A Critical Review of Multimodal Interventions for Cachexia

Clare McKeaveney et al.

Summary: The review highlighted the lack of standardized treatments for cachexia or severe wasting and the need for multimodal interventions in addressing these conditions. While the studies showed some improvements in body composition, nutrition, biomarkers, and functionality in treatment groups, caution is required due to the heterogenous nature of interventions and small sample sizes. Overall, there is support for the role of multimodal interventions in treating severe wasting, but further randomized controlled trials with a powered sample size and sufficient interaction period are necessary to determine their effectiveness.
