Every day, over 34 people in the UK are diagnosed with head and neck cancer, growing 30% per decade. Only 13% catch it early. Oracle Head & Neck Cancer UK urges political parties to back a long-term cancer strategy for better outcomes. #OneCancerVoice
📢 New paper: Multimorbidity and the risk of malnutrition, frailty and sarcopenia in adults with cancer in the UK Biobank @JCSM_cachexia

Multimorbidity was associated with increased odds of having malnutrition and (pre-)frailty and should be evaluated during nutritional and screening and assessment to support risk stratification.
Thanks to @NicoleKKiss leadership! @daly_prof@LindaDenehy

The term ‘palliative’ derives from the Latin ‘pallium’ which means ‘cloak, protection’.
Seek to understand, respect, & preserve each person’s preferences, habits & identity. Individuality & dignity should underpin the work of palliative teams.

During illness & in old age protein intake is often inadequate contributing to muscle loss, decline in immunity, strength & ability to perform everyday tasks. Leading to falls & loss of independence. Find out more about increasing protein intake https://t.co/C3SrLSKVT6 #UKMAW2022
No matter how well you know the story or the people involved… nothing prepares you for emotional punch from the latest programme about @Rob7Burrow living with MND. It’s heartbreaking.
His family are wonderful… his wife is superhuman.
@DrCarlaPrado and collegues reviewed some evidence of a beneficial effect of HMB (β-hydroxy β-methylbutyrate) supplementation on muscle mass, function, hospitalization outcomes, and survival in oncological patients! #muscle#nutrition https://t.co/1VPZdOQ2MZ
