“…Malnutrition is frequently in this population, but it is undiagnosed (26) . It is directly related with patient prognosis, and leads to increased morbidity, mortality and hospital expenditures in patients with cirrho sis (2,10,20) . There is no gold standard to the diagnosis of malnutrition in liver disease patients (2,12,13) .…”

“…Parameters widely used in other pathologies are not really useful in this population, such as the BMI. In fact, in this study, when using the BMI, 37% of the cirrhotic patients were well nourished and more than 60% were overweight or obese, which is attributed to water retention (8,12,14). This method underestimates the malnutrition diagnosis in cirrhotic patients and should not be used in this population.…”

“…The inadequate food intake and the deficiency of nutrients have been associated with liver diseases (8,13). In this study, half the patients with chronic liver diseases without cirrhosis and most individuals with cirrhosis presented inadequate ener-gy intake (lower than the minimum recommendation) (24), contributing to malnutrition in this population and confirming the description of other studies (8,18). Recently, the insufficient food intake was independently associated with the nutritional status in the pre-liver transplantation period and 90 days after that (18).…”

“…As condições físicas desses pacientes descompensados muitas vezes tornam-se um empecilho para avaliação através de métodos antropométricos, como o PA e medidas de circunferência tradicionais. 21 A ANSG tende a ser um instrumento útil para o diagnóstico de desnutrição em pacientes com hepatopatias, 22 sendo também um método disponível e acessível finan-ceiramente. Entretanto, por ser um instrumento subjetivo, é importante ressaltar que seja passível de interpretações de acordo com o entrevistador, necessitando de treinamento para realização.…”
