Fig. 1. Experimental design of the conducted study. Twenty patients that have undergone gastrointestinal (GI) surgery resection were unrolled in the study. Patients were assigned randomly to either IMM group (immuno supplementation+physiotherapy) or CTL group (isocaloric supplementation+ physiotherapy). Various data were collected during the study at 3 different time points including M1: 3 days post-surgery; M2: day of discharge (1 week post-surgery); and M3: follow-up day (3 weeks post-surgery). BMI = body mass index; BMR = basal metabolic rate; CRP = C-reactive protein.
