    Abstract Wasting in cancer patients has long been recognized as a condition that adversely affects cancer patients' quality of life, treatment tolerance, and oncological outcomes. Historically, this condition was mainly evaluated by changes in body weight. However, this approach is not quite accurate because body weight is the overall change of all body compartments. Conditions such as edema and ascites can mask the severity of muscle and adipose tissue depletion. Changes in body composition assessment in cancer patients have historically been underappreciated because of the limited availability of measurement tools. As more evidence highlighting the importance of body composition has emerged, it is imperative to apply a more precise evaluation of nutritional status and a more targeted approach to provide nutritional support for cancer patients. In this review, we will discuss the modalities for evaluating body composition and how to manage body composition changes in cancer patients.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Sarcopenia is prevalent in cancer patients and can occur as a result of cancer as well as cancer-related therapies. It is related to high postoperative complications, long hospitalization, slow recovery as well as low tolerance to chemotherapy. Patients with sarcopenia also have poor oncological outcomes. Oral nutritional supplements (ONS) and physical activity have shown great potentials in managing this debilitating condition. We summarized the recent developments in the assessment of sarcopenia and its management with ONS and physical activity.
    Recent findings: Many methods were developed to evaluate sarcopenia including muscle quality/quantity measurement and functional tests. Recent studies have shown that ONS and physical training can be used in managing sarcopenia, especially when used together as part of a multimodal intervention. However, barriers such as low awareness and lack of training and support for both patients and healthcare workers still exist and need attention.
    Summary: Recent findings highlighted the benefits of identifying sarcopenia and managing those at risk. The details of a multimodal protocol, such as components of nutritional substrates, the intensity of physical exercise, and the use of medication need to be further looked into for an optimum approach. Education and training programs need to be developed to overcome the barriers in managing sarcopenia.

    Abstract Background: The objective of this study was to explore whether longitudinal changes in skeletal muscle mass, from hospital admission to 3  weeks post-trauma, are associated with poor prognosis and nutritional intake in acutely hospitalized patients with abdominal trauma.
    Methods: A single-center retrospective observational review was conducted on 103 patients with abdominal trauma admitted to the Affiliated Jinling Hospital, Medical School of Nanjing University between January 2010 and April 2020. Skeletal muscle mass was assessed by abdominal computed tomography (CT) performed within 14 days before surgery and on post-trauma days 1-3 (week 0), 7-10 (week 1), 14-17 (week 2), and 21-24 (week 3). The skeletal muscle index (SMI) at L3, change in SMI per day (ΔSMI/day), and percent change in SMI per day (ΔSMI/day [%]) were calculated. The receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the discriminatory performance of ΔSMI/day (%) for mortality. Linear correlation analysis was used to evaluate the associations between ΔSMI/day (%) and daily caloric or protein intake.
    Results: Among the included patients, there were 91 males and 12 females (mean age ± standard deviation 43.74 ± 15.53 years). ΔSMI
    Conclusion: Loss of skeletal muscle mass is associated with poor prognosis and nutritional intake in patients admitted to hospital with abdominal trauma.
