PURPOSE
To explore the association between risk of malnutrition as well as current body mass index (BMI) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in elderly men and women from the general population.
METHODS
In a cross-sectional population survey including 1,632 men and 1,654 women aged 65 to 87 years from the municipality of Tromsø, Norway, we assessed HRQoL by using the EuroQol (EQ-5D) instrument in three risk groups of malnutrition and in different categories of BMI. The Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool ('MUST') was used to evaluate the risk of malnutrition.
RESULTS
We found a significant reduction in HRQoL with an increasing risk of malnutrition, and this was more pronounced in men than in women. The relationship between BMI and HRQoL was dome shaped, with the highest score values in the BMI category being 25-27.5 kg/m(2).
CONCLUSIONS
HRQoL was significantly reduced in elderly men and women at risk of malnutrition. The highest HRQoL was seen in moderately overweight individuals.
目的
探讨一般人群中老年人营养不良风险以及当前体重指数（BMI）与健康相关生活质量（HRQoL）之间的关系。
方法
在一项横断面人群调查中，包括来自挪威特罗姆瑟市 65 至 87 岁的 1632 名男性和 1654 名女性，我们使用欧洲五维健康量表（EQ-5D）工具评估了营养不良风险和不同 BMI 类别中的 HRQoL。使用营养不良通用筛查工具（MUST）评估营养不良风险。
结果
我们发现随着营养不良风险的增加，HRQoL 显著下降，且男性比女性更为明显。BMI 与 HRQoL 之间呈拱形关系，BMI 类别在 25-27.5 kg/m(2) 之间得分最高。
结论
营养不良风险的老年男性和女性的 HRQoL 显著降低。体重适中的个体 HRQoL 最高。
