    Critical review: phase angle and nutritional status in people with cancer
    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2024-02-15) Mendoza Espinoza, Kenjhy Pricila; Bohórquez Medina, Andrea Lisbet
    Nowadays there are more people diagnosed with cancer, being common to find oncological patients with malnutrition, on the other hand there are different methods of nutritional evaluation, some present limitations and their results can be influenced by factors not necessarily nutritional, for this reason the developed investigation that has as title "Critical Review: Phase Angle and Nutritional Status in people with cancer", had as objective to determine if the phase angle can be related to the nutritional status in patients with cancer. The clinical question was: Can phase angle be related to nutritional status in cancer patients? The Nutrition Based on Evidence (NuBE) methodology was used. The search for information was performed in the databases: PUBMED, SCIENCE DIRECT, BVSALUD, SCIELO, BJHR, SCOPUS and EMBASE. As a result of this search, 35 articles were found, of which 22 were selected and evaluated with the CASPE critical reading tool. The cross-sectional clinical study of a cohort entitled "Ângulo de Fase e Estado Nutricional em Indivíduos com Câncer Avançado em Cuidados Paliativos" was chosen for this critical review, which has a BII level of evidence and a STRONG degree of evidence. The critical review allows concluding that individuals with worse nutritional status have lower phase angle values.
