ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition, introduced as a useful method in the diagnosis of malnutrition, is supported by little evidence in hospitalized individuals. Therefore, we reviewed this method with two objectives: 1) to compare the diagnostic accuracy of the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria with the Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment; 2) to determine the prevalence of malnutrition and its associated factors. Methods: Cross-sectional study, conducted with individuals hospitalized between April 2019 and July 2021. Sociodemographic, clinical and anthropometric information was investigated. Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition was the index test and Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment the standard reference to assess malnutrition. For diagnostic accuracy, measurements of sensitivity, specificity, area under the curve and kappa agreement were considered. Results: A total of 105 individuals participated (age 65.9±9.9 years). The prevalence of malnutrition in the total sample was 48.6% and 67.6% according to the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition and Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment criteria, respectively. An association was observed between malnutrition and the variables that stand behind hospitalization, metabolic stress and anthropometric indicators (p<0.05). The comparison showed sensitivity and specificity values for the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria of 67.6% (95% CI: 56.1-77.3) and 91.2% (95% CI: 77.0-96.9) (total sample) and 71.7% (95% CI: 58.4-82.0) and 95.5% (95% CI: 78.2-99.2) (elderly), respectively. An agreement of 49% was observed, raising to 55% when the elderly were assessed separately. Conclusion: The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria presented adequate sensitivity conditions and specificity to diagnose malnutrition, moderate agreement with the reference standard and good applicability in hospitalized patients' clinical practice. Prevalence of malnutrition was high, regardless of the method used, and was associated with the reason for hospitalization, metabolic stress and anthropometric indicators.


RESUMO Objetivo: O Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition, apresentado como um método útil no diagnóstico de desnutrição, possui poucas evidências acerca de indivíduos hospitalizados. Portanto, exploramos esse método com dois objetivos: 1) comparar a acurácia diagnóstica dos critérios Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition com a Avaliação Subjetiva Global Produzida pelo Paciente; 2) determinar a prevalência de desnutrição e seus fatores associados. Métodos: Estudo transversal, realizado com indivíduos hospitalizados entre abril de 2019 a julho de 2021. Informações sociodemográficas, clínicas e antropométricas foram investigadas. Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition foi o index test e Avaliação Subjetiva Global Produzida pelo Paciente a referência padrão para avaliar desnutrição. Para acurácia diagnóstica considerou-se as medições de sensibilidade, especificidade e área sob a curva e concordância kappa. Resultados: Participaram 105 indivíduos (65,9±9,9 anos). A prevalência de desnutrição na amostra total foi de 48,6% e 67,6% de acordo com os critérios Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition e Avaliação Subjetiva Global Produzida pelo Paciente, respectivamente. Associações foram encontradas entre desnutrição e as variáveis motivo de internação, estresse metabólico e indicadores antropométricos (p<0,05). A comparação mostrou valores de sensibilidade e especificidade para os critérios Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition de 67,6% (IC 95%: 56,1-77,3) e 91,2% (IC 95%: 77,0-96,9) (amostra total) e 71,7% (IC 95%: 58,4-82,0) e 95,5% (IC 95%: 78,2-99,2) (idosos), respectivamente. Observou-se concordância de 49,0%, sendo 55,0% quando os idosos foram analisados separadamente. Conclusão: Os critérios Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition apresentaram condições adequadas de sensibilidade e especificidade para diagnosticar desnutrição, concordância moderada com o padrão de referência e boa aplicabilidade na prática clínica em hospitalizados. A prevalência de desnutrição foi elevada, independentemente do método utilizado, e apresentou relação com o motivo de internação, estresse metabólico e indicadores antropométricos.
