Abstract
Background and objectives: Malnutrition is associated with a higher risk of osteoporosis. We aim to assess the relationship between serum albumin with geriatric nutritional risk index and osteopenia in Chinese elderly men.
Methods and study design: This is a nested case-control study from a prospective cohort enrolled 1109 individuals who were followed for seven years. Demographic data, medical history, signs and symptoms, and laboratory parameters were collected and analysed. Nutritional status and Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) were assessed. The nutrition-related indexes predictive value for osteopenia development was analyzed through multivariate Cox regression analysis and by creating a receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), calculating the area under the curve (AUC). Kaplan-Meier (K-M) method was further used to find the nutritional status level in the elderly men.
Results: The ALB and GNRI correlated with the risk of osteopenia in Chinese elderly men. After adjusting for all covariates, people with higher ALB level (HR: 0.821; 95% CI: 0.790-0.852) and higher GNRI score (HR: 0.889; 95% CI: 0.869-0.908) had a smaller risk of osteopenia. ROC analysis showed that the AUC for ALB was 0.729 (p<0.05) and for the GNRI score was 0.731 (p<0.05). K-M curve indicated a significant difference in ALB level (p<0.001) and GNRI score (p<0.001) in the respective subgroups.
Conclusions: This study found that lower ALB level and lower GNRI score are associated with a higher prevalence of osteopenia among elderly men in China.
期刊介绍：
The aims of the Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition
(APJCN) are to publish high quality clinical nutrition relevant research findings which can build the capacity of
clinical nutritionists in the region and enhance the practice of human nutrition and related disciplines for health
promotion and disease prevention. APJCN will publish
original research reports, reviews, short communications
and case reports. News, book reviews and other items will
also be included. The acceptance criteria for all papers are
the quality and originality of the research and its significance to our readership. Except where otherwise stated,
manuscripts are peer-reviewed by at least two anonymous
reviewers and the Editor. The Editorial Board reserves the
right to refuse any material for publication and advises
that authors should retain copies of submitted manuscripts
and correspondence as material cannot be returned. Final
acceptance or rejection rests with the Editorial Board
