Abstract

Background and aim: The 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.

Methods: The 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.

Results: A 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.

Conclusion: The current study revealed that applying GLIM criteria had satisfactory validity in diagnosing hospital malnutrition in non-critically ill hospitalized patients.

期刊介绍: No subject pertains more to human life than nutrition. The aim of Frontiers in Nutrition is to integrate major scientific disciplines in this vast field in order to address the most relevant and pertinent questions and developments. Our ambition is to create an integrated podium based on original research, clinical trials, and contemporary reviews to build a reputable knowledge forum in the domains of human health, dietary behaviors, agronomy & 21st century food science. Through the recognized open-access Frontiers platform we welcome manuscripts to our dedicated sections relating to different areas in the field of nutrition with a focus on human health. Specialty sections in Frontiers in Nutrition include, for example, Clinical Nutrition, Nutrition & Sustainable Diets, Nutrition and Food Science Technology, Nutrition Methodology, Sport & Exercise Nutrition, Food Chemistry, and Nutritional Immunology. Based on the publication of rigorous scientific research, we thrive to achieve a visible impact on the global nutrition agenda addressing the grand challenges of our time, including obesity, malnutrition, hunger, food waste, sustainability and consumer health.
