Abstract Objectives This study investigated the use of standardized phase angle (SPA), determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), as a nutrition status tool and prognostic factor for complications associated with pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in pancreatic cancer patients. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted with 49 participants. All participants were assessed for nutritional risk and nutritional status using Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002), Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) tools, Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) tool and BIA. The Clavien-Dindo classification method for surgical complications was used to identify and classify postoperative complications. Independent-samples T-tests, chi-square tests and Spearman correlation analyses were used to evaluate the association between SPA, nutrition and postoperative complications. Results A total of 49 patients were enrolled, and 20 patients (40%) had postoperative complications. The SPA value for the nourished group was significantly higher than the SPA value for the malnourished group (P = 0.021, 0.019, 0.023). Patients who were below the SPA cut-off values (−1.015, −1.065, and −0.69) were more likely to have postoperative complications (P = 0.009), whereas NRS-2002, SGA, and GLIM scores were not associated with postoperative complications. The SPA value of the group with complications was significantly lower than that of the group without complications (P = 0.004). The SPA threshold value for predicting postoperative complications in pancreatic cancer was −1.095 (AUC 0.737; 95% CI, 0.59, 0.88; P = 0.005). Conclusions The SPA is a prognostic indicator of postoperative complications in pancreatic cancer patients undergoing PD and is an effective tool for assessing nutritional status in pancreatic cancer patients.

Individuals often encounter psychological distress after a diagnosis of cancer, especially head and neck cancer (HNC). Worries regarding restricted functions, facial disfigurement, waiting time for investigation and duration of hospital stay for treatment make them feel awful. Often this feeling goes unnoticed and is underestimated. We aimed to assess the prevalence of the dreadful feeling in terms of anxiety and depression in newly diagnosed head and neck cancer patients. A cross-sectional study was conducted in two cancer-treating institutions in South India. About 357 freshly diagnosed HNC patients participated in the study. Pre-validated Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used to assess the anxiety and depression levels. Descriptive statistics was done to report socio-demographic, clinical variables and mean scores. Independent t-test and correlation test were done for comparison and association, respectively. Mean depression score for males and females was 11.481, 11.865, respectively. Mean anxiety score for males was 11.708 and 11.792 for females. There was a strong positive correlation between depression and anxiety score (0.864) among patients. There was no statistically significant difference in the mean anxiety and depression scores among gender, socioeconomic status, marital status and cancer stages (p>0.05). Newly diagnosed HNC patients had an abnormal level of anxiety and depression, which needs special attention and care during treatment for a better outcome.
