CANCER, PNEUMONIA
In adults aged 75 or older with treatable cancer, pneumonia, fractures, and/or urinary-tract infection and at nutritional risk, increased dietary protein intake for 6 months was effective in improving grip strength in comparison with standard care. In addition, the increase in protein intake to 1.3 g/kg/day was found not to impact kidney function.
