1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

purposeTo describe the nutritional status in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in three different defined moments: at admission to the Bone Marrow Transplant Unit (BMTU), at discharge from the BMTU and at follow-up. We hypothesized that nutrition status declines during hospitalization and recovers at follow-up.

methodsProspective cohort study. Nutritional status was determined using the patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) at three different defined moments: T1, defined as the time of admission to the BMTU; T2, at the time of discharge from the BMTU; and T3, at follow-up appointment 10 days after discharge. PG-SGA score differences were described among T1, T2, and T3. Participants were adults admitted for any type of HSCT to our BMTU from March 2010 to July 2013. One hundred and twenty-three patients were included.

resultsSubjects (94.3 %) were well nourished at T1, but 59.7 % were classified as malnourished at T2. PG-SGA score was 3.39 (±3.47) at T1, 12.3 (±5.6) at T2, and 6.54 (±4.57) at T3 (p < 0.001). During hospitalization, nutritional status deteriorated more in men than women (10.59 vs. 7.93; p = 0.002), in patients with length of hospital stay greater than 21 days (10.64 vs. 8.45, p = 0.034), in patients younger than 60 years (10.7 vs. 6.42; p = 0.0007), and those individuals with allogeneic transplant (12.45 vs. 8.74; p = 0.0152).

conclusionsPatients undergoing HSCT were well nourished upon admission to the BMTU. Nutritional status significantly declined during hospitalization and improved at follow-up. However, nutritional intervention may still be required.
