TI  - GLIM Criteria for Assessment of Malnutrition in Saudi Patients with Type 2 
      Diabetes.

AB  - The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) is a new approach 
      established for the assessment of malnutrition. This study aimed to validate the 
      GLIM for the diagnosis of malnutrition in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus 
      (T2DM) in Saudi Arabia, using the Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) as a 
      reference. In addition, the association between the GLIM criteria and vascular 
      complications in those patients was examined. A cross-sectional study was 
      conducted on 101 patients with T2DM. The level of agreement between the GLIM and 
      SGA tools was calculated using the kappa coefficient (kappa). A receiver operating 
      characteristic curve was used to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the 
      GLIM. In addition, binary logistic regression was performed to investigate the 
      association between each GLIM criterion and T2DM vascular complications. 
      According to both the GLIM and the SGA, malnutrition was found in 15.8% and 17.8% 
      of patients, respectively. The GLIM criteria achieved a very good level of 
      accuracy (AUC = 0.877). The agreement between the tools was substantial (kappa = 
      0.778). The 'disease/inflammation' criterion of the GLIM was significantly 
      associated with macrovascular complications. To conclude, the GLIM criteria for 
      diagnosis of malnutrition presented satisfactory levels of validity, and as such 
      are acceptable for assessing the nutritional status of patients with T2DM.
