Background : Previous studies reported that visceral fat plays an important role in cardiovascular disease, even in non-obese individuals. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a non-invasive and radiation-free method for assessing visceral fat. Not much is known whether visceral fat correlates with lipid profile in myocardial infarction (MI) patients in Indonesian population. The purpo…
Background: Malnutrition in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients is caused by various factors such as tumor localization, metabolic derangement, and side effects of therapy. Poor nutritional status in cancer patients is associated with serious clinical consequences such as poor quality of life, higher treatment toxicity, and poor prognosis. The purpose of this study was to determine the e…
