Three Nutritional Indices Are Effective Predictors of Mortality in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Foot Ulcers.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Introduction: Malnutrition has been associated with mortality in various diseases. This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the relationship between three nutritional indices and all-cause mortality in patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). Materials and Methods: A total of 771 patients diagnosed with DFUs in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from 2015 to 2019 were included in this retrospective cohort study. Patients were classified as high nutritional risk groups or low nutritional risk groups according to the optimal cut-off values of the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and controlling nutritional status (CONUT), respectively. The associations of three nutritional indices with all-cause mortality were evaluated by multivariable Cox regression analyses. Results: Log-rank tests indicated that patients with high nutritional risk had lower overall survival rates (all Discussion: The present study demonstrated that three nutritional indices were effective predictors of all-cause mortality in patients with DFUs. Routine screening for malnutrition using any of the three nutritional indices might be a simple and effective way to identify high-risk patients with DFUs. GNRI can be used as an independent prognostic indicator in patients with severe DFUs.
