摘要: Although a great deal of attention has been given to protein and calorie malnutrition in patients with head neck cancer, zinc status not assessed properly such the past.In this study we characterized by cellular criteria several measures cancer. We determined prognostic nutritional index (PNI) based on serum albumin, transferrin, triceps skin fold measures, delayed hypersensitivity, as proposed Buzby et al. In study, baseline PNI 60 cancer were correlated tumor size overall stage disease.Our results showed that significantly whereas no correlation was seen PNI, alcohol intake, or smoking our subjects.We conclude is better indicator burden disease than ...
