Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Purpose: Malnutrition and frailty predict postoperative complications. Recently, in an effort to assess nutritional status modified quantitative subjective global assessment (QSGA) systems have been devised in which scores are assigned for items or components of the SGA. This prospective research assessed the connection between frailty evaluation techniques and parameters related to nutritional status in patients awaiting kidney transplantation.
