Association between geriatric nutrition risk index and bone mineral density in elderly Chinese people

ConclusionsElderly people with higher GNRI values had higher total hip and lumbar spine T-scores, which suggested that GNRI is closely related to BMD. This relationship is maintained at the total hip, even after fully adjusting for possible confounding variables, and consequently, it may be a good indicator for identifying older people who need further bone health nutritional support.
