The diagnosis standard of malnutrition was established by using the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria. Patients were followed up to ascertain the length of hospitalization, and hospital stays longer than 17 days were considered as prolonged LOS. To explore the risk factors of malnutrition and the association between malnutrition and LOS, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Overall 219 DFU patients were enrolled, malnutrition was identified in 38.36% of patients according to GLIM criteria, and 92 patients (42%) were recognized as prolonged LOS. Logistic regression analyses showed that BMI (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;0.001), Alb (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.002), HbA1c (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.001), ulcer infection (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.001), LOS (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.010), and ABI (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.024) were independent risk factors for malnutrition. Besides, malnutrition by GLIM criteria was closely related to prolonged LOS and malnourished DFU patients were 2.857 times (95% CI, 1.497\u20135.450; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.001) likely to present prolonged LOS than that of normal nutrition.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Malnutrition was considered to be extremely prevalent in DFU patients and was associated with approximately three times higher likelihood of prolonged LOS. Implementing and disseminating the diagnostic criteria during routine practice is crucial, given the predictive efficacy of GLIM criteria.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41387-024-00290-6","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,16]],"date-time":"2024-05-16T16:01:44Z","timestamp":1715875304000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Risk factors for malnutrition in patients with diabetic foot ulcer and its association with prolonged length of hospitalization"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Qian","family":"Ran","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Weiwei","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xili","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hang","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Li","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yunqiu","family":"Luo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"290_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"164","DOI":"10.1007\/s00508-023-02167-7","volume":"135","author":"G K\u00f6hler","year":"2023","unstructured":"K\u00f6hler G, Eichner M, Abrahamian H, Kofler M, Sturm W, Menzel A.
