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

backgroundGeriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) has been widely used to assess the nutritional status in a variety of human pathological conditions, but the prognostic value of the GNRI in malignancies has not been evinced.

methodsRelevant studies updated on Jul 27, 2019, were retrieved in available databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane library, Chinese CNKI, and Chinese Wan-fang. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted and pooled by using STATA 14.

resultsA total of 15 studies involving 8,046 subjects were included in this meta-analysis. Meta-analysis results evinced that low GNRI was associated with poor OS (HR = 1.95, 95% CI: 1.49-2.56,

conclusionsIn summary, GNRI is associated poor prognosis in human malignancies, and GNRI should be used as a predictive indicator of adverse outcomes during malignancy treatment.
