Geriatric nutritional risk index predicts postoperative outcomes in elderly patients with pancreatoduodenectomy: a propensity score-matched analysis.
Article in Gland surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: The Geriatric Nutrition Risk Index (GNRI) serves as a straightforward screening tool for predicting the likelihood of postoperative complications and mortality in elderly patients. This study aimed to investigate the association between GNRI and postoperative outcomes in elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Methods: We enrolled patients aged 65 years or older who underwent PD between January 2018 and March 2023. Patients were dichotomized into at-risk (GNRI ≤98) or no-risk (GNRI >98) groups. Propensity score matching was used to compare the baseline differences and postoperative outcomes between these two groups. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between GNRI and major morbidity (Clavien-Dindo scale with ≥ grade 3b complications). Results: There were 392 eligible patients included. Following propensity score matching, patients in the at-risk GNRI group had higher rates of major complication (13.2% Conclusions: We demonstrated that nutritional status evaluated by GNRI predicts postoperative complications after PD in elderly patients.
