The geriatric nutritional risk index is related to adverse hospitalization outcomes in individuals undergoing cardiac 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
Malnutrition is linked to adverse outcomes in post-cardiac surgery patients. This study investigates the correlation between the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) and adverse hospital outcomes in patients following cardiac surgery. This retrospective study included elderly patients with heart disease who were admitted to the Department of Cardiology, Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022. Patients were divided into two groups based on the cut-off value (98 g/dL). Data from 407 patients were assessed, with 278 (68.3%) classified as having nutritional risk and 129 (31.7%) as having no nutritional risk. Notable distinctions were observed in body weight, BMI, and left ventricular ejection fraction (P < 0.05). Laboratory indicators indicated lower levels of serum albumin, lymphocytes, red blood cells, hemoglobin, admission blood glucose, and admission triglyceride in the nutritional risk group (P < 0.05). Neutrophils and serum creatinine were higher in the nutritional risk group (P < 0.05). Poor prognosis was prevalent in the nutrition risk group (64.7%), with higher incidences of adverse outcomes (P < 0.05). Univariate and multivariate studies showed that GNRI < 98 g/dL was an independent predictor of postoperative cardiac surgery. Nutritional risk was an important predictor of adverse hospital outcomes after the surgery.
