In our research, we assessed patients' nutritional status using the PNI scale and examined the impact of the PNI score on clinical outcomes during the post-transplant phase. Results: The acute rejection rate was 38.1%, and the 30-day survival rate was 90.5%. Median PNI values were 41.5 (min-max: 33.5-65), 29.5 (min-max: 13.5-56.5), 33 (min-max: 3-51), 35.7 (min-max: 24.5-54), 33.5 (min-max: 24.5-75.5) preoperatively and on postoperative 1, 7, 15, and 30 days, respectively. No significant relationship was found between the other parameters and the PNI. Conclusions: The PNI score alone fails to adequately represent a patient's nutritional status and has not demonstrated effectiveness in predicting early-term outcomes for those undergoing intestinal transplantation. Additional studies involving a larger number of patients and diverse nutritional markers are necessary for further insights into this matter. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessArticle10.1016/j.transproceed.2025.09.0022-s2.0-105016250860
