The present study intended to evaluate the nutritional status of Portuguese colorectal patients and associated it with surgery type as well as quality of life outcomes. Malnutrition can affect up to 85% of cancer patients and specifically 30-60% in colorectal cancer and can significantly influence health outcomes. A sample of 50 colorectal cancer patients was evaluated in what refers to several anthropometric measures, food intake, clinical history, complications rate before and after surgery procedure. The sample was divided between convention and fast-track procedures. Most of the individuals were overweight or obese but had lost weight on the past six months. Despite mild, there were signs of malnutrition in this sample with high losses of fat free mass, weight and also fat mass during the hospitalization period. These results reinforce the importance of malnutrition assessment in colorectal patients as well as consider weight loss on the past months and body composition in order to complement nutritional status evaluation.
本研究旨在评估葡萄牙结直肠癌患者的营养状况，并将其与手术类型以及生活质量结果相关联。营养不良可能影响高达85%的癌症患者，在结直肠癌患者中具体为30%-60%，并且会显著影响健康结果。对50名结直肠癌患者样本进行了评估，内容涉及多项人体测量指标、食物摄入量、临床病史、手术前后的并发症发生率。样本分为传统手术和快速康复手术两组。大多数个体超重或肥胖，但在过去六个月中体重有所下降。尽管程度较轻，但该样本中仍有营养不良的迹象，在住院期间无脂肪量、体重以及脂肪量均有显著流失。这些结果强化了对结直肠癌患者进行营养不良评估的重要性，同时也应考虑过去几个月的体重减轻情况和身体组成，以补充营养状况评估。
