A clinical investigation of the association between perioperative oral management and prognostic nutritional index in patients with digestive and urinary cancers.

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
Background: The prognostic nutritional index (pni) is a simple metric calculated using serum albumin and the peripheral lymphocyte count. It was reported that a low pni score is significantly associated with major postoperative complications and poor prognosis. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of perioperative oral management (pom) on the perioperative pni profiles of patients with digestive system or urinary cancers. Study Design: The medical records of 181 patients with cancer who underwent surgery and for whom a pni could be calculated were retrospectively reviewed. Results: The intervention rate with pom was 34.8%. The median preoperative pni score was 48.25 in all patients with a pom intervention [25% to 75% interquartile range (iqr): 44.38-54.13] and 47.25 in those without an intervention (iqr: 42.0-53.5). Compared with patients not receiving pom, those who received pom had significantly higher pni scores from the early postoperative period ( Conclusions: Perioperative oral management interventions might have positive effects on the postoperative pni scores of patients with cancer.
