastrointestinal cancer patients.
