The present study aims to evaluate the nutritional status of diabetic patients using Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) tool.
A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted at Endocrine and Medicine Department of Lady Reading Hospital from September 2019 to March 2020. A total of 359 patients diagnosed with Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) were included in the study. The malnutrition status was assessed using SGA, and clinical parameters including albumin and total leukocyte count (TLC).
We have observed mild to moderate malnutrition among 48.2% patients, and severe malnutrition in 10.6% patients as per the SGA scoring. Among the factors associated with nutritional status were BMI (p<0.01), and presence of CAD (DM complication) (p=0.015). As per the correlation analysis, BMI had a significant negative correlation with nutritional status (r=-0.351; p<0.01).
It is concluded from the study results that there is a high prevalence of malnutrition among the enrolled diabetic patients.
本研究旨在使用主观全面评定法(SGA)工具评估糖尿病患者的营养状况。
2019年9月至2020年3月在莱迪德医院内分泌科和内科进行了一项前瞻性横断面研究。共有359例被诊断为2型糖尿病(T2DM)的患者纳入研究。使用SGA评估营养不良状况,并检测包括白蛋白和白细胞总数(TLC)在内的临床参数。
根据SGA评分,我们观察到48.2%的患者存在轻度至中度营养不良,10.6%的患者存在严重营养不良。与营养状况相关的因素包括BMI(p<0.01)和冠心病(糖尿病并发症)的存在(p=0.015)。根据相关性分析,BMI与营养状况呈显著负相关(r=-0.351;p<0.01)。
研究结果表明,纳入研究的糖尿病患者中营养不良的患病率很高。
