The Combination of Handgrip Strength and CONUT Predicts Overall Survival in Patients with Gastrointestinal Cancer: A Multicenter Cohort Study

The controlled nutritional status score (CONUT) and handgrip strength (HGS) were both predictive indexes for the prognosis of cancers. However, the combination of CONUT and HGS for predicting the prognosis of gastrointestinal cancer had not been developed. This study aimed to explore the combination of CONUT and HGS as the potential predictive prognosis in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer.
