Inflection-Point Nutrition Support Determined by Oral Mucosal Apoptosis Rate Is a Novel Assessment Strategy for Personalized Nutrition: A Prospective Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Energy intake and nutritional status influences a patient's recovery from major abdominal surgery. The aim of this study is to explore and validate the clinical feasibility of an inflection-point nutrition strategy for personalized nutrition in gastric cancer patients after surgery.

Methods

We conducted a prospective cohort study from a single tertiary referral hospital. Patients diagnosed with gastric cancer who met the inclusion criteria were included in this study. We collected the demographic and clinic pathological characteristics of included patients. Patients were divided into a formular nutrition (FN) and inflection-point nutrition (IPN) group. We monitored the perioperative dynamics of the oral mucosal epithelia cell apoptosis rate. Predictive factors for
