Within patients diagnosed with RFS, stepwise nutritional therapy contributed to better clinical outcomes. Among all enrolled high\u2010risk elderly individuals, nutritional regimens combined with phosphate, magnesium, potassium, vitamin B1 (thiamine) supplementation, and appropriate energy restriction effectively alleviated RFS severity and related complications.

Notably, multimicronutrient supplementation exerts a stronger protective effect against RFS than feeding route or initial energy regimen. Low BMI, hypoalbuminemia, and elevated D\u2010dimer serve as reliable predictors of RFS. Stepwise nutritional intervention with prompt electrolyte correction can shorten hospital stay and enhance 90\u2010day survival.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1155\/jnme\/8521417","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,25]],"date-time":"2026-08-25T10:50:15Z","timestamp":1787655015000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Risk Factors and Prognostic Effects of Refeeding Syndrome in Malnourished Elderly Patients During Nutritional Support"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2026","author":[{"given":"Lin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lu","family":"Meng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Han","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhihui","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuexuan","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-6134-4784","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shuhua","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-35-1-69"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ncp.10474"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_2","first-page":"107","article-title":"Refeeding Syndrome","volume":"120","author":"Heuft L.","year":"2023","journal-title":"Dtsch Arztebl Int"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000218162"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjmed.2021.03.010"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_2","volume-title":"Nutrition Support in Adults","author":"National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence","year":"2017"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0004563214523739"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2012-002173"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/cc9274"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.nut.2016.05.016"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0261-5614(02)00214-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clnu.2021.04.023"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/nan.0000000000000038"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2337\/diabetes.48.2.292"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0115426505020006625"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.39021.785197.47"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0002-8223(98)00179-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.1977.03630140051013"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.nut.2017.09.007"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"273","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.1.5795.273","article-title":"Hypophosphataemia and Hyperphosphataemia in a Hospital Population","volume":"1","author":"Betro M.
