Methods Prospective clinical trial.
Participants 110 adults with colorectal cancer undergoing chemotherapy.
Interventions Individualised nutritional support (education, encouragement and recipes) and "afterwards doctors administered parenteral or enteral nutrition at 70‐80% of requirements" versus normal diet.
Outcomes Body weight, serum albumin and prealbumin.
Notes The description of the intervention is confusing in that it describes recipes but also indicates that the doctors administered enteral and parenteral nutrition. Clarification has been sought from authors but no reply received.
