Malnutrition in hospitalized patients is a global problem with an increasing prevalence. To date, there is no universally accepted consensus for diagnosing malnutrition. Comparative studies between malnutrition criteria according to GLIM and the gold standard, namely Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) have not been widely carried out in Indonesia. This study aims to compare the validity of the GLIM criteria against the SGA. The study design was cross-sectional with the subject of hospitalized internal medicine patients aged 18-45 years (n=108). The assessment was conducted by comparing prevalence, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), the area under the curve (AUC), positive likelihood ratio (LR+), and negative likelihood ratio (LR-) GLIM criteria against SGA. The results obtained in this study were 57.4 percent women, 60.2 percent late adulthood, 54.6 percent high school graduates, 34.3 percent private employees, and 68.5 percent have income less than minimum wage. The prevalence of malnutrition based on GLIM criteria and SGA was 75 percent and 70.4 percent, respectively. The GLIM criteria have good validity (sensitivity of 98.7%, specificity 81.3%, PPV 92.5%, NPV 96.2%, AUC value 0,9, LR+ 5.28 and a LR- 0.016). Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the GLIM criteria have good validity, so they can be recommended as diagnostic tools to determine malnutrition status in hospital nutrition services

The disturbance in performing Poyandu routine activities in Puskesmas Bojong Menteng and face-to-face Cadre refresher during COVID-19 pandemic might reduce cadres' motivation and knowledge. A virtual education program through webinars is one of the possible solutions. This community service activity aims to analyze the effects of webinar on nutrition through zoom meeting on cadres' motivation and knowledge regarding 1) the role of cadres during the pandemic, 2) prevention of COVID-19 with balanced nutrition, water, sanitation, hygiene, and physical activity and 3) introduction to Ms. Excel application in smartphone. The webinars were given in 2 days with delivering a pre- and post-test evaluation. The statistical analysis used was Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Participants were 33 Cadres. Cadres have received technical guidance to use the zoom application on their smartphone prior to the webinar schedule. The majority of cadres are in the age of 31-45 years old (45.5%) and have graduated from high school (63.6%). Result shows that the mean of Cadre’s score on knowledge and motivation had increased from 65 to 85 and 90 to 100 (p:<0.05). This concludes that webinars could be a potential way to refresh and educate Posyandu cadres during a pandemic

Background: Malnutrition at hospital admission may adversely affect patients' clinical outcomes. The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) recently set a standard of measurable criteria to diagnose malnutrition. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the proportion and risk factors of malnutrition at hospital admission.Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted in the internal medicine ward of the National General Central Hospital, Dr. Cipto Mangunkusmo (RSCM), Jakarta, from January to May 2022. Subjects aged 18 and above were recruited for this study. Malnutrition at hospital admission was defined according to the GLIM criteria. Then, the data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression to determine malnutrition risk factors, presented by odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).Results: A total of 231 subjects were enrolled in the study. Among them, 85.3% were malnourished according to the GLIM criteria. In addition, subjects with a severe to total dependency on functional status (OR 9.406, 95%CI: 3.147–28.109), inadequate energy intake (OR 2.718, 95%CI: 1.197–6.172), and multimorbidity (OR 2.337, 95%CI: 1.045–5.228), were significantly associated with malnutrition at hospital admission cases. Conclusion: According to the GLIM criteria, the proportion of malnutrition at hospital admission is high. The risk factors of malnutrition at hospital admission include low functional status, inadequate energy intake, and multimorbidity.Keywords : Malnutrition; Nutritional status; Nutrition assessment; Hospital admission; Internal medicine, Inpatients
