{Abstract}: OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of standard nutritional support based on nutritional risk screening on nutrition conditions and living quality in glioma patients after surgery.
METHODS: The clinical information of 100 patients with glioma treated at the Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from April 2021 to April 2022 was reviewed retrospectively. Among them, 39 patients received routine nutritional support during the perioperative period (routing group) and 61 patients received standard nutritional support (standard group). The relevant clinical data were collected, and the postoperative albumin (ALB) level, prealbumin (PA) level, hemoglobin (Hb) level, patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) score, Kanofsky performance score (KPS), and short-term prognosis were compared between the two groups. Finally, factors affecting the efficacy of nutritional support in patients with glioma were analyzed.
RESULTS: 14 days after the surgery, the levels of ALB, PA, and Hb of the standard group were significantly higher than those in the routing group (all P < 0.05). The PG-SGA scores of the two groups decreased with time, and the PG-SGA scores of the standard group were significantly lower than those of the routing group at 30 d and 60 d after the operation (intergroup effect: F = 9.077, P = 0.003, time effect: F = 75.28, P < 0.001, and interaction effect: F = 3.111, P = 0.047). The KPS scores of the two groups increased with time, and the KPS scores of the standard group were significantly higher than those of the routing group at 30 d and 60 d after operation (intergroup effect: F = 4.458, P = 0.044, time effect: F = 31.333, P < 0.001, and interaction effect: F = 3.507, P = 0.032). Within 6 months after discharge, the tumor recurrence rate of the standard group was significantly lower than that in the routing group (P < 0.05). After 60 days of the surgery, nutritional support therapy worked well in 32 patients, and the results of the logistic regression analysis displayed that age was an independent factor affecting the efficacy of nutritional support in post-operative glioma patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Standard nutritional support based on nutritional risk screening can improve the nutrition condition and living quality of post-operative glioma patients and is worthy of clinical application.
