Project description:BackgroundThe early recognition of malnutrition is essential for improving the prognosis of patients with Crohn's disease (CD). The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria represent a new consensus for the diagnosis of malnutrition but need to be validated in CD. The aims were to explore the related factors of malnutrition in CD and explore whether GLIM-positive patients who did not meet the Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) would benefit from nutritional treatment.MethodsThis study retrospectively enrolled patients with CD at the Gastroenterology Department of Xiangya Hospital Central South University between March 2020 and March 2021. After bioelectrical impedance analysis, all patients underwent nutritional screening and diagnosis using the NRS 2002 and GLIM criteria, respectively. Multivariable analysis was performed to evaluate risk factors related to malnutrition in patients with CD. A multivariable Cox hazard model was used to assess the association between nutritional therapy and prognostic outcomes.ResultsOf the 118 patients included, fifty were classified as having a high malnutrition risk according to the NRS 2002, while 76 were diagnosed with malnutrition by the GLIM criteria. Multivariate analysis showed that a high malnutrition risk was independently associated with the L4 phenotype [odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval (CI)) = 4.718 (1.108, 20.10), p = 0.036] and Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) [OR (95% CI) = 1.018 (1.007, 1.029), p = 0.002] based on the NRS 2002. The age at onset [OR (95% CI) = 0.828 (0.699, 0.980), p = 0.028] and CDAI [OR (95% CI) = 1.111 (1.034, 1.195), p = 0.004] were regarded as independent risk factors related to malnutrition, as determined by the GLIM criteria. Among 26 GLIM+/NRS- patients, significantly more patients who received nutritional support achieved 6-week remission than patients who did not (100 vs. 71.4%, p < 0.05). The 6-week remission risk in patients treated with nutrition therapy was more than 4-fold higher than those without nutritional therapy.ConclusionThe GLIM criteria could diagnose more malnourished patients with CD who are not positively screened by the NRS 2002, among whom nutritional support therapy would be beneficial for disease remission. The new criteria should be more appropriate for assessing the nutritional status of patients with CD.

Project description:ObjectiveThe Global Leader Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria have been recommended for malnutrition diagnosis recently, for which the first step is malnutrition risk screening with any validated tool. This study aims to investigate the incidence of nutritional risk and malnutrition in Crohn's disease inpatients and compare the suitability of Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002) and Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) as the first-step screening tool for GLIM criteria.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of Crohn's disease inpatients in our hospital from August 2016 to December 2019. NRS-2002 and MUST were used for nutritional screening at the time of admission. GLIM and Patient Generated-Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) were used for malnutrition assessment, respectively. Patients without nutritional risk screened by NRS-2002 but with malnutrition risk screened by MUST were especially screened out. The appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI), fat-free mass index (FFMI), body fat percent (BFP), and body cell mass (BCM) were measured by the Biospace Inbody S10 composition analyzer.ResultsA total of 146 Crohn's disease patients were enrolled, of which 62.3 and 89.7% had nutritional or malnutrition risk according to NRS-2002 and MUST, respectively. The prevalence of malnutrition assessed by GLIM was 59.6% (87 cases) and 82.2% (120 cases) when NRS-2002 and MUST were used as the first step of GLIM respectively. Meanwhile, 99 patients (67.8%) had malnutrition when assessed by PG-SGA. There were 41 patients who were not at nutritional risk according to NRS-2002 but were at malnutrition risk determined by MUST. At last, 33 patients were GLIM-defined, and 16 patients were PG-SGA-defined malnutrition among the 41 patients.ConclusionThe nutritional risk or malnutrition is common in Crohn's disease inpatients. It is recommended to use a variety of nutritional assessment tools for Crohn's disease inpatients. MUST can be used as a good supplement for the patients with a score of NRS-2002 lower than 3 in order to decrease the miss rate of GLIM-defined malnutrition.

Project description:The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) is a new approach established for the assessment of malnutrition. This study aimed to validate the GLIM for the diagnosis of malnutrition in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Saudi Arabia, using the Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) as a reference. In addition, the association between the GLIM criteria and vascular complications in those patients was examined. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 101 patients with T2DM. The level of agreement between the GLIM and SGA tools was calculated using the kappa coefficient (κ). A receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the GLIM. In addition, binary logistic regression was performed to investigate the association between each GLIM criterion and T2DM vascular complications. According to both the GLIM and the SGA, malnutrition was found in 15.8% and 17.8% of patients, respectively. The GLIM criteria achieved a very good level of accuracy (AUC = 0.877). The agreement between the tools was substantial (κ = 0.778). The 'disease/inflammation' criterion of the GLIM was significantly associated with macrovascular complications. To conclude, the GLIM criteria for diagnosis of malnutrition presented satisfactory levels of validity, and as such are acceptable for assessing the nutritional status of patients with T2DM.

Project description:Background and Aims: Malnutrition is a condition that has a great impact on oncology patients. Poor nutritional status is often associated with increased morbidity and mortality, increased toxicity, and reduced tolerance to chemotherapy, among other complications. The recently developed GLIM criteria for malnutrition aim to homogenize its diagnosis, considering the baseline disease status. We aimed to evaluate the performance of these new criteria for the prediction of complications and mortality in patients with cancer. Methods: This work is a prospective, single-center study. All outpatients under active treatment for head and neck, upper gastrointestinal, and colorectal tumors between February and October 2020 were recruited. These patients were followed up for 6 months, assessing the occurrence of complications and survival based on GLIM diagnoses of malnutrition. Results: We enrolled 165 outpatients, 46.66% of whom were malnourished. During the 6-month follow-ups, patients with malnutrition (46.7%, according to GLIM criteria) had a ~3-fold increased risk of hospital admission (p < 0.001) and occurrence of severe infection (considered as those requiring hospitalization, intravenous antibiotics, and/or drainage by interventional procedures) (p = 0.002). Similarly, malnourished patients had a 3.5-fold increased risk of poor pain control and a 4.4-fold increased need for higher doses of opioids (both p < 0.001). They also had a 2.6-fold increased risk of toxicity (p = 0.044) and a 2.5-fold increased likelihood of needing a dose decrease or discontinuation of cancer treatment (p = 0.011). The 6-month survival of malnourished patients was significantly lower (p = 0.023) than in non-malnourished patients. Conclusions: Diagnoses of malnutrition according to the GLIM criteria in oncology patients undergoing active treatment predict increased complications and worse survival at 6-month follow-ups, making them a useful tool for assessing the nutritional status of oncology patients.

Project description:ObjectiveMalnutrition is a nutritional disorder and common syndrome that has a high incidence and is easily ignored in hospitalized older patients. It can lead to multiple poor prognoses, such as frailty. Early identification and correct evaluation of possible malnutrition and frailty are essential to improve clinical outcomes in older patients. Therefore, our objective was to explore the applicability and effectiveness of the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria for identifying malnutrition in older patients.MethodsIn total, 223 participants aged ≥60 years were involved. Nutrition was evaluated using the Mini Nutritional Assessment-Full Form (MNA-FF) and GLIM criteria, which adopt a two-step procedure. The first step was to use three different methods for the screening of nutritional risk: the Nutrition Risk Screening 2002, the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form (MNA-SF), and the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool. The second step was to link a combination of at least one phenotypical criterion and one etiological criterion to diagnose malnutrition. The Clinical Frailty Scale was used to assess frailty. Sensitivity, specificity, Youden index, kappa values, and positive and negative predictive values were used to evaluate the validity of the GLIM criteria. Logistic regression models were used to assess whether there was a correlation between malnutrition, as defined by the GLIM criteria, and frailty.ResultsWe found that 32.3-49.8% of our patient sample were at risk of malnutrition based on the GLIM diagnosis and using the three different screening tools; 19.3-27.8% of the patients were malnourished. GLIM criteria with MNA-SF as a diagnostic validation and MNA-FF as a reference showed high consistency (K = 0.629; p < 0.001), sensitivity (90.5%), and specificity (86.4%). Logistic regression analysis showed that malnutrition, using MNA-SF with the GLIM criteria, was relevant for a higher likelihood of frailty (OR = 1.887; 95% CI 1.184-2.589).ConclusionsThe incidence of GLIM-defined malnutrition was 19.3-27.8% using different screening tools. The consistency between the GLIM criteria using the MNA-SF and the MNA methods was high. Malnutrition, as diagnosed by the GLIM criteria with MNA-SF, was significantly correlated with frailty. GLIM criteria with MNA-SF may be a more reliable malnutrition assessment process in older inpatients.

Project description:BackgroundMalnutrition defined by the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) has been associated with cancer mortality, but the effect is limited and inconsistent. We performed this meta-analysis aiming to assess this relationship in patients with cancer.MethodsWe systematically searched Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, CINAHL, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases from January 1, 2019, to July 1, 2022. Studies evaluating the prognostic effect of GLIM-defined malnutrition on cancer survival were included. A fixed-effect model was fitted to estimate the combined hazard ratio (HR) with a 95% CI. Heterogeneity of studies was analyzed using the I2 statistic. Quality assessment were performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) tool.ResultsThe search strategy identified 4378 articles in all databases combined. Nine studies (8829 patients) meeting the inclusion criteria were included for quantitative analysis. Meta-analysis revealed significant associations between GLIM-defined pooled malnutrition (HR = 1.75; 95% CI, 1.43-2.15), moderate malnutrition (HR = 1.44; 95% CI, 1.29-1.62), and severe malnutrition (HR = 1.79; 95% CI, 1.58-2.02) with all-cause mortality. Sensitivity analysis supported the robustness of these associations. The between-study heterogeneity was low (all I2 < 50%), and study quality assessed with NOS was high (all scores > 6). The evidence quality according to the GRADE tool was very low.ConclusionsOur meta-analysis suggests a significant negative association of malnutrition, as defined by the GLIM, with overall survival in patients with cancer. However, definitive conclusions cannot be made, owing to the low quality of the source data.

Project description:BackgroundThe proposal of the global leadership initiative in malnutrition (GLIM) criteria has received great attention from clinicians. The criteria are mainly used in the research environment and have the potential to be widely used in the clinic in the future. However, the prevalence of malnutrition and risk of future malnutrition based on a current diagnosis of malnutrition are worth exploring.MethodsA systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library was performed from the earliest available date to 1 February 2023. According to the diagnostic criteria of the GLIM, we analysed the prevalence of malnutrition by directly adopting the GLIM criteria for diagnosis without a previous nutritional risk screening (one-step approach) and by adopting the GLIM criteria for diagnosis after a nutritional risk screening (two-step approach). The main outcome was the prevalence of malnutrition based on the one-and two-step approaches. Secondary outcomes were the future risk of malnutrition based on the GLIM diagnosis, including mortality within and beyond 1 year. primary outcomes were pooled using random-effects models, and secondary outcomes are presented as hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).ResultsA total of 64 articles were included in the study, including a total of 47,654 adult hospitalized patients and 15,089 malnourished patients based on the GLIM criteria. Malnutrition was diagnosed by the one-step approach in 18 studies and by the two-step approach in 46 studies. The prevalence of malnutrition diagnosed by the one-and two-step approaches was 53% (95% CI, 42%-64%) and 39% (95% CI, 0.35%-0.43%), respectively. The prevalence of malnutrition diagnosed by the GLIM criteria after a nutritional risk screening was quite different; the prevalence of malnutrition diagnosed by the Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS2002) GLIM tool was 35% (95% CI, 29%-40%); however, the prevalence of malnutrition diagnosed by the Mini Nutrition Assessment (MNA) GLIM tool was 48% (95% CI, 35%-62%). Among the disease types, the prevalence of malnutrition in cancer patients was 44% (95% CI, 36%-52%), while that in acute and critically ill patients was 44% (95% CI, 33%-56%). The prevalence in patients in internal medicine wards was 40% (95% CI, 34%-45%), while that in patients in surgical wards was 47% (95% CI, 30%-64%). In addition, the mortality risk within 1 year (HR, 2.62; 95% CI, 1.95-3.52; I2 = 77.1%) and beyond 1 year (HR, 2.04; 95% CI, 1.70-2.45; I2 = 59.9%) of patients diagnosed with malnutrition by the GLIM criteria was double that of patients with normal nutrition.ConclusionThe prevalence of malnutrition diagnosed by the GLIM criteria after a nutritional risk screening was significantly lower than the prevalence of malnutrition diagnosed directly by the GLIM criteria. In addition, the mortality risk was significantly greater among malnourished patients assessed by the GLIM criteria.Systematic review registration: identifier CRD42023398454.

Project description:BackgroundChina is a region with a high incidence of tuberculosis, and the incidence of IBD has also been rising rapidly in recent years. Differentiating Crohn's disease(CD) from intestinal tuberculosis (ITB) has become a very challenging issue. We aimed to develop and assess a diagnostic nomogram to differentiate between CD and ITB to improve the accuracy and practicability of the model.MethodsA total of 133 patients (CD 90 and ITB 43) were analyzed retrospectively. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was included to determine the independent predictive factors and establish the regression equation. On this basis, the nomogram prediction model was constructed. The discrimination, calibration and clinical efficiency of the nomogram were assessed using area under the curve(AUC), C-index, calibration curve, decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curve.ResultsT-SPOT positive, cobblestone appearance, comb sign and granuloma were significant predictors in differentiating CD from ITB. Base on the above independent predictors, a diagnostic nomogram was successfully established. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy of the prediction model are 94.4%, 93.0%, 94.0% respectively. The AUC and the C-index of the prediction model are both 0.988, which suggest that the model had a good discrimination power. The calibration curve indicated a high calibration degree of the prediction model. The DCA and clinical impact curve indicated a good clinical efficiency of the prediction model which could bring clinical benefits.ConclusionA nomogram prediction model for distinguishing CD from ITB was developed and assessed, with high discrimination, calibration and clinical efficiency. It can be used as an accurate and convenient diagnostic tool to distinguish CD from ITB, facilitating clinical decision-making.

Project description:Background and aimThe Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) recently proposed a new malnutrition diagnostic tool known as the GLIM criteria. The GLIM criteria need confirmed validation before being widely used in each population or healthcare system. This study aimed to investigate the validation of the GLIM criteria for malnutrition diagnosis in hospitalized patients.MethodsThe content validity was assessed by calculating the content validity ratio (CVR) and content validity index (CVI). Subjective global assessment (SGA) is considered the reference tool to diagnose malnutrition in concurrent validation. In addition, the Kuder-Richardson 20 was used to evaluate the reliability of the GLIM criteria. Furthermore, hospital mortality, length of hospitalization (LOS), prolonged hospital stays (LOS >6 days), 30-day hospital readmission, and 30- and 60-day mortality were identified as malnutrition-related outcomes in predictive validity.ResultsA total of 332 adult/elderly hospitalized patients (median age: 58 (IQR: 24.7), 60.5% men) were enrolled to present the study. Appling GLIM criteria by considering the calf circumference < 31 cm in both genders or mid-upper arm (MUAC) < 23 cm in men and MUAC <22 cm in women as reduced muscle mass had an appropriate accuracy (84.6 and 83.4%, respectively), good ability to distinguish malnourished patients (AUC ROC: 0.85 and 0.83, respectively), satisfactory sensitivity (89.58 and 84.02%, respectively), and satisfactory specificity (81 and 83%, respectively) compared to the SGA tool. Furthermore, the reliability of the GLIM criteria for malnutrition diagnosis in hospitalized patients was acceptable in all 3 applied approaches (KR-20 > 0.5). The malnutrition diagnosed by GLIM criteria could significantly predict the odds of prolonged hospital stays, 30-day hospital readmission, and 60-day mortality, while it had no significant association with the risk of hospital mortality.ConclusionThe current study revealed that applying GLIM criteria had satisfactory validity in diagnosing hospital malnutrition in non-critically ill hospitalized patients.
