Detailed Description
NUTRITION CCS is a cross-sectional, descriptive study to assess the relationship between body composition and demographic, socioeconomic status, treatment modalities and blood samples of survivors who were in remission.
Objectives of the study
-
to determine the prevalence (incidence) of nutritional disorders, especially obesity and metabolic syndrome, in cured paediatric cancer patients in adulthood;
-
to investigate the role of adipokines in the development of cardiometabolic complications in this group of patients; 3. to determine whether targeted dietary and lifestyle interventions can lead to improvements in nutritional status and subjectively perceived quality of life of treated paediatric cancer patients in adulthood and objectively assessed cardiometabolic risk
Study Design
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Define the relationship between the levels of adipokines and cardiometabolic diseases. [through study completion, an average of 1 year]
Define the relationship between the levels of selected adipokines and the risk of selected chronic diseases, specifically cardiometabolic diseases.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Determine the prevalence of hight body fat and decreased skeletal muscle. [through study completion, an average of 1 year]
Determine the number of patients with a high body fat percentage. In these patients, monitor the responses of selected adipokine levels to targeted nutritional intervention leading to fat mass reduction.
