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

objectivesIt has been reported that there is an association between the nutritional condition and the prognosis of cancer. Here, we evaluated the relation between the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and colorectal cancer (CRC).

methodsA total of 184 patients with CRC who underwent curative surgery from October 2011 to December 2012 at the Osaka University Hospital were investigated. According to the median PNI value of our data set, patients were classified into a high-PNI (≥46) group and a low-PNI (<46) group. The relationship between the PNI and the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) was analyzed by a Cox regression model.

resultsA low PNI was significantly associated with poor DFS (

conclusionsA low PNI is a prognostic indicator for recurrence and mortality in CRC. Nomograms constructed by clinicopathological factors including the PNI can provide individual prognostic outcomes.
