Association with controlling nutritional status score and disease activity of ulcerative colitis.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
objectiveTo explore the association between the controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score and disease activity in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC).
methodsThis retrospective study enrolled patients with UC. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were collected and compared. The CONUT score was obtained for each patient. The association between the CONUT score and laboratory parameters was analysed and the ability of the score to assess disease activity was evaluated.
resultsA total of 182 patients with UC were enrolled. Patients with active disease showed significantly increased inflammatory biomarkers and decreased nutritional biomarkers compared with patients in remission. Malnourished individuals had significantly elevated inflammatory biomarkers and significantly reduced haemoglobin, prealbumin and retinol-binding protein. The CONUT score was inversely correlated with haemoglobin, prealbumin, retinol-binding protein and was positively correlated with faecal calprotectin, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio and platelet/lymphocyte ratio. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.655 (95% confidence interval, 0.557-0.752). The optimal cut-off value was 1.5 points, with a sensitivity of 75.7% and a specificity of 50.0%.
conclusionThe CONUT score may evaluate the inflammatory response and nutritional status of UC patients, so it could be a potential biomarker to assess disease activity in UC.
