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

In 2018, the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition consortium published global consensus diagnostic criteria for malnutrition and highlighted the association between malnutrition and poor postoperative outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal cancer. The aforementioned criteria consist of phenotypic and etiologic criteria to diagnose malnutrition in individuals who undergo conventional screening to determine the at-risk population. Recent studies have reported the usefulness of prediction of postoperative outcomes using body mass index, weight loss, and reduced muscle mass as phenotypic criteria. Reduced muscle mass is an essential diagnostic criterion for sarcopenia, which is associated with poor outcomes in patients with cancer. The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria define reduced muscle mass as undernutrition. Malnutrition diagnosed based on the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria is an important risk factor for postoperative complications and also an independent poor prognostic factor for long-term outcomes; greater severity of malnutrition is associated with poorer outcomes. The current Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria for malnutrition accurately predict outcomes, including postoperative complications and long-term prognosis; however, a revision may be warranted to ensure consistency with the diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia. Patients diagnosed with malnutrition based on the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition criteria should be targeted for nutritional intervention. Further accumulation of evidence is necessary to conclusively establish the role of nutritional interventions in patients with malnutrition to improve postoperative complications and long-term outcomes.
