- Abstract
- This study was conducted to analyze relationships between depression indices, mini nutritional assessment scores, andnutritional quotients among 80 elderly in Yangpyeong-gun and to identify factors that help prevent depression andmalnutrition. Nutrition assessment scores were low in the high-risk group (PHQ-9 score 10), and nutritional quotient scoreswere lower in the high-risk group than in the normal group (PHQ-9 score 4). Interestingly, the consumption frequencies offruits, eggs, and nuts were low in the high-risk group, and subjective health awareness, dental condition, and sleep werepoorer. The total PHQ-9 score was correlated with malnutrition, body mass index, calf circumference, weight change,independent daily living, reduced meal amount, water intake, and the need for help when eating. Analysis of correlationsbetween items of the PHQ-9 and nutritional status evaluation indices showed that a self-perceived feeling of depression, lowenergy, difficulty controlling sleep or appetite, negative thoughts (e.g., failure, disappointment), and difficulty concentratingwere negatively correlated with total nutritional status scores. These results show that attention is required when food orwater intake decreases and that deviation from normal sleep and appetite cycles flags the need to prepare guidelines toprevent depression.
