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

As defined by the Global Leaders Malnutrition Initiative (GLIM), malnutrition is strongly associated with a lower quality of life and poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients. However, few studies have precisely explored the predictors of malnutrition, as defined by the GLIM, for overall survival (OS) after gastric cancer surgery in subgroups of patients stratified according to population characteristics. Our research aimed to analyze whether the predictors of malnutrition defined by the GLIM for postoperative OS in gastric cancer patients differ across subgroups. Patients who underwent radical gastric cancer surgery at our center between July 2014 and February 2019 were included in the study. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to minimize bias. The study population was divided into malnourished and normal groups based on whether they were malnourished as defined by the GLIM. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the risk factors affecting OS. The Kaplan-Meier curve and log-rank test were performed to determine the survival rate difference between subgroups. Overall, 1,007 patients were enrolled in the research. Multivariate analysis showed that malnutrition among the patients was 33.47%. Additionally, GLIM-defined malnutrition was an independent risk factor [hazard ratio (HR): 1.429,
