Background/aim: There are no recommendations for the optimal nutritional status assessment parameters (NSAPs) in the current literature. The aim of this study was to define the optimal NSAPs for nutritional status assessing in gastroenterological patients on hospital admission.
Methods: Nutritional status of 612 gastroenterological patients was evaluated at the admission using 6 NSAPs: unintentional weight loss (WL), body mass index (BMI), triceps skinfold thickness (TSF), mid-upper arm muscle circumference (MAMC), serum albumin concentration (ALB), and lymphocyte counts (LYM).
