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

Introduction: Several nutritional indicators, including the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) score and the controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score, have been shown to predict the prognosis of patients with glioblastoma. The present meta-analysis was performed to further evaluate the prognostic value of PNI and CONUT scores in patients with glioblastoma. Method: The PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science databases were comprehensively searched for studies that evaluated the ability of PNI and CONUT scores to predict the prognosis of patients with glioblastoma. Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated by univariate and multivariate analyses. Result: Ten articles were included in this meta-analysis, involving 1406 patients with glioblastoma. Univariate analyses showed that a high PNI score was predictive of greater overall survival (OS; HR 0.50; 95% CI, 0.43, 0.58; I Conclusion: PNI scores and CONUT scores have prognostic value in patients with glioblastoma. Additional large-scale studies, however, are required to confirm these results.
