MiOA: Intervention: Community: Registered Dietitian Nutritionists' Interventions (2023)

Intervention
In older adults living in the community, what is the effect of registered dietitian nutritionists' interventions on calorie and protein intake?
- Conclusion
  Registered dietitian nutritionists' interventions may increase calorie and protein intake in older adults living in the community.
- Grade: Low (C)
  - Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
  - Grade II is Fair;
  - Grade III is Limited/Weak;
  - Grade IV is Expert Opinion Only;
  - Grade V is Not Assignable.
  - High (A) means we are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect;
  - Moderate (B) means we are moderately confident in the effect estimate;
  - Low (C) means our confidence in the effect estimate is limited;
  - Very Low (D) means we have very little confidence in the effect estimate.
  - Ungraded means a grade is not assignable.
