Predictive role of preoperative geriatric nutritional risk index for clinical outcomes in surgical gastric cancer patients: A meta-analysis.
Review in Frontiers in surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Purpose: The association between the preoperative Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) and postoperative short-term and long-term clinical outcomes remains unclear. The aim of this meta-analysis was to identify the predictive role of the preoperative GNRI for postoperative clinical outcomes of gastric cancer patients based on current evidence. Methods: Several databases were searched up to July 28, 2022. The primary and secondary outcomes were long-term survival, including overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS) and postoperative complications. Meanwhile, the hazard ratios (HRs) and relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were combined to assess the association of preoperative GNRI with postoperative survival and complications separately. The results Eight studies involving 4,189 patients were included, and they were all from Japan. The pooled results demonstrated that a lower preoperative GNRI was significantly related to worse OS (HR = 1.72, 95% CI: 1.18-2.53, Conclusion: Preoperative GNRI is related to postoperative short-term and long-term clinical outcomes of Japanese gastric cancer patients, and a lower GNRI predicts poorer prognosis.
