Results Sarcopenia patients had higher NRS2002 (2.63 ± 1.16 vs. Logistic regression was used to confirm the associations. The cut-off value of nutritional scores for identifying sarcopenia was obtained by maximum Youden index. The correlations of nutritional scores with SMI, nutritional categories with sarcopenia were assessed by Spearman's correlation test and point biserial correlation. Sarcopenia was diagnosed with CT scan at the third lumber vertebra level. We used NRS2002 and PG-SGA to assess their nutrition status. Methods A consecutive cohort comprised of 432 gastrointestinal cancer patients was conducted. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether NRS2002 and PG-SGA scores are associated with sarcopenia in gastrointestinal cancers.

The nutritional risk screening 2002 (NRS2002) and patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) tools are widely used tools for nutrition risk screening and assessing. Abstract : Purpose Sarcopenia is an independent risk factor for poor prognosis of cancers.
