[Nutritional risk investigation and related factors of 197 patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer].

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the nutritional risk status of patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC), and to analyze the factors that may cause the nutritional risk of NSCLC patients.

Methods: A total of 197 patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) who were admitted to the Department of Oncology of Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2023 to January 2024 were selected as the study subjects, and the nutritional status of 197 non-small cell patients was measured and evaluated by the Nutritional Risk Screening Scale(NRS 2002), and Analysis of the related factors of nutritional risk in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Results: Among 197 patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer, 13(6.60%) had a nutritional risk score of ≥3 points. Univariate analysis result showed that age, lesion size, body mass index(BMI), hemoglobin level, and smoking and hypertension history were related factors for nutritional risk in non-small cell lung cancer patients(P<0.05). Multivariate analysis result indicated that BMI level was a protective factor for nutritional risk in non-small cell lung cancer surgery patients(OR=0.51, 95%CI 0.38-0.70, P<0.01).

Conclusion: The incidence of nutritional risk exists among patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. The patient's age, lesion size, hemoglobin level, BMI, and whether they have a history of smoking or hypertension are related factors for the patient's nutritional risk. BMI is a protective factor for the nutritional risk of non-small cell lung cancer patients.
