Predicting Overall Survival Using Preoperative Nutritional and Inflammation Status for Colorectal Cancer.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
aimIt has been shown that nutritional status and inflammation correlate with survival in patients with various cancer types. In this study, we evaluated several kinds of nutritional and inflammation parameters in preoperative blood samples and constructed new risk model predicting survival in patients with colorectal cancer. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe retrospectively examined 286 patients with stage I-III colorectal cancer who had undergone curative resection at Teikyo University Hospital. The association between overall survival (OS) and nutritional status and inflammation factors were examined using Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank tests.
resultsSerum albumin, cholesterol and C-reactive protein concentration, neutrophil count and platelet count were shown to be correlated with OS. We constructed a new risk model (nutrition inflammation status, NIS) using these factors, and compared it with other nutrition and inflammation models.
conclusionNIS was useful as a new model for predicting OS in patients undergoing curative resection for colorectal cancer, compared with known models.
