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

Objective: The assessment of nutritional status has been recognized as crucial in the treatment of geriatric cancer patients. The objective of this study is to determine the clinical predictive value of the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) in predicting the short-term and long-term prognosis of elderly rectal cancer (RC) patients who undergo surgical treatment after neoadjuvant therapy. Methods: Between January 2014 and December 2020, the clinical materials of 639 RC patients aged ≥70 years who underwent surgical treatment after neoadjuvant therapy were retrospectively analysed. Propensity score matching was performed to adjust for baseline potential confounders. Logistic regression analysis and competing risk analysis were conducted to evaluate the correlation between the GNRI and the risk of postoperative major complications and cumulative incidence of cancer-specific survival (CSS). Nomograms were then constructed for postoperative major complications and CSS. Additionally, 203 elderly RC patients were enrolled between January 2021 and December 2022 as an external validation cohort. Results: Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that GNRI [odds ratio = 1.903, 95% confidence intervals (CI): 1.120-3.233, Conclusion: The GNRI is a simple and effective tool for predicting the risk of postoperative major complications and the long-term prognosis of elderly RC patients who undergo surgical treatment after neoadjuvant therapy.
