Development and Evaluation of Nutrition Screening Tool in Patients with Hepatitis B-Related Cirrhosis: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Risk management and healthcare policy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
aimMalnutrition is common in cirrhotic patients; however, there is no gold standard for nutritional assessment for this population. The aim of this study was to develop a novel nutritional screening tool based on objective indicators for cirrhotic patients chronically infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV).
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study. Patients with hepatitis B-related cirrhosis were recruited. Malnutrition was diagnosed by the presence of any of the following conditions: Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 score greater than 3 points, Subjective Global Assessment grade B or C, and body mass index (BMI) <18.5 kg/m
resultsAmong the 231 studied cases, 92 (39%) were malnourished. Malnourished patients had significantly lower serum albumin, BMI and hand grip strength levels, but higher serum creatinine level and Child-Pugh grade. Two models were developed based on these variables. The nomogram model had a sensitivity of 0.696, a specificity of 0.820 and an accuracy of 0.813. The AUROC of nomogram model was 0.813 (95% CI: 0.758-0.869,
conclusionThe nomogram model and decision tree model developed in this study may aid assessing nutritional status for cirrhotic patients with HBV.
