Oral condition of institutionalized older people: influence on anthropometric indicators, food and nutrient intake
ABSTRACT Objective: To assess whether there are differences between oral problems and food, energy, and nutrient intake and anthropometric indicators of institutionalized older adults. Methods: A total of 150 older people participated in the study. Their nutritional status was determined by anthro...

Methods: A total of 150 older people participated in the study. Their nutritional status was determined by anthropometric indicators and food intake. Oral problems were examined by a trained dentist who checked for caries, periodontitis, dry mouth, edentulism, and poorly-fitting partial or complete dentures. The categorical variables were analyzed by the Fisher's Exact Test and the continuous variables were analyzed by the Student's t-test for parametric data and the Mann–Whitney test for nonparametric data (p≤0.05). Results: Older people with oral problems presented lower anthropometric measurements and indices except for biceps skinfold thickness and consumed less energy (p= 0.027), protein (p= 0.012), lipids (0.012), and pan-fried meats (p= 0.001). Conclusion: Anthropometric indicators and the energy, protein and lipid intake were lower in elderly people with oral problems.
