Preoperative albumin-bilirubin score predicts short-term outcomes and long-term prognosis in colorectal cancer patients undergoing radical surgery.

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
backgroundThe albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score is a serum biochemical indicator of liver function and has been proven to have prognostic value in a variety of cancers. In colorectal cancer (CRC), a high ALBI score tends to be associated with poorer survival.
aimTo investigate the correlation between the preoperative ALBI score and outcomes in CRC patients who underwent radical surgery.
methodsPatients who underwent radical CRC surgery between January 2011 and January 2020 at a single clinical center were included. The ALBI score was calculated by the formula (log10 bilirubin × 0.66) + (albumin × -0.085), and the cutoff value for grouping patients was -2.8. The short-term outcomes, overall survival (OS), and disease-free survival (DFS) were calculated.
resultsA total of 4025 CRC patients who underwent radical surgery were enrolled in this study, and there were 1908 patients in the low ALBI group and 2117 patients in the high ALBI group. Cox regression analysis revealed that age, tumor size, tumor stage, ALBI score, and overall complications were independent risk factors for OS; age, tumor stage, ALBI score, and overall complications were identified as independent risk factors for DFS.
conclusionA high preoperative ALBI score is correlated with adverse short-term outcomes, and the ALBI score is an independent risk factor for OS and DFS in patients with CRC undergoing radical surgery.
