In plain English

Postoperative gastric cancer patients who follow a personalized digital exercise and nutrition program have better health outcomes than those who receive standard care.

See the scientific wording

A personalized digital exercise and nutrition rehabilitation program improves health outcomes in postoperative patients with gastric cancer compared to standard care.

Why this might work

When patients eat enough protein after stomach surgery, their muscles stop breaking down and start rebuilding. This keeps their body strong and reduces harmful inflammation. A stronger body can handle chemotherapy sooner and with fewer side effects, which lowers the risk of hospital readmission and improves survival.

What the research says

3 studies
  1. Study: Effectiveness of a Personalized Digital Exercise and Nutrition Rehabilitation Program in Postoperative Patients With Gastric Cancer: Randomized Controlled Trial

    The study gave some patients a fancy app with exercise and diet plans, and others just got regular advice. After a year, both groups felt and looked about the same—so the app didn’t help people get healthier than standard care.

  2. Study: A Multicenter Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial of a Digital Symptom Management Platform (WECARE) for Gastric Cancer Survivors

    The digital program didn't make gastric cancer patients feel significantly better than regular care after six months, even though they liked using it and felt more in control. So, it doesn't prove the program works better.
