Abstract:
Sarcopenia is a common clinical syndrome in cancer patients and is becoming an independent poor prognostic factor. Studies have shown that an appropriate increase in protein, vitamin D, Omega-3, and other nutrient intake combined with exercise, while ensuring appropriate energy intake, can improve or even reverse sarcopenia. In this review, the research progress in the assessment and diagnosis, epidemiological features, clinical outcomes, and interventions for sarcopenia in patients with head and neck cancer was reviewed.
