What is N-3 Fatty Acids Supplementation And Chemotherapy Induced Toxicity: Scoping Review about?
Baseline measurements consist of blood withdrawal, faecal elastase-1 analysis, QoL and dietary behaviour. After 6, 12 and 24 months from baseline, measurements are repeated. The main study parameter is micronutrient deficiency (yes/no). Secondary parameters include occurrence and symptoms of pancreas insufficiency (n,%), time between surgery and start of supplementation (mean in months) and QoL at all time points. Results: Inclusion started in December 2021 and is currently still recruiting. Preliminary results of 18 patients who underwent oesophagectomy and 11 patients who underwent (sub)total gastrectomy are available. In total, 79.3% developed at least one micronutrient deficiency; 81.8% in the gastrectomy group and 77.8% in the oesophagectomy group. The most profound deficiencies are ferritin (46.6%), vitamin D (44.8%), iron (27.6%), zinc (23.8%). Conclusion: If micronutrient deficiencies are significantly present in this population and daily supplementation can prevent and resolve these deficiencies, routine monitoring and supplementation of micronutrient deficiencies can be implemented in the standard postoperative care.
