The role of nutrition-based index in predicting survival of breast cancer patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 6 of them syntheses 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
Background: Prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) are two model that incorporates the role of inflammation and nutrition factors to predict the progression of tumor. The primary objective of this investigation is to examine the ability of PNI and CONUT score for predicting the survival in breast cancer patients. Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted on the Cochrane Library, Scopus, Europe PMC, and Medline databases up until August 14th, 2023, utilizing a combination of relevant keywords. This review incorporates literature that examines the relationship between PNI, CONUT, and survival in breast cancer. We employed random-effect models to analyze the hazard ratio (HR) and present the outcomes together with their corresponding 95 % confidence intervals (CI). Results: A total of sixteen studies were incorporated. The results of our meta-analysis indicated that high PNI was associated with better overall survival (OS) (HR 0.38; 95%CI: 0.28-0.51, Conclusions: This study suggests the prognostic role of both PNI and CONUT score for predicting survival in breast cancer patients.
