Spearman correlation test was used to analyze the data. Most of the elderly do not experience depression (GDS<5). There was a correlation between depression with nutritional status of the elderly (p=0.007). Depression elderly were 9.75 times more likely to malnourished than nutritional status [OR=9.75, 95% CI =`1.63 (1.45-1.81)].
