Immunonutrition before and during radiochemotherapy: improvement of inflammatory parameters in head and neck cancer patients

摘要

Inflammatory, angiogenic and oxidative stress markers have been explored in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients before and during radiochemotherapy. Furthermore, the effects of an oral supplementation containing amino acids, ω-3 fatty acids, ribonucleic acids, vitamins, and antioxidants on biological markers and acute toxicities were investigated.
