Relationship of phase angle with postoperative pneumonia and survival prognosis in patients with esophageal cancer: A retrospective cohort study
Low PhA was a risk factor for postoperative pneumonia in patients who had undergone esophagectomy and was associated with poor survival prognosis. A decrease in PhA during the preoperative period was a significant poor prognostic factor. Increasing physical activity before surgery may lead to an increase in PhA. Thus, it is important to measure and evaluate PhA changes sequentially in patients with esophageal cancer.
