The impact of Naples prognostic score on cognitive impairment in hemodialysis patients: a multicenter study.
Article in Renal failure, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundMalnutrition and inflammation are prevalent in hemodialysis (HD) patients and linked to cognitive impairment (CI). Naples prognostic score (NPS) is a comprehensive measure of patients' inflammation and nutritional status. This study is to evaluate the association of NPS and CI risk in HD patients.
methodsTwo thousand seven hundred twenty-five HD patients were recruited and NPS score obtained based on albumin, total cholesterol (TC), lymphocytes, neutrophils, and monocytes. Cognitive function was assessed with Mini-Mental State Examination score (MMSE). Logistic regression models, interactive analyses were conducted.
resultsAmong 2725 HD patients, the prevalence of CI is 33.8%, the mean MMSE score was 26.9 ± 3.9. After adjusting clinical confounders, NPS showed a positive associated with CI both as a continuous variable (OR = 1.120, 95% CI 1.029-1.221,
conclusionsNPS was associated with cognitive impairment in HD patients with a positive dose-response effect.
