Coexistence of GLIM-defined malnutrition and sarcopenia have negative effect on the clinical outcomes in the elderly gastric cancer patients after radical gastrectomy.

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: Malnutrition and sarcopenia are common in elderly gastric cancer patients, which are also interrelated and affect each other. We aimed to determine the characteristics of coexistence of malnutrition and sarcopenia in the elderly gastric cancer patients and investigate the predictive roles of malnutrition and sarcopenia on clinical outcomes. Methods: Between 2014 and 2019, a total of 742 elderly gastric cancer patients were enrolled. Malnutrition and sarcopenia were diagnosed according to the most recent diagnostic criteria. Patients were divided into four groups according to presence of these two symptoms. Clinical characteristics, short- and long-term outcomes were compared among four groups. The independent risk factors for complications and survival were evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: Of all patients, 34.8% were diagnosed with malnutrition and 34.0% were diagnosed with sarcopenia. Patients with both malnutrition and sarcopenia had the highest rate of total ( Conclusions: Malnutrition and sarcopenia had superimposed negative effects on elderly gastric cancer patients. Preoperative geriatric evaluation including screening for malnutrition and sarcopenia are recommended for all elderly gastric cancer patients for accurate treatment strategy.
