Figure 4. Association between nutritional indexes and incidence rate of all‐cause mortality.

Figure 4

The incidence rate of all‐cause mortality is shown after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, and Society of Thoracic Surgeons Predicted Risk of Mortality score for each nutritional index: (A) CONUT score, (B) GNRI, and (C) PNI. The right y‐axis shows the incidence rate (events per 100 person‐years). The x‐axis shows the score of malnutrition indexes. The blue curves show the incidence with 95% CIs of the estimates. Poisson models were used to estimate the incidence rates. Histograms show the population distribution of malnutrition indexes. CONUT indicates Controlling Nutritional Status; GNRI, Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index; and PNI, Prognostic Nutritional Index.
