Acinar cell carcinoma of the pancreas: is the absence of neuroendocrine component related to a more malignant behavior?
It is possible that the absence of neuroendocrine component may be related to a less favorable outcome and adjuvant therapy may be necessary. Due to the rarity of this pancreatic tumor, this relationship remains to be confirmed with a multicentric study including a larger number of patients.
The results showed that nutritional assessment can be employed with community-dwelling older adults. In particular, prefrailty and body mass index were key factors that affected nutritional status in older adults.
