1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionThe prevalences of malnutrition and sarcopenia in patients with IBD are not precisely known, and nutritional assessment is not standardized. We assessed the prevalence and risk factors of these conditions in outpatients and their impact on clinical outcomes.

methodsThis prospective longitudinal study considered patients who had IBD for at least one year, were attending a tertiary IBD center, and were followed for the subsequent year.

resultsIn a sample of 158 consecutive patients (96 with Crohn's disease and 62 with ulcerative colitis), the prevalence of malnutrition, according to GLIM criteria, was 13.3%. For identifying patients at risk of malnutrition, the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool demonstrated better accuracy, (sensitivity 88.9 (65.3-98.6) and specificity 90.2 (83.8-93.4)) than the SaskIBD-NR questionnaire (sensitivity 69.3 (41.1-86.7) and specificity 60.9 (60.9-76.8)). The prevalence of sarcopenia was 34.2%. Considering clinical outcomes, sarcopenia at baseline was significantly associated with hospital admission within a year (

conclusionsMalnutrition and sarcopenia were present in about one-third of IBD patients. Awareness should be raised among physicians caring for IBD patients about the need to evaluate patients' nutritional statuses to help patients achieve a better quality of life.
