Article Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent cancers worldwide, with high morbidity and mortality rates. Nutritional status has emerged as a significant factor influencing the prognosis and survival of CRC patients. This comprehensive literature review examines the role of nutritional support in improving treatment outcomes, including the efficacy of interventions, patient quality of life (QoL), and the modulation of inflammatory responses. The findings suggest that tailored nutritional interventions improve clinical outcomes, enhance QoL, and reduce treatment-related complications, particularly by attenuating inflammation. Furthermore, the review highlights the cost-effectiveness of nutritional strategies and identifies key methods to enhance patient compliance with dietary recommendations. In conclusion, integrating nutritional support into CRC treatment plans is crucial for optimizing clinical management and improving patient well-being.

Radical esophagectomy remains the cornerstone of curative treatment for esophageal cancer, but is frequently complicated by postoperative events, most notably anastomotic leakage. Anastomotic leakage, occurring in up to 30% of cases, is multifactorial in origin and significantly increases morbidity and mortality. This review aims to summarize current management strategies, highlight emerging therapies, and identify persistent clinical challenges related to this complication.

Background: Migraine pathophysiology involves a constellation of metabolic abnormalities. These interlinked contributory factors include mitochondrial dysfunction, an altered gut microbiome, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, weight imbalance, and altered glucose metabolism. The ketogenic diet is an emerging therapy which may restore hypometabolism seen in chronic migraine.

Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of the hepatic peroxisomal enzyme alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGT), which catalyses the conversion of glyoxylate to glycine, resulting in increased oxalate production. The clinical consequences of the progressive build up of oxalates include nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis, chronic kidney disease and ultimately renal failure with extra-renal involvement. The diagnosis of PH1 is challenging due to the non-specific nature of its symptoms and the need for costly genetic testing.

Background: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) presents significant nutritional challenges during concurrent chemoradiotherapy, adversely affecting treatment outcomes and quality of life. Non-pharmacological interventions may help improve nutritional and immune status, reduce complications and enhance overall well-being. However, evidence of their effectiveness is scattered and inconsistent, and no systematic review has yet synthesised the evidence on their effectiveness.
