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

Poor nutritional status is a common problem in cancer patients at advanced age, but the prevalence and impact of malnutrition in hematological malignancies remains underinvestigated. To evaluate nutritional status in older adults over age 70 with newly diagnosed hematological malignancies, we enrolled 147 patients and assessed weight loss, food intake, Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA), and BMI. We compared nutritional status with demographic data, inflammation markers, and restrictions in multidimensional geriatric assessment. MNA classified 43% of patients being at risk of, and 15% having manifest malnutrition. A moderate/severe decrease in food intake was reported by 24% or 16%, a recent weight loss of 1 to 3 kg or >3 kg by 19% or 31%, and a BMI <23 kg/m
