| Research Abstract |
The relation between plasma ghrelin levels and QOL scores in patients with advanced lung cancer who was received chemotherapy was evaluated. In patients with poor QOL scores after chemotherapy, plasma levels of ghrelin were significantly lowered compared with the those of patients with good QOL scores(poor QOL 17.0±7.9 fmol/ml vs good QOL 6.3±2.2 fmol/ml, p = 0.016).
