Association Between Dietary Vitamin K Intake With Cancer Cachexia and Mortality: NHANES 1999-2018.

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
Research on the association between the development of cancer cachexia and dietary nutrient intake remains insufficient. We discussed the screening of dietary intake risks for cancer cachexia and further investigated the impact of vitamin K on the prognosis of cancer cachexia survivors. We ultimately analyzed 3489 NHANES participants across 10 cycles. Multivariate logistic regression analysis and restricted cubic spline (RCS) methods were used to explore the relationship between the intake of most dietary nutrients and the incidence of cancer cachexia. Further, multivariate Cox regression analysis, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and RCS analysis were employed to examine the association between vitamin K intake and mortality among cancer cachexia survivors. The multivariate logistic regression model revealed that vitamin K, dietary fiber, β-carotene, food folate, and magnesium might increase the risk of cancer cachexia. In contrast, energy, α-carotene, retinol, lycopene, iron, and copper might reduce the risk of cancer cachexia. Further RCS analysis showed an inverse U-shaped relationship between vitamin K intake and the incidence of cancer cachexia. Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that the high vitamin K intake group could reduce the risk of all-cause mortality (HR = 0.71; 95% CI, 0.60-0.84;
