McMillan D, Preston T, Fearon K, Burns H, Slater C, Shenkin A
Nutrition . 1994 May; 10(3):232-40. PMID: 7919675
It has been proposed that the increase in amino acid flux and derived protein synthesis rates observed in weight-losing cancer patients may contribute to an ongoing negative energy balance. The...

Clin Nutr . 1994 Apr; 13(2):85-9. PMID: 16843365
Reduced food intake is probably the major cause of continuing weight loss in cancer patients. Therefore, agents which stimulate food intake may be of significant benefit to such patients. To...
