社会孤立和孤独是老年人群中出现的问题。两者之间的关系及其对老年人健康和营养状况的影响是复杂的。本研究的目的是评估社会隔离的三个组成部分之间的关联：社会网络，孤独感，孤独感和营养状况。MethodsA共1200名随机选择的老年人，年龄65岁，生活在农村地区的黎巴嫩参加了本研究。在面对面访谈中收集数据，包括营养状况（微型营养评估），社会隔离措施（Lubben社会网络量表），主观孤独（Jong-Gierveld孤独量表）、社会人口学条件、健康和功能状态。结果社会孤立和孤独都与营养不良的高风险独立相关（OR分别为1.58，P=0.011; OR 1.15，P=0.020）。然而，没有发现之间的频率共享膳食和营养不良的风险。ConclusionsThe本研究表明，社会隔离和主观孤独是两个独立的危险因素，老年人营养不良。Geriatr Gerontol Int 2017; 17：286-294.
AimSocial isolation and loneliness are emerging issues among the geriatric population. The relationships between both, and their impact on health and nutritional status in older people are complex. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the association between three components of social isolation: social network, feeling of loneliness, commensality and nutritional status.MethodsA total of 1200 randomly selected elderly individuals aged65 years and living in rural areas of Lebanon participated in the present study. Data were collected during a face-to-face interview including nutritional status (Mini-Nutritional Assessment), measures of social isolation (Lubben Social Network Scale), subjective loneliness (Jong-Gierveld Loneliness Scale), sociodemographic conditions, and health and functional status.ResultsBoth social isolation and loneliness were independently associated with a higher risk of malnutrition (OR 1.58, P=0.011; OR 1.15, P=0.020, respectively). However no association was found between the frequency of sharing meals and the risk of malnutrition.ConclusionsThe present study showed that social isolation and subjective loneliness are two independent risk factors for malnutrition among older people.
