Demographics
age, age at diagnosis, diagnosis, cancer recurrence or not, treatment status, gender, education, parents' education, height, and body weight.
Lab data
protein profile (albumin), lipid profile (TG, cholesterol, LDH, HDH), liver profile (GOT, GPT), CBC profile (HB, RBC, WBC/DC, platelet), renal profile (BUN, CRE), inflammation index (CRP), and sugar profile (Glucose-AC and HbA1C) at diagnosis and at study baseline.
Medication dosage
accumulated corticosteroid dosage, accumulated radiation dosage.
Cachexia assessment
This assessment includes weight loss grading and muscle power grading. Weight loss grading uses a 5x5 matrix to grade the patient's level of cancer-associated weight loss.Grade 0 = complete paralysis; Grade 1 = flicker of contraction present; Grade 2 = active movement with gravity eliminated; Grade 3 = active movement against gravity; Grade 4 = active movement against gravity and some resistance described as poor, fair, or moderate strength; and Grade 5 = normal power.
Inbody S10
The InBody S10 BIA device measures resistance at six frequencies (1, 5, 50, 250, 500, and 1000 KHz).

Multidimensional Fatigue Scale (MFS):
MFS versions are designed for ages 5-18. The parent proxy reports, which include children 2-4 years of age (toddler), are used to assess the parent's perception of their child's fatigue. The instrument consists of 18 items. Patients are assessed on how often a particular problem occurred in the past month by using a 5-point Likert scale from 0 to 4 and rescaled to 0-100, so that higher scores indicate fewer symptoms of fatigue.
Symptom Distress Scale (SDS)
The SDS is a 5-point mixed-response scale with 13 items that measure symptom distress. Total scores range from 13 to 65; higher scores indicate more severe symptom distress during the past week.

Exercise Involvement Scale (EIS)
Exercise involvement is calculated by the equation: Exercise Involvement Score = exercise frequency x (exercise intensity + exercise duration). The total score represents an individual's level of exercise involvement. There are six graded response options, ranging from 1 (zero) to 6 (5 or more times a week). A higher score indicates more frequent exercise during the past week.

Visual analogue scale for dietary intake (VAS-DI)
Patients are asked to answer the question: "If you consider that, at times when you are in good health, you eat 10 out of 10, how much do you currently eat on a scale from 0 to 10?" A response of 0 would mean eating "nothing at all" and 10 would be eating "as usual." For patients who do not understand this question, the researcher helps by adding: "How do you currently eat at this moment: a quarter of the usual amount, half of the usual amount, or three-quarters of the usual amount?" Patients tick a 100-mm line traced on paper to answer the inquiry "How much do you currently eat on a scale from 0 'nothing' (far left side of the line) to 10 'as usual' (far right side of the line)?" The left extremity of the line is anchored by "I eat nothing at all" (0 cm), the middle by "I eat half the usual amount" (5 cm), and the right extremity by "I eat as usual" (10 cm).
