Increased nutrition-related risk as an independent predictor of the incidence of hypoglycemia in the hospitalized older individuals with type 2 diabetes: a single-center cohort study
Tóm tắt
There are few reports on the association between malnutrition and hypoglycemia. The geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) allows risk classification by morbidity and mortality resulting from conditions often associated with malnutrition in older individuals. However, the association between GNRI and hypoglycemia is unclear. This study examined the associations between nutrition-related risk and hypoglycemia among older individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) using diabetes medication. This single-center historical cohort study included hospitalized patients aged ≥ 65 years with T2D on medication. Nutrition-related risk was assessed using the GNRI and classified into four risk groups. Hypoglycemia and serious hypoglycemia were determined by oral or intravenous glucose intake and blood glucose < 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) as hypoglycemia, among them blood glucose < 3.0 mmol/L (54 mg/dL) as serious hypoglycemia. Data were recorded at least once during hospitalization. Patients who met the criteria (n = 1.754) were included in the study. The participants median age was 75.0 years. During the study, 81 patients (4.6%) experienced hypoglycemia and 7 patients (0.4%) experienced serious hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia was observed in patients in the major risk (16.0%), moderate risk (9.7%), low risk (5.2%), and no risk (1.5%) groups (p for trend < 0.001). After adjusting for other risk factors, the hazard ratios of hypoglycemic among people with major, moderate, and low risk were 5.50, 3.86, and 2.55, respectively. Hypoglycemia increased with increasing nutrition-related risk among older individuals with T2D using diabetes medication. The GNRI is a simple and useful assessment tool in the clinical setting.
