Abstract
The development and advancement of malnutrition is associated not only with the progression of hepatic dysfunction, but also with cirrhosis-related complications. However, the prevalence of malnutrition reported in different studies varies widely due to differences in diagnostic methods and patient investigation settings. Therefore, we need to identify malnourished patients promptly and accurately. The purpose of this review was to compare the validity and reliability of nutritional screening tools and to select the most appropriate nutritional risk screening for patients with cirrhosis. We compared nutritional risk screening tools such as the Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002), Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST), Royal Free Hospital-Nutritional Prioritizing Tool (RFH-NPT) and Liver Disease Undernutrition Screening Tool (LDUST). Royal Free Hospital-Nutritional Prioritizing Tool (RFH-NPT) is more feasible to screen cirrhotic patients for nutritional risk, and is highly reproducible, considering the impact of sodium and water retention; so it is practical to screen cirrhotic patients via RFH-NPT for nutritional risk, subsequently, to evaluate the nutritional status of patients with nutritional risk via the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) diagnostic criteria. L3-SMI (third lumbar-skeletal muscle index) can accurately define sarcopenia in cirrhotic patients and also be used for clinical nutritional status assessment.

Abstract
Aims The Royal Free Hospital Nutritional Prioritizing Tool (RFH-NPT), the Liver Disease Undernutrition Screening Tool (LDUST) and Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS2002) were used by nurses to screen, compare, and analyze the nutritional status of patients with liver cirrhosis. The application value of different screening tools was summarized in the nutritional screening of patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods In this study, LDUST, RFH-NPT, and NRS2002 were used by nurses to screen the nutritional status of hospitalized patients with liver cirrhosis within 24-48 h after admission. The study calculated validity indicators such as sensitivity, specificity, the area under the receiver operating curve (AUC), and reliability indicators such as the Kappa coefficient. The efficacy of these screening tools in the nutritional screening of patients with liver cirrhosis was compared. Results Among the 207 patients, LDUST and NRS2002 identified 72.9 % and 23.7 % as undernourished, respectively. The sensitivity of LDUST and NRS2002 were 92.1 % and 30.0 %, respectively. The Kappa value of LDUST and RFH-NPT was 0.620, and the Kappa value of LDUST compared with NRS2002 was 0.144. Conclusion This study shows that the Liver Disease Undernutrition Screening Tool, a special screening tool for patients with liver cirrhosis, has a more reliable screening effect and higher sensitivity than NRS2002. The Liver Disease Undernutrition Screening Tool is recommended for nutritional screening in patients with liver cirrhosis.

Abstract
Malnutrition, sarcopenia (low muscle mass), and physical frailty have gained increasing recognition in candidates for liver transplant (LT) as these conditions can impact postoperative functional capacity. Multidimensional prehabilitation programs have been proposed as a safe intervention in adults awaiting LT but the nutritional pillar of prehabilitation has been understudied. This review summarizes the nutritional recommendations for prehabilitation for individuals with cirrhosis awaiting LT. Three major aspects of nutritional prehabilitation are discussed: (1) Assess: Evaluate nutritional status and assess for malnutrition, sarcopenia, and frailty to guide the nutritional prehabilitation intervention intensity, increasing across universal, targeted, and specialist levels; (2) Intervene: Prescribe a nutritional prehabilitation intervention to meet established nutrition guidelines in cirrhosis with a targeted focus on improving nutritional status and muscle health; (3) Reassess: Follow-up based on the required intensity of nutritional care with as needed intervention adjustment. Topics covered in the review include nutritional care levels for prehabilitation, energy prescriptions across body mass index strata, detailed considerations around protein intake (amount, distribution, and quality), carbohydrate and fat intake, other nutritional considerations, and the potential role of dietary supplements and nutraceuticals. Future research is warranted to more accurately evaluate energy needs, evaluate emerging dietary supplementation strategies, and establish the role of nutraceuticals alongside food-based interventions. While the general principles of nutritional prehabilitation are ready for immediate application, future large-scale randomized controlled trials in this space will help to quantify the benefit that can be gained by transitioning the LT approach from passive "transplant waitlist time" to active "transplant preparation time."

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) is a framework aiming to standardize malnutrition diagnosis. However, it still needs to be validated, in particular for patients with chronic liver disease. This study aimed to validate the GLIM criteria in patients with liver cirrhosis awaiting liver transplant (LTx). METHODS This was a retrospective observational study carried out with adult patients on the waiting list for LTx, consecutively evaluated between 2006 and 2021. The phenotypic criteria were unintentional weight loss, low body mass index, and reduced muscle mass (midarm muscle circumference [MAMC]). The etiologic criteria were high Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) and MELD adjusted for serum sodium (MELD-Na) scores, the Child-Pugh score, low serum albumin, and low food intake and/or assimilation. Forty-three GLIM combinations were tested. Sensitivity (SE), specificity (SP), positive and negative predictive values, and machine learning (ML) techniques were used. Survival analysis with Cox regression was carried out. RESULTS A total of 419 patients with advanced liver cirrhosis were included (median age, 52.0 y [46-59 y]; 69.2% male; 68.8% malnourished according to the Subjective Global Assessment [SGA]). The prevalence of malnutrition by the GLIM criteria ranged from 3.1% to 58.2%, and five combinations had SE or SP >80%. The MAMC as a phenotypic criterion with MELD and MELD-Na as etiologic criteria were predictors of mortality. The MAMC and the presence of any phenotypic criteria associated with liver disease parameters and low food intake or assimilation were associated with malnutrition prediction in ML analysis. CONCLUSIONS The MAMC and liver disease parameters were associated with malnutrition diagnosis by SGA and were also predictors of 1-y mortality in patients with liver cirrhosis awaiting LTx.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The synergistic impact of coexistent malnutrition and sarcopenia on morality in hospitalized patients with decompensated cirrhosis remains elusive. This prospective cohort study aimed to delineate the prevalence concerning coexistence of malnutrition and sarcopenia and the prognosticating role on long-term mortality among cirrhosis. METHODS Adult cirrhotic patients with decompensated episodes between 2019 and 2021 were consecutively enrolled. Malnutrition and sarcopenia were diagnosed according to the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria and the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP2) algorithm, respectively. The entire cohort was divided into three groups: non-malnutrition and non-sarcopenia (NN), malnutrition or sarcopenia, and coexistent malnutrition and sarcopenia (MS). Log-rank test and multivariate Cox regression model were utilized to evaluate survival status and independent risk factors for mortality, respectively. RESULTS Our findings indicated that malnutrition manifested in 44.6% of inpatients with decompensated cirrhosis, while sarcopenia presented in 16.4% of the entire cohort, indicative of a prevalence of 14.7% regarding coexistent malnutrition and sarcopenia. The Kaplan-Meier graphic demonstrated a significant difference regarding survival curves among the three groups, referring to the MS group presented with the lowest survival rate (log-rank test: p < 0.001). Moreover, coexistent malnutrition and sarcopenia were associated with nearly 4 times higher mortality risk (model 1: hazard ratio [HR] = 3.31, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.20-9.13, p = 0.020; model 2: HR = 4.34, 95% CI: 1.52-12.4, p = 0.006) in comparison with patients without any condition (NN group). CONCLUSIONS Malnutrition and sarcopenia had superimposed negative impacts on inpatients with decompensated cirrhosis. It is imperative to identify this vulnerable subset to provide prompt therapeutic intervention for better prognosis.

Liver Disease Undernutrition Screening Tool Questionnaire Predicts Decompensation and Mortality in Cirrhotic Outpatients with Portal Hypertension. Nutrients 2023; 15:3780. [PMID: 37686812 PMCID: PMC10489934 DOI: 10.3390/nu15173780] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous scores are designed to predict outcomes of patients with liver cirrhosis. Our study aimed to evaluate the ability of the Liver Disease Undernutrition Screening Tool (LDUST) in predicting mortality and decompensation in outpatients with clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH). We hypothesized that LDUST could help identify patients in need of nutritional supplementation and intervention. METHODS A prospective study of 57 CSPH patients (36.8% female, mean age: 63.5 ± 9.9 years) with a median follow-up of 41 months was conducted. Baseline liver function, nutrition, and sarcopenia were assessed, alongside LDUST. During follow-up, the occurrence of liver decompensation, hospital admission, need for emergency care, and mortality were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 56.1% of patients were Child A, and the most frequent etiology was alcohol (50.9%). Malnutrition risk according to LDUST raised mortality (HR: 25.96 (1.47-456.78)), decompensation (HR 9.78 (2.08-45.89)), and admission (HR 4.86 (1.09-21.61)) risks in multivariate Cox analysis. Combining LDUST with Child and MELD scores improved their decompensation prediction (0.936 vs. 0.811 and 0.866 vs. 0.700). CONCLUSIONS The LDUST has a solid ability to predict complications in cirrhosis outpatients with CSPH, and its integration with Child and MELD models enhances their predictive power. LDUST implementation could identify individuals necessitating early nutritional support.

Abstract
Liver diseases are the major predisposing conditions for the development of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and frailty. Recently, the mechanism of the onset of these complications has been better established. Regardless of the etiology of the underlying liver disease, the clinical manifestations are common. The main consequences are impaired dietary intake, altered macro- and micronutrient metabolism, energy metabolism disturbances, an increase in energy expenditure, nutrient malabsorption, sarcopenia, frailty, and osteopathy. These complications have direct effects on clinical outcomes, survival, and quality of life. The nutritional status should be assessed systematically and periodically during follow-up in these patients. Maintaining and preserving an adequate nutritional status is crucial and should be a mainstay of treatment. Although general nutritional interventions have been established, special considerations are needed in specific settings such as decompensated cirrhosis, alcohol-related liver disease, and metabolic-dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease. In this review, we summarize the physiopathology and factors that impact the nutritional status of liver disease. We review how to assess malnutrition and sarcopenia and how to prevent and manage these complications in this setting.

Abstract
Nutritional status is an independent predictor of outcome in cirrhosis patients. Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS2002), Royal Free Hospital-Nutritional Prioritizing Tool (RFH-NPT), and Liver Disease Undernutrition Screening Tool (LDUST) were employed to detect cirrhosis with malnutrition risk in this work. Meanwhile, their diagnostic performances were compared to find the best screening method. This work aimed to establish the sarcopenia cut-off value of the transversal psoas thickness index (TPTI), and identify the risk factors for malnutrition. Cirrhosis patients who were admitted to Heibei Gerneral hospital from April 2021 to October 2021 and underwent abdominal CT examination were enrolled. 78 patients were assessed by NRS2002, RFH-NPT, and LDUST. The Global Leadership Initiative for Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria were selected as the gold standard for the diagnosis of malnutrition. Meanwhile the cut-off value of sarcopenia was established based on the TPTI of malnourished patients. Logistic regression analysis was adopted to assess the influencing factors of malnutrition risk and malnutrition. The prevalence of malnutrition was 42.31%. The prevalence of malnutrition risk was 32.1%, 61.5%, and 62.8% with NRS2002, RFH-NPT, and LDUST, respectively. NRS2002 presented the best specificity compared with the other methods, while RFH-NPT showed the highest sensitivity. The optimal gender-specific TPTI cut-off value for diagnosing sarcopenia was determined as TPTI < 14.56 mm/m (male) and TPTI < 8.34 mm/m (female). In the multivariate analysis, ascites was associated with malnutrition risk, while sarcopenia showed a significant risk for malnutrition. NRS2002 and RFH-NPT were superior to LDUST at detecting the malnutrition in cirrhosis patients diagnosed according to GLIM criteria. The gender-specific TPTI cut-off value was TPTI < 14.56 mm/m (male) and TPTI < 8.34 mm/m (female). Malnutrition risk should be screened for patients with ascites as soon as possible. In addition, it was important to evaluate malnutrition in sarcopenia patients in time.

Comparison of the GLIM criteria with specific screening tool for diagnosing malnutrition in hospitalized patients with cirrhosis: A descriptive cross-sectional study. JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 2023; 47:310-321. [PMID: 36128998 DOI: 10.1002/jpen.2452] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Revised: 09/04/2022] [Accepted: 09/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) has been built to diagnose malnutrition; however, its validity among patients with cirrhosis remains enigmatic. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of malnutrition according to GLIM criteria and compare the differences by using a specific screening tool. METHODS We conducted a descriptive cross-sectional study analyzing hospitalized patients. The Royal Free Hospital-Nutritional Prioritizing Tool (RFH-NPT) was chosen as the screening tool. Estimated prevalence was shown with and without the initial screening process. Diverse combinations of phenotypic and etiologic criteria and distinct body mass index (BMI) cutoffs were applied to detect frequency of malnourished patients with cirrhosis. RESULTS Overall, 363 patients were recruited (median age, 64 years; 51.2% female). The prevalence of malnutrition according to GLIM criteria with and without RFH-NPT screening was 33.3% and 36.4%, respectively. Low BMI and inflammation represented the most prevalent combination resulting in a malnutrition diagnosis (42.4%), followed by low BMI and reduced food intake (39.4%). By contrast, the least prevalence was found when combining reduced muscle mass with inflammation to diagnose malnutrition. Furthermore, the frequency of malnourished and well-nourished participants was not statistically different when using divergent BMI reference values across the study population. CONCLUSIONS GLIM criteria may serve a specific proxy to diagnose malnutrition, along with RFH-NPT screening. Relevant investigation is required to report on the applied combination of phenotypic/etiologic criteria, taking into consideration the marked impact of different models. More attempts are warranted to delineate the prognostic role of GLIM criteria in the context of cirrhosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Early 2019, the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) concept offered a clinically applicable and objective procedure for diagnosing malnutrition. This review summarizes 40 publications from August 2021 to August 2022 that applied the GLIM criteria in older populations from various clinical settings for criterion and predictive validation. RECENT FINDINGS Criterion validity studies, by comparing the GLIM construct with various semi-gold standards such as SGA, PG-SGA, MNA-FF/SF and ESPEN criteria, indicate by sensitivity, specificity and agreement that GLIM performs at least as well as the other tools to capture malnutrition. One meta-analysis of 20 studies with various comparators reports high accuracy for distinguishing malnutrition. GLIM-malnutrition prevalence figures vary with screening tool. Predictive validity of GLIM for mortality, and other outcomes, is good in all settings reported. Sarcopenia and GLIM show some expected overlapping. SUMMARY In populations more than 60 years old, the GLIM construct appears to have well acceptable criterion validity as well as predictive validity. The continuous implementation of the GLIM concept is justified.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Malnutrition is prevalent and negatively affects patients with cirrhosis, but a generally accepted consensus pertaining to its diagnosis is lacking. Recently, a framework called the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) has been proposed to diagnose malnutrition, but there is scant evidence regarding its validity. We aimed to investigate associations of malnutrition according to the GLIM criteria, as well as its individual indicator with in-hospital adverse outcomes. METHODS This was a prospective, observational study of consecutively hospitalized patients with cirrhosis. The malnutrition diagnosis was built on a stepwise GLIM process with initial screening, followed by fulfillment of at least one phenotypic and one etiologic criterion. Patients were followed up for a combined endpoint of in-hospital mortality and prolonged length of stay (LOS). Covariates compromise malnutrition according to the GLIM criteria and its indicators in separation. Logistic regression analyses were implemented to determine predictive validity. RESULTS A total of 387 cirrhotic patients were assessed. Malnutrition was diagnosed in 28.7% of patients according to the GLIM criteria, and increased the risk of in-hospital mortality and prolonged LOS by 2.166 and 1.767 times, respectively, adjusting for age, sex, biochemical parameters, and clinical scores of disease severity. When analyzing separate criteria, all constituents were independently associated with in-hospital adverse outcomes, adjusting for model for end-stage liver disease sodium score. CONCLUSIONS Malnutrition according to the GLIM criteria was considerably prevalent among hospitalized patients with cirrhosis, and associated with approximately two times greater probability of in-hospital mortality and prolonged LOS. These diagnostic criteria may be implemented and disseminated during daily practice considering their predictive validity.

Abstract
AIM The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria, a newly developed global consensus around core diagnostic criteria for malnutrition, needs validation studies for use in daily clinical settings. This study aimed to determine whether the GLIM criteria could predict sarcopenia and mortality in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 858 patients with CLD who were treated at our hospital between March 2013 and December 2019. Sarcopenia was diagnosed based on the criteria proposed by the Japan Society of Hepatology. Malnutrition was assessed using the GLIM criteria, subjective global assessment (SGA), and Royal Free Hospital-global assessment (RFH-GA) and their predictive ability for sarcopenia and mortality were assessed using the logistic regression analysis and the Cox proportional hazards regression model, respectively. RESULTS Among the eligible 406 patients, 67% were men, the median age was 74 years, and 26% had sarcopenia. The prevalence of malnutrition according to the GLIM criteria, SGA, and RFH-GA was 21%, 35%, and 26%, respectively. Comparing malnourished with well-nourished patients, the odds ratio for complicating sarcopenia was 2.54 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.44-4.49) for the GLIM criteria, 2.13 (95% CI, 1.09-4.15) for the SGA, and 2.78 (95% CI, 1.56-4.95) for the RFH-GA. During a median follow-up period of 2.0 years, 176 (43%) patients died. After adjusting for confounding factors, the GLIM criteria could independently predict mortality (hazard ratio, 1.95; 95% CI, 1.37-2.81). CONCLUSIONS The GLIM criteria are useful in identifying sarcopenia and predicting mortality in patients with CLD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Acutely ill older adults are at higher risk of malnutrition. This study aimed to explore the applicability and accuracy of the GLIM criteria to diagnose malnutrition in acutely ill older adults in the emergency ward (EW). METHODS We performed a retrospective secondary analysis, of an ongoing cohort study, in 165 participants over 65 years of age admitted to the EW of a Brazilian university hospital. Nutrition assessment included anthropometry, the Simplified Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire (SNAQ), the Malnutrition Screening Tool (MST), and the Mini-Nutritional Assessment (MNA). We diagnosed malnutrition using GLIM criteria, defined by the parallel presence of at least one phenotypic [nonvolitional weight loss (WL), low BMI, low muscle mass (MM)] and one etiologic criterion [reduced food intake or assimilation (RFI), disease burden/inflammation]. We used the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and Cox and logistic regression for data analyses. RESULTS GLIM criteria, following the MNA-SF screening, classified 50.3% of participants as malnourished, 29.1% of them in a severe stage. Validation of the diagnosis using MNA-FF as a reference showed good accuracy (AUC = 0.84), and moderate sensitivity (76%) and specificity (75.1%). All phenotypic criteria combined with RFI showed the best metrics. Malnutrition showed a trend for an increased risk of transference to intensive care unit (OR = 2.08, 95% CI 0.99, 4.35), and severe malnutrition for in-hospital mortality (HR = 4.23, 95% CI 1.2, 14.9). CONCLUSION GLIM criteria, following MNA-SF screening, appear to be a feasible approach to diagnose malnutrition in acutely ill older adults in the EW. Nonvolitional WL combined with RFI or acute inflammation were the best components identified and are easily accessible, allowing their potential use in clinical practice.

Abstract
Liver and pancreatic diseases have significant consequences on nutritional status, with direct effects on clinical outcomes, survival, and quality of life. Maintaining and preserving an adequate nutritional status is crucial and should be one of the goals of patients with liver or pancreatic disease. Thus, the nutritional status of such patients should be systematically assessed at follow-up. Recently, great progress has been made in this direction, and the relevant pathophysiological mechanisms have been better established. While the spectrum of these diseases is wide, and the mechanisms of the onset of malnutrition are numerous and interrelated, clinical and nutritional manifestations are common. The main consequences include an impaired dietary intake, altered macro and micronutrient metabolism, energy metabolism disturbances, an increase in energy expenditure, nutrient malabsorption, sarcopenia, and osteopathy. In this review, we summarize the factors contributing to malnutrition, and the effects on nutritional status and clinical outcomes of liver and pancreatic diseases. We explain the current knowledge on how to assess malnutrition and the efficacy of nutritional interventions in these settings.
