In this regard, recently Argiles JM et al. [119] developed and validated a tool to assess the different stages of cachexia, which includes several important parameters of inflammation/metabolic disturbances/immunosuppression (i.e., CRP, IL-6, albumin, lactate, triglycerides, urea, hemoglobin, ROS, and glucose tolerance test/insulinemia). The gene discussed is IL6; the disease is Cachexia.
