Popis: BackgroundMalnutrition is an often unrecognized problem, but it is common in older patients and leads to adverse outcomes.AimsThe purpose of this study is to analyze the prevalence of the risk of undernutrition in elderly patients and the correlation between CGA and nutritional status, and to determine the nutritional status of elderly patients.MethodsThis is a real-world cross-sectional study of continuously enrolled elderly patients aged 65 years or older with a complete CGA database. CGA inventory was prepared by compiling and screening general information, body composition and blood biochemical results. MNA was also conducted for each elderly patient to screen for malnutrition. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to determine the association between the CGA and nutritional assessment.ResultThe average age of the 211 selected elderly patients (160 men and 51 women) was 79.60 ± 9.24 years, and their ages ranged from 65 to 96 years. After controlling for confounders, patients with a history of PUD (OR = 2.353, p = 0.044), increased ADLs & IADLs scores (OR = 1.051, p = 0.042) or GDS scores (OR = 6.078, p
