Abstract

A possible relationship between the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form (MNA-SF) and visceral fat thickness (VFT) in 390 participants 60 years and older was investigated. VFT was measured by ultrasonography as the distance between the inner wall of the rectus abdominis and the anterior abdominal aortic wall. The risk of visceral obesity increased with the increase in MNA-SF values independent of age, gender, diabetes mellitus, and alcohol history (odds ratio = 1.534, 95% CI 1.176–2.002, P = .002). The optimal cut-off point of the MNA-SF to predict visceral obesity was measured as 12.5 (area under the curve = 0.617, 95% CI 0.558–0.676). Our findings suggest that the MNA-SF may be useful in visceral obesity screening.

可用于筛查内脏肥胖症的简单量表

本研究调查了 390 名 60 岁及以上参与者的迷你营养评估简表（MNA-SF）与内脏脂肪厚度（VFT）之间可能存在的关系。内脏脂肪厚度是通过超声波测量腹直肌内壁与腹主动脉前壁之间的距离。内脏肥胖的风险随着 MNA-SF 值的增加而增加，与年龄、性别、糖尿病和酗酒史无关（几率比 = 1.534，95% CI 1.176-2.002，P = .002）。据测定，MNA-SF 预测内脏肥胖的最佳临界点为 12.5（曲线下面积 = 0.617，95% CI 0.558-0.676）。我们的研究结果表明，MNA-SF 可用于内脏肥胖筛查。

期刊介绍： Topics in Clinical Nutrition (TICN) is a peer-reviewed, quarterly journal designed as a resource for the continuing education and clinical practice of dietitians and nutritionists. Each issue addresses topics of interest primarily to dietitians and nutritionists, students and interns in professional training programs and other health care personnel involved in the nutritional care of patients. Articles include translational research reports (work that applies new knowledge to practical effect), practice projects, evidence-based literature reviews, case studies and book reviews, and articles that highlight education theory and applied research which share the tools and techniques of nutrition and dietetics education.
