MiR-22-3p as a promising predictor of nutritional deficiencies in patients with head and neck cancer subjected to intensity-modulated radiation therapy

Abstract Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the seventh most common cancer globally, with 20–60% of patients experiencing nutritional deficiencies. Recent studies indicate that microRNAs (miRNAs) may serve as molecular markers for malnutrition. This study evaluated miR-22-3p as a potential predictor of n...
