Descrição

Rationale: Undernutrition is frequently associated with advanced lung cancer. Accurate nutritional assessment tools are important to provide the proper nutritional therapy. Hand grip strength (HGS) has already been used in these patients and the findings suggest it is a good indicator of nutritional status. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between nutritional status and hand grip strength in patients with nonresectable lung cancer.
