Introduction: The relevance of the nutritional status in patients with orthopedic trauma (OT) has been enhanced in the literature.
Objective: This study compared overweight and obese patients with normal body weight patients and their relationship with nutritional and metabolic indicators.
Methods: Patients with OT (n=108) were investigated in a prospective study for body mass index (BMI) in relation to their calf circumference (CC), vitamin D and albumin serum levels.
The statistical analysis included the Chi-square or Fisher tests and the Mann-Whitney test and Spearman's linear correlation coefficient.
Results: There was no association between gender, type of fractured bone, laterality, smoking, diabetes, menopause, albumin and vitamin D and the two groups of patients classified by BMI. There was an association (p <0.0001) only with CC, with lower CC values in patients with normal body weight.
Conclusion: BMI was not associated with metabolic indicators in patients with OT
