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

Nutritional status is an important prognostic factor in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score has shown promise in predicting outcomes in various malignancies; however, its role in autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with MM remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the significance of pre-transplant CONUT scores in predicting post-transplant engraftment kinetics and early complications in patients with MM undergoing ASCT. This single-center, retrospective study analyzed 59 multiple myeloma patients who underwent ASCT between 1 October 2022, and 1 July 2024. Pre-transplant CONUT scores were calculated, and their associations with various post-transplant outcomes were assessed using statistical analyses. Higher CONUT scores were independently associated with longer neutrophil engraftment times (
