The association between controlling nutritional status and postoperative pulmonary complications in patients with colorectal cancer.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) significantly impact surgical outcomes, and Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, a simple and easily available nutritional score, has been demonstrated to be significantly associated with postoperative patient outcomes and complications, including PPCs. However, there are few studies that specifically focus on patients undergoing radical surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 2,553 patients who underwent radical surgery for CRC at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. Patients were divided into three groups: normal nutrition group (CONUT≤1), mild malnutrition group (2 ≤ CONUT≤4), and moderate-to-severe malnutrition group (CONUT≥5). Risk factors for PPCs and all-cause mortality were evaluated by multivariate regression. In addition, we assessed surgical outcomes including ICU admission, hospital stay, 1-year mortality and tumor-related mortality. Results: The incidence of PPCs was 9.0% ( Conclusion: The preoperative CONUT score is a potential indicator for predicting PPCs and surgical outcomes in CRC patients.
