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/
aimPost-gastrectomy lean body mass (LBM) decrease has a significant negative impact on postoperative survival in patients with cancer. This study investigated the effect of intake of at least one-third of the daily protein requirement at breakfast on the maintenance of LBM in patients during the first month post-gastrectomy. PATIENTS AND
methodsAmong patients with gastric cancer who underwent curative distal gastrectomy between April 2011 and December 2018, without adjuvant chemotherapy, we evaluated 401 patients who had consumed more than the daily protein requirement in the first month postoperatively, using the FFQW82 nutrition intake questionnaire. Patients were divided into those who consumed more (≥1/3 intake group, n=160) and those who consumed less than one-third of the daily protein requirement at breakfast (<1/3 intake group, n=241). We compared the LBM reduction rate at one month postoperatively between groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine clinicopathological factors predicting LBM reduction at one month postoperatively.
resultsThe LBM reduction rate at one month post-curative distal gastrectomy was significantly higher in the <1/3 intake group than in the ≥1.3 intake group (p=0.01) at breakfast. Multivariate analysis showed that morning protein intake below one-third of the daily requirement independently predicted LBM reduction (odds ratio=1.75, 95% confidence interval=1.14-2.68, p<0.01).
conclusionConsuming at least one-third of the daily protein requirement at breakfast may be effective in maintaining LBM in patients undergoing curative distal gastrectomy. These results may be very important for prognosis, since maintaining LBM influences the continuation of adjuvant chemotherapy and thus survival after curative resection in patients with gastric cancer.
