Deregulation of IL-37 and its miRNAs modulators in sarcopenic patients after rehabilitation

Table 3 Nutritional status of the Sarcopenic patients enrolled in the study Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA)

Sarcopenic patients	Range	> 24	> 17	17–23.5
T₀	N°	3	9	9
T₀	Means T₀	29.8	18.76	11.6
T₁	N°	3	10	8
T₁	Means T₁	32.9	19.4	12.5

The sum of the MNA score distinguishes between elderly patients:
(1) With adequate nutrition status (MNA > 24),
(2) With protein-calorie malnutrition (MNA > 17);
(3) At risk for malnutrition (MNA between 17 and 23.5).
With this scoring, sensitivity was found to be 96%, specificity 98%, and predictive value 97% [36]
