We aimed to determine the characteristics of coexistence of malnutrition and sarcopenia in the elderly gastric cancer patients and investigate the predictive roles of malnutrition and sarcopenia on clinical outcomes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Between 2014 and 2019, a total of 742 elderly gastric cancer patients were enrolled. Malnutrition and sarcopenia were diagnosed according to the most recent diagnostic criteria. Patients were divided into four groups according to presence of these two symptoms. Clinical characteristics, short- and long-term outcomes were compared among four groups. The independent risk factors for complications and survival were evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Of all patients, 34.8% were diagnosed with malnutrition and 34.0% were diagnosed with sarcopenia.
