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

purpose of this reviewAcute leukemia (AL) is a hematological neoplasm with rapid progression that affects nutritional status of patients. Assessing nutrition in patients with haematological malignancies poses challenges due to the rapid progression of the disease, the variety of methods for evaluating malnutrition. In this review we will provide evidence of the need of early malnutrition diagnosis thru timely assessment and the implications of malnutrition in patients evolution in patients with AL. RECENT

findingsThe prevalence of malnutrition ranging from 15 to 26.5% among patients with AL. It is well known that inflammation and cytokine production have been recognized as potential mechanisms of CCS in hematologic malignancies. Regardless of the mechanism underlying Cancer Cachexia Syndrome (CCS) in AML, patients undergoing conditioning chemotherapy and during transplant or antineoplastic treatment. In addition to this, patients with AL undergoing chemotherapy frequently face two main challenges: oral mucositis (OM) and neutropenic colitis (NC). Both conditions challenge nutrition intake and nutrients absorption which make them more susceptible to have nutritional deficits. Malnutrition in patients with acute leukemia face a higher risk of therapy failure, increased rates of relapse, and higher mortality rates. Nutritional status impact patient's prognosis in many ways, malnutrition increases risk of antineoplastic treatment toxicities, hospital stay, and cost, as well reduces quality of life and this condition worsens patient's prognosis.
