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

objectivesThis study aimed to assess the prevalence and risk factors associated with disease-related malnutrition (DRM) in hospitalized patients using the Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) and Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria. Additionally, we sought to identify key determinants of moderate and severe malnutrition.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 1036 adult patients hospitalized in a tertiary care hospital between August 2019 and November 2020. Nutritional status was evaluated using both the SGA and GLIM criteria. Data on demographic characteristics, comorbidities, dietary intake, and gastrointestinal symptoms were collected. Logistic regression models were employed to identify risk factors for DRM, and multivariate analysis was used to determine independent predictors.

resultsThe prevalence of DRM was 63.3% according to GLIM and 64.8% according to SGA. Moderate malnutrition was observed in 22.6% of patients, while 40.7% were classified as having severe malnutrition, and severe weight loss was noted in 34.5% of the subjects. The key risk factors for DRM included male sex (OR 1.67,

conclusionsThe high prevalence of DRM in hospitalized patients emphasizes the importance of routine nutritional screening and personalized interventions. Proactive management of key risk factors such as inadequate intake and gastrointestinal symptoms is crucial to mitigating malnutrition and improving patient outcomes.
