Description: Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) often receive medical nutrition therapy (MNT) during intensive remission-induction treatment. Since little is known about changes in nutritional status, specifically body composition, in this patient population, these changes and their associations with physical and clinical outcomes were assessed.In this multicenter prospective observational study, newly diagnosed AML/MDS patients who received intensive remission-induction chemotherapy, routine dietary counseling by a dietician and MNT immediately upon inadequate nutritional intake, were included. At treatment initiation and discharge, nutritional status, including Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA)-scores and body composition, physical outcomes and fatigue were assessed. Associations of nutritional status/body composition with physical outcomes, fatigue, fever duration, number of complications, time to neutrophil engraftment and hospital length of stay (LOS) (collected from medical records) were examined using multiple regression analysis.In >91% of the 126 AML/MDS patients included, nutritional intake was adequate, with 61% receiving MNT. Nevertheless, body weight decreased significantly (p
