Dynamic changes in the body composition during chemotherapy for gastrointestinal tumors in the context of active nutrition intervention.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objective: To explore the dynamic changes in the body composition during chemotherapy in patients with gastrointestinal malignancies in the context of active nutrition intervention. Methods: Patients with gastrointestinal malignancies receiving first-line chemotherapy in the Department of Medical Oncology of Ordos Central Hospital from September 2019 to January 2022 were included in this study. The Nutritional Risk Screening form 2002, Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment form, bioelectrical impedance analysis, and dynamic changes in L3 skeletal muscle index (SMI) (L3SMI) were assessed at baseline and after chemotherapy. The recommended protocol of the Results: Fifty cases were enrolled in the study, and 38 cases completed the dynamic follow-ups. The average follow-up time was 125.63 d. In the context of active nutrition intervention, the prevalence of sarcopenia decreased from 26.3% before chemotherapy to 21.1% after chemotherapy. The average L3SMI decreased from 38.77 cm Conclusion: Active nutrition intervention might decrease the degree of reduction of L3SMI and the incidence of sarcopenia in patients with gastrointestinal tumors and raise the proportion of patients with stable or increased SMI during chemotherapy.
