Abstract
Although GNRI is significantly correlated with other nutritional indices, it is not sensitive for screening malnutrition in PD patients. Serial measurements of GNRI are also not sensitive in detecting a change in nutritional status. Further study is needed to identify a simple and reliable tool for the assessment and monitoring of nutritional status in PD patients.
