Abstract
Malnutrition is a common complication of chronic pancreatitis (CP) and liver cirrhosis (LC). Inadequate food intake is considered a relevant driver of malnutrition in both entities. However, the contribution of habitual diet to impaired nutritional status is unclear. In a prospective, multicenter cross-sectional study, we recruited patients with confirmed CP or LC and healthy volunteers as a control group. Malnutrition was diagnosed according to the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria. We comprehensively investigated habitual dietary intake on nutrient, food group, and dietary pattern level applying two validated food frequency questionnaires. We included 144 patients (CP: n = 66; LC: n = 78) and 94 control subjects. Malnutrition was prevalent in 64% and 62% of patients with CP or LC, respectively. In both CP and LC, despite slightly altered food group consumption in malnourished and non-malnourished patients there were no differences in energy or nutrient intake as well as dietary quality. Compared to controls patients showed distinct dietary food group habits. Patients consumed less alcohol but also lower quantities of fruits and vegetables as well as whole grain products (p < 0.001, respectively). Nevertheless, overall dietary quality was comparable between patients and healthy controls. Nutritional status in CP and LC patients is rather related to disease than habitual dietary intake supporting the relevance of other etiologic factors for malnutrition such as malassimilation or chronic inflammation. Despite distinct disease-related differences, overall dietary quality in patients with CP or LC was comparable to healthy subjects, which suggests susceptibility to dietary counselling and the benefits of nutrition therapy in these entities.

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.

Abstract
Background Sleep disturbance and trace elements imbalance are common features in patients with decompensated cirrhosis, partially sharing similar mechanistic contributors and linking to adverse outcomes. However, there is a paucity of data concerning their relationship. Objectives To investigate the association between serum trace elements levels and sleep quality in the context of cirrhosis. Design Cross-sectional study. Methods We consecutively enrolled 160 patients with decompensated cirrhosis. The sleep disturbance was determined by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI > 5). Serum trace elements [magnesium, calcium, iron, copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), lead, and manganese] was measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Association of examined trace elements levels and sleep disturbance was analyzed by multiple linear (global PSQI scores) and multivariate logistic (dichotomized PSQI categories) regression models, respectively. Results In total, 91 patients (56.88%) represented PSQI-defined sleep disturbance, characterized by female preponderance, lower body mass index levels, and higher serum Cu levels (all p < 0.05). Looking into its clinical relevance with debilitating conditions, we showed that Cu/Zn ratio (CZr) is significantly higher in cirrhosis with poor sleep quality (1.77 versus 1.48, p = 0.003). Diagnostic performance analysis indicated CZr > 1.62 to exhibit better discrimination relative to respective Cu. Both multiple linear (β = 0.355, p < 0.001) and multivariate logistic regression (odds ratio = 2.364, p = 0.019) identified higher CZr as an independent risk factor associated with sleep disturbance. Conclusion Our findings implied an association between higher CZr and the presence of sleep disturbance in patients with decompensated cirrhosis.

Abstract
(1) Background: The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) was published in 2019, and its application has been explored in several diseases. However, the data on malnutrition based on the GLIM in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients are sparse. (2) Methods: This single-center, retrospective cohort study included 605 hospitalized UC patients. Demographics and clinical data were collected from electronic medical records. Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) was used as a screening tool, and malnutrition was diagnosed according to the GLIM criteria. The skeletal muscle area of the third lumber cross-section in abdominal computed tomography was used to evaluate muscle mass within one week before or after admission. (3) Results: The prevalence of malnutrition was 64.1% in this cohort, and the prevalences were 34.2, 57.7, and 86.7% in UC patients with mild, moderate, and severe disease activity, respectively. Malnourished patients tended to need surgical treatment (p = 0.080) and had a 2.4 times greater risk of opportunistic infection. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that UC patients with malnutrition had a 1.7-fold increased risk of readmission. (4) Conclusions: Nutritional problems deserve more attention in hospitalized UC patients. Malnutrition identified through the GLIM criteria was associated with opportunistic infection, tended to be associated with surgical treatment, and showed a prognosis value for readmission.

Abstract
Objective The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) has proposed criteria for the diagnosis of malnutrition, one of which is reduced muscle mass. Computed tomography (CT) assessment of psoas muscle area (PMA) has been used to estimate muscle mass in patients, including those with acute pancreatitis (AP). The present study aimed to define the cutoff value of PMA indicative of reduced muscle mass in patients with AP and to assess the impact of reduced muscle mass on the severity and early complications of AP. Methods Clinical data of 269 patients with AP were analyzed retrospectively. The severity of AP was determined according to the revised Atlanta classification. PMA was evaluated by CT and used to calculate the psoas muscle index (PMI). Cutoff values for reduced muscle mass were calculated and validated. Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the relationship between PMA and the severity of AP. Results PMA was a better indicator of reduced muscle mass than PMI, with cutoff values of 11.50 cm2 for men and 8.22 cm2 for women. Rates of local complications, splenic vein thrombosis, and organ failure were significantly higher in AP patients with low than high PMA (all p < 0.05). PMA showed good ability to predict splenic vein thrombosis in women, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.848 (95% confidence interval 0.768-0.909, sensitivity 100%, specificity 83.64%). Multivariate logistic regression revealed that PMA was an independent risk factor for moderately severe plus severe AP (odds ratio 5.639, p = 0.001) and severe AP (odds ratio 3.995, p = 0.038). Conclusion PMA is a good predictor of the severity and complications of AP. The PMA cutoff value is a good indicator of reduced muscle mass.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Despite the advances in medical therapies, a significant proportion of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases [IBD] require surgical intervention. This Topical Review aims to offer expert consensus practice recommendations for peri-operative care to optimize outcomes of IBD patients who undergo surgery. METHODS A multidisciplinary panel of IBD healthcare providers systematically reviewed aspects relevant to peri-operative care in IBD. Consensus statements were developed using Delphi methodology. RESULTS A total of 20 current practice positions were developed following systematic review of the current literature covering use of medication in the peri-operative period, nutritional assessment and intervention, physical and psychological rehabilitation and prehabilitation, and immediate postoperative care. CONCLUSION Peri-operative planning and optimization of the patient are imperative to ensure favourable outcomes and reduced morbidity. This Topical Review provides practice recommendations applicable in the peri-operative period in IBD patients undergoing surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to analyze the performance of the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria and Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) and Royal Free Hospital Global Assessment (RFH-GA) scores in predicting 12-mo mortality in patients awaiting liver transplantation. METHODS This is a longitudinal observational study, carried out between March 2019 and November 2021. Clinical data were collected and nutritional assessment was performed through anthropometry and application of validated instruments, such as the SGA, GLIM criteria, and RFH-GA. A Cox regression model was carried out, in which the dependent variable was mortality in 1 y, and the independent variables were the classifications of nutritional status by the different methods. RESULTS The sample consisted of 126 patients, most of them male (56.35%). Malnutrition was diagnosed in 85.71% of the patients according to the RFH-GA, 62.70% according to the SGA, and 56.31% according to the GLIM criteria. Malnutrition assessed by GLIM was related to a 3.79-fold increase in the chance of mortality over time in patients awaiting liver transplantation. Moreover, the GLIM criteria had good discriminatory power in identifying mortality in patients awaiting liver transplantation, compared with the initial and final SGA and RFH-GA scores and the Model for End-stage Liver Disease-Sodium (MELD-Na) index. CONCLUSIONS The GLIM criteria were a good predictor of increased risk of mortality in malnourished patients with chronic liver disease awaiting liver transplantation, compared with the SGA and RFH-GA scores and the MELD-Na index.

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
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
Abstract
Background
Malnutrition is common in colorectal cancer patients. Malnutrition is recognized as a risk factor for adverse postoperative outcomes, yet there are no consistent diagnostic criteria for it. Thus, the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition published new universal criteria. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of malnutrition with the application of Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria, and explore the correlations between Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition-defined malnutrition and postoperative clinical outcomes in colorectal cancer patients.
Methods
We included a cohort of 918 patients who underwent radical resection surgery for colorectal cancer from July 2014 to October 2019. Malnutrition was diagnosed based on the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria. The associations between nutritional status and postoperative clinical outcomes were analyzed by the Kaplan–Meier method, logistic and Cox regression analyses.
Results
Among the included patients, 23.6% were diagnosed as malnutrition based on Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria. Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition-defined malnutrition was associated with total postoperative complications [odds ratio: 1.497 (1.042–2.152), P = 0.029]. Further, Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition-diagnosed malnutrition was an independent risk factor for overall survival [hazard ratio: 1.647 (1.048–2.587), P = 0.030] and disease-free survival [hazard ratio: 1.690 (1.169–2.441), P = 0.005].
Conclusions
The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria is effective to assess malnutrition. Preoperative malnutrition is associated with postoperative complications, overall survival and disease-free survival in colorectal cancer patients after radical resection surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Altered body composition is an important characteristic of malnutrition that may better reflect the clinical course. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic role of sarcopenia by computed tomography (CT) on colectomy in acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC) during index hospitalization and follow-up. METHODS 254 ASUC patients undergoing CT scans at admission were retrospectively included. Sarcopenia was assessed by the skeletal muscle index (SMI) with CT scans at L3, and patients with an SMI below the lowest sex-specific quartile were diagnosed with sarcopenia. Body mass index (BMI) < 18.5 kg/m2 was defined as clinical malnutrition. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine the association between sarcopenia and colectomy. RESULTS The prevalence of sarcopenia in ASUC was 50.0%, and malnutrition was 25.2%. Among sarcopenic patients, 36.2% was malnutrition, 51.2% had normal BMI, 11.8% was overweight, and 0.8% was obese. During index hospitalization, 66.9% patients needed rescue therapy with 52.4% received medical rescue therapy and 14.6% received colectomy. During follow-up, 33.2% patients needed colectomy. Significantly more sarcopenic patients required colectomy (22.0% vs 7.1%, p = 0.001) and rescue therapy (81.9% vs 52.0%, p < 0.001) during index hospitalization and colectomy during follow-up (44.4% vs 23.7%, p = 0.001) than non-sarcopenic patients. However, BMI < 18.5 kg/m2 was not related to the clinical course. In multivariate analyses, sarcopenia remained an independent risk factor for rescue therapy and colectomy during index hospitalization and colectomy during follow-up. CONCLUSION Sarcopenia rather than BMI was associated with clinical outcomes in ASUC and played an important role in predicting the need for colectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) is a novel framework for diagnosing malnutrition and requires evaluation in wide-ranging clinical settings. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of malnutrition and its phenotypic characteristics among lung transplantation (LTx) candidates comparing GLIM to International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) criteria. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted of all adult patients assessed for LTx in a one-year period. Phenotypic criteria included body mass index (BMI), unintentional loss of weight (LOW) over a 12-month period and fat-free mass index (FFMI) using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Systemic inflammation associated with severe end-stage lung disease met GLIM's etiological criterion. Diagnosis of malnutrition, and its severity, were classified according to each of GLIM and ICD-10. RESULTS Of 130 patients, 112 (86%) had all data to classify malnutrition. Malnutrition prevalence according to GLIM was 59%, which was markedly greater than using ICD-10 criteria (26%). Half of the LTx patients were moderately malnourished using GLIM, compared to 19% using ICD-10. A similar proportion were severely malnourished using GLIM (9%) and ICD-10 (7%). Fat-free mass (FFM) depletion (47% of all patients) was a major contributor to GLIM-malnutrition. Over 60% of LTx patients with GLIM-malnutrition were not detected as malnourished using ICD-10 criteria. CONCLUSION Malnutrition diagnosis using GLIM was higher than using ICD-10 in LTx patients, primarily attributable to the incorporation of quantitative evaluation of FFM depletion. This highlights the utility of the GLIM framework and the importance of including body composition in malnutrition assessment.
