Abstract
Abstract
Background
Many variables have been studied in cancer patients. Nevertheless, an study that analyzes simultaneously physical, functional and biological variables in they from clinical, physical and statistical points of views is not reported in the literature. The aim of this study is to propose an integrated analysis of clinical, bioelectrical and functional variables in newly diagnosed lung cancer adult patients for the integral evaluation and possible prognostic of them.
Methods
This Pilot study was retrospective and cross-sectional and 23 patients aged 53–82 years participated in it. The electrical resistance and capacitive electrical reactance were measured with the Bodystat Quadscan® 4000 analyzer. The electrical impedance modulus and the phase angle were calculated. The serum concentrations of epidermal growth factor, CYFRA21-1 and CA 72–4 were quantified. Correlations/associations among variables and the principal component analysis were suggested.
Results
The majority of patients had tumor markers, electrical resistance and the phase angle in their respective normal ranges. The capacitive electrical resistance was below its normal range. Minimum, low and moderate grades of linear correlation/association prevailed among studied variables. The principal components I and II were interpreted as prognosis and body energetic reserve of the patient, respectively.
Conclusions
It is concluded that the clinical, bioelectrical and functional variables allow the integral analysis and possible prognosis of newly diagnosed lung cancer adult patients. The decrease of the capacitive electrical reactance is the most influence to the loss of the body energetic reserve that leads to alterations of the overall health, tiredness and decrease of weight and body mass index of these patients.
