Although these new therapeutic strategies represent a remarkable advantage over the standards of care, it is impossible to ignore that many more patients are now facing the nutritional consequences of prolonged immunological and metabolic challenges deriving from ongoing diseases and aggressive therapies. ..Aim of the volume, written by world-renowned scientists, is to provide the best available evidence on the pathogenesis, clinical features and therapeutic approach of cachexia, and to facilitate the understanding of the complex yet unequivocal clinical role of this syndrome, that truly represents a disease, or, better still, a disease within other different diseases. . | 出版日期 | Book 20061st edition | 关键词 | Diabetes; HIV; HIV infection; aging; assessment; cancer; depression; geriatric oncology; geriatrics; infectio | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-88-470-0552-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-88-470-5797-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-88-470-0552-5 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Milan 2006 |
