Abstract:
Objective:To validate the revised BMI-MNA-SF and CC-MNA-SF with regard to association and agreement with the full MNA(R),considered as gold standard,in geriatric internal medicine patients.Methods:105 cases of hospitalized elderly patients in internal medicine were recruited for the study.The nutritional status correlation and coherence were evaluated with the revised BMI-MNA-SF、CC-MNA-SF and the full MNA(R),respectively.Results:The BMI-MNA-SF and CC-MNA-SF all correlated strongly with the full MNA(R) (Pearson's correlation coefficient r=0.9080,0.8381 respectively;P ＜ 0.001).High values of sensitivity,specificity and predictive values were observed for the BMI-MNA-SF and CC-MNA-SF against the full MNA(R) as the dichotomized categorizations "malnourished-at risk of malnutrition" vs "well nourished" and "malnourished" vs "at risk of malnutrition-well nourished" were considered.Most of values of those for CC-MNA-SF are lower slightly than BMI-MNA-SF.Areas under the ROC curves also reached high values (BMI-MNA-SF:0.951 and CC-MNA-SF:0.938 for the first categorization;BMI-MNA-SF:1.000 and CC-MNA-SF:0.985 for the second one) showing both tests excellent accuracy with the full-MNA.The agreement between the MNA-SFs and the ful1-MNA was quantified as the percentage of correct classifications.The BMI-MNA-SF classified 83.81％,correctly and the CC-MNA-SF classified 68.57％ correctly.Malnutrition proportions of subjects were not underestimated by both MNA-SFs.Conclusion:The revised BMI-MNA-SF and CC-MNA-SF are rapid、easy and reliable tools are capable to identify malnourished individuals in internal medicine and those who are at risk of malnutrition.Due to the special characteristics of elderly patients,the CC-MNA-SF is a good option to replace the BMI-MNA-SF when BMI is not available.
