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
This study reveals that the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) is a strong predictor of fragility fracture risk in older adults living with HIV in China. Regular nutritional assessment using GNRI could identify high-risk individuals, potentially guiding interventions to reduce fracture risk in this vulnerable population.
backgroundIn China, a significant proportion of the PLWH are older adults, which differs from other regions. Malnutrition and fragility fractures are major concerns in this population. This study aimed to investigate the utility of the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) as a predictor of fragility fracture risk in older adults living with HIV in China.
methodsThis retrospective longitudinal cohort study included older adults living with HIV (aged ≥ 50 years) from the Department of Orthopedics at Ditan Hospital in Beijing, China, between January 2010 and September 2023. Baseline GNRI scores were calculated using serum albumin, height, and weight, and patients were followed up for the occurrence of fragility fractures. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the association between GNRI and fragility fracture risk, adjusting for potential confounders.
resultsA total of 608 patients were included in the study (mean age: 60.3 years, 84.2% male). During the median 5-year follow-up period, 117 patients (19.2%) experienced fragility fractures. After adjusting for all potential covariates, patients with higher GNRI scores had a significantly lower risk of fragility fractures. The aHR for GNRI < 92 g/L was 3.28 (95% CI: 1.35-7.97, p = 0.009) compared to GNRI ≥ 92. RCS analysis revealed a significant inverse relationship between GNRI and fragility fracture risk, with the non-linearity diminishing after full adjustment for covariates.
conclusionThe GNRI is a valuable tool for predicting fragility fracture risk in older adults living with HIV in China. Routine assessment of nutritional status using the GNRI could help identify high-risk individuals and guide appropriate interventions to reduce fragility fracture risk in this vulnerable population.
