Abstrakt: Background/Aim: Post-gastrectomy lean body mass (LBM) decrease has a significant negative impact on postoperative survival in patients with cancer. This study investigated the effect of intake of at least one-third of the daily protein requirement at breakfast on the maintenance of LBM in patients during the first month post-gastrectomy. Patients and Methods: Among patients with gastric cancer who underwent curative distal gastrectomy between April 2011 and December 2018, without adjuvant chemotherapy, we evaluated 401 patients who had consumed more than the daily protein requirement in the first month postoperatively, using the FFQW82 nutrition intake questionnaire. Patients were divided into those who consumed more (≥1/3 intake group, n=160) and those who consumed less than one-third of the daily protein requirement at breakfast (<1/3 intake group, n=241). We compared the LBM reduction rate at one month postoperatively between groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine clinicopathological factors predicting LBM reduction at one month postoperatively. Results: The LBM reduction rate at one month post-curative distal gastrectomy was significantly higher in the <1/3 intake group than in the ≥1.3 intake group (p=0.01) at breakfast. Multivariate analysis showed that morning protein intake below one-third of the daily requirement independently predicted LBM reduction (odds ratio=1.75, 95% confidence interval=1.14-2.68, p<0.01). Conclusion: Consuming at least one-third of the daily protein requirement at breakfast may be effective in maintaining LBM in patients undergoing curative distal gastrectomy. These results may be very important for prognosis, since maintaining LBM influences the continuation of adjuvant chemotherapy and thus survival after curative resection in patients with gastric cancer.
