No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Previous studies have demonstrated the direct associations between malnutrition and hospital mortality as well as the length of stay in critically ill patients. However, the validity of these results may be limited by inappropriate diagnoses of malnutrition, small sample size, possible treatment bias, and sub-optimal statistical adjustment. This study aimed to further examine the aforementioned associations by addressing these limitations.
