1: GNRI = (1.489×serum albumin [g/L]) + (41.7×[current body weight / ideal body weight]); GNRI diagnostic criteria with Bouillanne O is high risk (GNRI<82), moderate risk (82≤GNRI<92), low risk (92≤GNRI≤98), and no risk (GNRI >98). GNRI: geriatric nutritional risk index SBO: small bowel obstruction, NSCLC: non-small cell lung cancer, POD: postoperative delirium
