Role of Nutrition in Pediatric Patients with Cancer

Abstract: Children with cancer are at high risk for developing short-term and long-term nutritional problems related to their underlying disease and side effects of multimodal treatments. Nutritional status (NS) can influence several clinical outcomes, such as overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS), treatment tolerance, risk of developing infections and quality of life (QoL). However, the importance of nutrition in children with cancer is still underestimated. This review focuses on alterations of NS that o… Show more

“…During the induction phase of treatment, the metabolic demands of children with ALL may increase. If the energy and protein intake are insu cient to meet these demands, it could slow down recovery, necessitating a longer hospital stay [49]. Moreover, the induction phase for ALL treatment is intense and can signi cantly impact the gastrointestinal system.…”

“…Dessa forma, ocorre uma oxidação dos substratos energéticos e a perda de proteínas. 6,7,8 Além disso, as citocinas podem atuar diretamente no sistema nervoso central, o que pode causar uma mudança no apetite e um aumento no gasto energético. 7 Outrossim, a toxicidade das medicações contra a neoplasia, como a quimioterapia, causam modificações no paladar, inapetência, distúrbios no trato gastrointestinal que, além de vômitos, apresentam problemas na absorção de nutrientes.…”

Deste modo, todos esses processos contribuem para uma perda de massa protéica no organismo do paciente pediátrico com neoplasia.…”
