Abstract:
Objective To investigate the predictive value of the prognostic nutritional index(PNI)in all-cause mortality in pa-tients with acute and critical illness.Methods Acute and critically ill patients admitted to the Department of Emergency,Beijing Chao-yang Hospital,Capital Medical University,from March to July 2021 were selected as study subjects,and the relevant clinical data within 24h of their admission to the emergency department were collected and analyzed descriptively.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve of PNI was drawn with all-cause mortality of patients within 28days as the endpoint,and the patients were divided into high PNI and low PNI groups according to the optimal cut-off value,and the clinical characteristics of the two groups were compared.Patients were divided into survival and death groups according to whether they died within 28days,and the clinical characteristics of the two groups were compared,and univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the risk factors for all-cause mortality within 28days in patients with acute and critical illness.Results A total of 603 patients were included,and the optimal cut-off value of PNI was 43.825,according to which all patients were divided into the high PNI group(n=334)and low PNI group(n=269),and it was found that the proportion of patients who all-cause mortality within 28days was significantly higher in the low PNI group than in the PNI group(P＜0.05).All patients died within 28days of admission to the emergency department in 127 cases,and the pro-portion of malnourished patients was significantly higher in the death group than that in the survival group(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that malnutrition at admission to the emergency department screened by PNI was an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality within 28days in patients with acute and critical illness(OR=1.805,95％CI:1.157-2.817,P=0.009),and advanced age,low body mass index,and low hemoglobin levels were also independent risk factors for all-cause mortality within 28days.Conclu-sion Patients with acute and critical illness are at high risk of malnutrition,and malnutrition at admission to the emergency department,advanced age,low body mass index,and low hemoglobin levels screened by PNI are independent risk factors for all-cause mortality with-in 28 days.
