Phase Angle as a Prognostic Indicator in Cancer
Current methods to evaluate the severity and progression of the disease, effectiveness of therapy and survival among cancer patients are generally limited in their prognostic ability. Whole-body phase angle, measured by using a tetrapolar, phase-sensitive bioelectrical impedance analyzer, offers a new approach. Phase angle (arc tangent of the ratio of reactance to resistance) is a non-invasive ...
متن کاملBioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) and Phase Angle Introduction
T164, A0969, page 1442, journal of the American Society of Nephrology, September 1996, Volume 7, #9 Link not available Abstract: We performed a cross-sectional study of BIA (Bioelectrical impedance analysis, BIA 101-Q, RJL Systems, Clinton Township, MI) in 3009 HD (hemodialysis) patients with follow-up to 12 (median 8) months to evaluate the relation between impedance and survival. 296 deaths w...
متن کاملBlood group as a prognostic indicator in breast cancer.
A retrospective analysis of 1001 patients with invasive breast cancer showed a difference in survival between patients with different blood groups. Analysis of time from operation to local recurrence and to general recurrence reinforced this finding. The difference between blood groups became increasingly significant after accepted prognostic factors were allowed for. Patients at particularly h...
متن کاملBioelectrical impedance phase angle in clinical practice: implications for prognosis in advanced colorectal cancer.
BACKGROUND Phase angle, determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), detects changes in tissue electrical properties and has been found to be a prognostic indicator in several chronic conditions-such as HIV, liver cirrhosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and lung cancer-and in patients receiving dialysis. OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to investigate the prognostic role ...
متن کاملThe relationship between bioelectrical impedance phase angle and subjective global assessment in advanced colorectal cancer
BACKGROUND Bioelectrical Impedance (BIA) derived phase angle is increasingly being used as an objective indicator of nutritional status in advanced cancer. Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) is a subjective method of nutritional status. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between BIA derived phase angle and SGA in advanced colorectal cancer. METHODS We evaluated a c...
