“…Weight loss of ≥5% in 1 month or ≥10% in 6 months is a generally accepted cutoff for clinically relevant weight loss. Weight loss of ≥5% in 1 month or ≥10% in 6 months is associated with increased morbidity such as impaired wound healing, reduced immune function and decreased tolerance to surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy and with increased mortality [2,25,28]. Besides that, weight loss of ≥5% in 1 month or ≥10% in 6 months has a negative impact on disease-related quality of life and functional status [27].…”

“…The first part assessed CWL, defined as weight loss of ≥5% in 1 month or ≥10% in 6 months [1,2,4,8,25,28]. Assessment of CWL was based upon the formula [normal weight (kg)−actual weight (kg)]/normal weight (kg)× 100%].…”

“…As in the current study, negative outcomes at 6 months have been reported for the physical and head and neck specific concerns, largely reflecting the ongoing trouble with swallowing, social eating, dry mouth, sticky saliva, and mouth opening in the irradiated population 78,79 . In addition, weight loss of 10% or more in 6 months, as found in the current study, has been associated with increased morbidity such as impaired wound healing, reduced immune function, and increased mortality, and has also been shown to impact on quality of life and functional outcomes [80][81][82][83] .…”

“…Therein patients had lower phase angle than patients with normal weight. According to (Barbosa-Silva et al 2005) the reference values of phase angle from a healthy population offer the possibility of assessing individual deviations of patients at risk of impaired functional and nutritional status and increased mortality. Unfortunately, in our study we did not record such differences.…”
