GLIM Criteria–defined malnutrition and short-term mortality in acute care hospitals: A nationwide claims-based historical cohort study
In this nationwide cohort of 174,439 hospitalized adult patients, both GLIM-defined malnutrition and incomplete or missing GLIM assessment data were associated with substantially higher 30-d and 60-d mortality rates, highlighting the potential utility of the criteria for mortality risk stratification in routine clinical practice and identifying underassessment as a pragmatic risk indicator.
