BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has quickly spread across the world. However, the nutritional status of COVID-19 patients has not yet been extensively examined. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the nutritional status of COVID-19 patients and to identify factors independently associated with malnutrition risk. METHODS: In this single-center, cross-sectional study, we analyzed data from 760 hospitalized COVID-19 patients between 29 January 2020 and 15 March 2020. Based on the Nutrition Risk Screening (NRS) 2002 score, we divided patients into the normal nutrition group (NRS score <3) and the malnutrition risk group (NRS score >/=3). The associations of age, gender, symptoms, comorbidities, BMI, serum albumin and prealbumin concentrations, disease severity, activities of daily living (ADL) score, and clinical outcomes with malnutrition risk were analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent factors associated with malnutrition risk. RESULTS: Of patients with COVID-19, 82.6% were at risk of malnutrition. There were statistical differences in the age, incidence of fever, BMI, serum albumin and prealbumin concentrations, ADL score, and disease severity between the 2 groups. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that age >/=65 y (vs. <65 y; OR: 5.40; P < 0.001), serum albumin <35 g/L (vs. >/=35 g/L; OR: 3.61; P < 0.001), serum prealbumin <150 mg/L (vs. >/=150 mg/L; OR: 2.88; P = 0.042), critical cases (vs. moderate cases; OR: 4.46; P < 0.001), ADL score 41-60 (vs. ADL score 100; OR: 4.50; P = 0.012), and ADL score =40 (vs. ADL score 100; OR: 9.49; P < 0.001) were significantly associated with the risk of malnutrition in COVID-19 patients. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that prevalence of malnutrition risk was high in COVID-19 patients. Older age, low serum albumin and prealbumin concentrations, ADL score <60, and disease severity were independent factors associated with malnutrition risk.
