Abstract

We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of using handgrip strength (HGS) in determining malnutrition in adolescents. Sixty-two participants (10–18 years of age), 33 malnourished and 29 healthy participants, were recruited. A questionnaire was administered, and anthropometric parameters and HGS were measured. Dominant HGS was different in children with (11.6 ± 5.8 nkgF) or without (21.6 ± 5.7 kgF) malnutrition ( P < .001). Body mass index, triceps/biceps skinfold, neck/waist/wrist circumferences, and arm muscle area were correlated with HGS. According to receiver operating characteristic analysis, dominant (area under the curve [AUC]: 85.9%), and nondominant HGSs (AUC: 83.9%) were possible predictors for malnutrition. HGS may be used as a tool for malnutrition assessment in adolescents.

用握力测定青少年营养不良的有效性评价

我们的目的是评估使用握力(HGS)来确定青少年营养不良的有效性。招募了62名参与者(10-18岁)，33名营养不良参与者和29名健康参与者。进行问卷调查，测量人体测量参数和HGS。营养不良组(11.6±5.8 kgF)和非营养不良组(21.6±5.7 kgF) HGS的显性差异有统计学意义(P <措施)。体重指数、肱三头肌/肱二头肌皮褶、颈/腰/腕围和手臂肌肉面积与HGS相关。根据受试者工作特征分析，显性hgs(曲线下面积[AUC]: 85.9%)和非显性hgs (AUC: 83.9%)可能是营养不良的预测因子。HGS可作为青少年营养不良评估的工具。
