目的 了解住院老年人抑郁与营养不良的关系.方法 利用简易营养评价法(MNA)及老年抑郁量表(GDS)对114例住院老年人进行营养状况及抑郁调查,并按有无抑郁分为2组比较其营养状况.结果 住院老年人抑郁的患病率62.3%(71例),营养不良及潜在营养不良的患病率分别为43.9%(50例)及41.2%(47例).抑郁的患者其潜在营养不良及营养不良发生率高;并且在控制年龄、病种数、是否卧床、营养方式4个因素后,MNA与GDS仍相关(偏相关系数为r=-0.329,P=0.001).结论 抑郁与营养不良有关,抑郁程度越重,更容易出现营养不良.%Objective To explore the relationship between depression and malnutrition in hospitalized aged patients. Methods The mini nutritional assessment (MNA) table and geriatric depression scale (GDS) were used to investigate the nutritional status and depression of 114hospitalized elderly. Results The prevalence of depression was 62.3% (71 patients), the prevalences of malnutrition and latent malnutrition were 43.9% (50 patients) and 41.2% (47patients) respectively. The prevalence of malnutrition and latent malnutrition was higher in depressive patients than in non-depressive patients. After controlling age, number of illnesses, bed-ridden or not and method of nutrition, the nutritional status was negatively correlated with the grade of depression.Conclusions The prevalence of malnutrition in depressive patients is high and is associated with the grade of depression.
