Summary
This study tracked 69 adults with digestive cancers to see how their sense of taste and smell changed after their first round of chemotherapy. Researchers found that many patients reported liking fewer foods, which can lead to poor nutrition. The goal was to better understand these sensory changes so that future dietary support can be more effective.
