of cancer patients suffer from diverse degrees of malnutrition, depending on tumor subtype, location and staging and treatment strategy. Malnutrition is asso- ciated with increased morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. Both the high prevalence and prognostic signifi- cance of malnutrition imply the need for accurate malnu- trition screening in cancer patients, which could select those patients at risk of nutritional derangements who would benefit from nutritional therapy. Patient-gener- ated subjective global screening (VSG-GP) remains the reference malnutrition screening method, but its com- plexity and training requirements prevent wider applica- bility by oncologists. Thus, easier, more clinic-based mal- nutrition screening tools are required for cancer patients. In this article we propose a basic screening tool based on three items: weight loss, changes in physical activity and decrease in food intake. Two affirmative responses out of the three questions is considered as a positive response, and would prompt expert nutritional assessment. RESULTS: Our screening interview showed positive cor- relation with VSG-GP (ROC 0.85, p<0.001) and allowed for a rapid and accurate identification of patients with cancer-related malnutrition.
