Risk analysis using the prognostic nutritional index in hemodialysis-dependent patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
Observational study in Journal of artificial organs : the official journal of the Japanese Society for Artificial Organs, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The prognostic nutritional index is an effective prognostic tool used in gastrointestinal surgeries. However, its value has not been verified in cardiovascular surgeries. This study aimed to investigate its utility in hemodialysis-dependent patients undergoing cardiac surgery. We retrospectively reviewed data of 110 hemodialysis-dependent patients who underwent cardiac surgery between January 2006 and July 2016. 20 variables were evaluated for short- and long-term mortality prediction. Patients were divided into high and low prognostic nutritional index groups with values > 34 (n = 90) and ≤ 34 (n = 20), respectively. Preoperative characteristics and surgical outcomes were compared between both groups. Overall, the in-hospital mortality rate was 9% (n = 10) and the 1-, 3-, and 5-year actual survival rates were 69%, 58%, and 40%, respectively. Univariate analysis for hospital death revealed age ≥ 70 years, body mass index ≤ 18 kg/m
