Ageusia Loss or absence of the sense of taste
Allogenic marrow Transfer of marrow from donor to another person who is
transplantation not genetically identical
Chemical agents (cytotoxics, biotherapies, hormones) or
Antineoplastic agents other agents used to prevent the development,
maturation or spread of neoplastic cells
molecules (ie. vitamins) that block action of activated
antioxidants
oxygen molecules (free radicals) that can demage cells
autologous marrow transfer of marrow from the pt's OWN tissue (from
transplantation hematopietic stem cells)
per sample test question:temporal wasting, depleted fat
stores, profound anorexia
Multifactorial syndrome characterized by ongoing loss
of skeletal muscle mass, anorexia, early satiety, wt loss,
anemia, edema, fatigue, possible metabolic alterations,
cancer cachexia
increased inflammatory markers and progressive
functional impairment.
Pathophysiology characterized by negative protein
energy balance driven by variable combination of
reduced food intake and abnormal metabolism
carcinogen an agent (physical, chemical, or viral) that induces CA
, the origin or development of CA, a multistage, biological
process that proceeds on a continuum but is often
carcinogenesis
described in stages of initiation, promotion and
progression
protein mediators produced by inflammatory cells in
cytokines response to exogenous stimuli, produce metabolic
changes & wasting
dysgeusia altered taste
a disease caused by the immune response of
histoincompatible, immunocompetent donor cells
against the tissues of an immunoincompetent host; an
immuniologic reaction of allogeneic donor cells (graft)
reacting against the pt (host) tissues
graft-versus-host disease evidenced by icterus & abnormal liver functions, severe
(GVHD) /secretory diarrhea - may need total bowel rest -->
isomotic, low residue, lactose-free diet --> solids with
low lactose, fiber, fat & acideity, gastric irritants -->
regular diet
- usually 3 onths after transplant (but may be 7-10 days
post)
hypogeusia decreased taste acuity
the initial stage of tumorigenesis, involving
initiation
transformation of cellular DNA
mass of cancer cells that invades surrounding tissues or
malignant neoplasm
spreads to distant areas of body
growth of malignant tissue THAT SPREADS to
metastasis
surrounding tissue or organs
myelosuppression suppression of bone marrow cell production
a reduction of WBC (neutrophils) that can be caused by
neutropenia chemo or XRT, results in increased susceptibility to life-
threatening infections
, a reduction in all cellular elements of the blood (WBC,
pancytopenia
RBC, platlets)
nonutritive compounds in plants thought to influence the
process of tumorigenesis.
phytochemicals
Compounds in plants (apart from vitamins, minerals, and
macronutrients) that have a beneficial effect the body.
the phase in which tumor cells aggregate, grow
autonomously and form benign tumors that eventually
progression
lead to malignant phenotype with the capacity for tissue
invasion & mets
The stage of tumorigenesis in which initiated cells are
Promotion activated by a promoting agent to multiply and form a
discrete tumor
a condition of inflammation that can occur after XRT to
radiation-induced enteritis
the GI tract & that leads to diarrhea & malabsorption
a classification system known as TNM that is used to
identify the "extent" of the tumor: its size, the degree of
growth & spread;
staging
T - size of tumor
N- degree of spread to lymph nodes
M- presence of mets
a protein that is produced chiefly by monocytes and
macrophages in response especially to endotoxins and
that mediates inflammation and induces the destruction
of some tumor cells and the activation of white blood
cells
Tumor necrosis factor
(cachectin, interleukin-1, interleukin-6, interferon-y); a
hormone-like protein that releases fat from fat stores,
reduces the concentration of enzymes required for the
production and storage of fat & induces a stage of
anorexia
