Feeding Difficulties and Survival Outcomes in Advanced Dementia: <i>A multicentre retrospective study from Oman</i>
Feeding problems identify a subgroup with poorer unadjusted survival, but the association with mortality was not significant after adjustment for confounders. Male sex independently predicted higher mortality. These findings support the need for prospective studies with standardised feeding assessments and nutritional measures.
