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

purposePreoperative malnutrition is associated with postoperative complications, prolonged intensive care unit stay, and mortality, leading to functional disability after non-cardiac surgery. However, its effects on cardiac and thoracic aortic surgery outcomes remain unknown. We examined the effects of preoperative malnutrition on disability-free survival after surgery and assessed the perioperative 12-item World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS2.0) score based on the preoperative nutritional status.

methodsWe included individuals aged ≥ 55 years who underwent elective cardiac and/or thoracic aortic surgery between April 1, 2016 and December 28, 2018 in a tertiary center. The nutritional status was assessed preoperatively using the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form, with scores < 12 points indicating a poor nutritional status. The JapanSCORE2 was calculated for surgical risk prediction. Our primary outcome was disability-free survival 1 year after surgery (WHODAS2.0 score: < 16%). The odds ratio of poor nutritional status for disability-free survival was calculated using multiple logistic regression analysis after adjusting for age, JapanSCORE2, and duration of surgery.

resultsOne hundred patients were followed up for 1 year. Preoperatively, 41 of them had a poor nutritional status. The disability-free survival rates 1 year postoperatively were 46.3% (19/41) and 64.4% (38/59) in patients with and without poor preoperative nutritional status, respectively. The adjusted odds ratio of poor nutritional status for disability-free survival at 1 year after surgery was 0.42 (95% confidence interval, 0.17-0.99).

conclusionPatients with a poor preoperative nutritional status had less likely to show disability-free survival 1 year after cardiac and thoracic aortic surgery.
