Association between TMSE/MoCA and MIS/NAF in ESKD patients undergoing hemodialysis: a cross-sectional study.

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
backgroundBoth cognitive impairment and malnutrition are common in hemodialysis (HD) patients and are associated with increased hospitalization rates, infection, poor clinical outcomes, and mortality. The study investigated the association between cognitive and nutrition status among end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis.
methodsIn this cross-sectional study, we enrolled 115 patients with ESKD who underwent regular hemodialysis (HD). Data collection included the use of screening tools for mild cognitive impairment (MCI), specifically Thai Mental State Examination (TMSE) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). In addition, we collected data using nutritional screening tools including Malnutrition Inflammation Score (MIS) and Nutrition Alert Form (NAF). Our primary outcome was to demonstrate whether there was a relationship between TMSE/MoCA and MIS/NAF scores in this population. Secondary outcomes were a prevalence of MCI and malnutrition status in ESKD patients, an association between TMSE and MoCA with other surrogate nutritional markers, and factors affecting MCI in such patients.
resultsA total of 109 patients undergoing HD completed our protocol. Their mean age was 63.42 (± 15.82) years, and 51.38% were male. Mean TMSE and MoCA were 23.98 (± 5.06) points and 18.3 (± 6.40) points, respectively. The prevalence of TMSE ≤ 23 and MoCA ≤ 24 were 39.45% and 83.49%, respectively. TMSE had a statistically significant negative correlation with MIS (R
conclusionNutritional parameters, including MIS score, NAF score, serum albumin, lean tissue mass, and lean tissue index, significantly correlate with TMSE and MoCA.
