Nutritional status and prevalence of anemia in patients with Crohn's disease after surgery: a multicenter cross-sectional study in China.

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: Malnutrition and anemia are major concerns that significantly impact quality of life and disease activity in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) following surgical resection. However, comprehensive data on nutritional status and anemia in post-surgical CD patients remain limited. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition and anemia in a multi-center cohort of CD patients after surgery. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, patients with CD who underwent bowel resection across 20 provinces in China were evaluated for nutritional status and anemia. Biochemical parameters were collected and analyzed to explore their associations with nutritional status and anemia. Results: A total of 160 patients, with a mean age of 37.6 years and 63.8% male, were enrolled. Malnutrition was observed in 47.5% of patients, with 56.3% at risk of malnutrition post-surgery. Malnourished patients exhibited lower nutritional indicators and more severe disease activity. Anemia was detected in 60.6% of patients, with 79.4% having mild anemia and 20.6% moderate anemia. Patients with post-surgical anemia showed elevated inflammatory markers and increased disease activity. Both malnutrition and anemia were significantly associated with reduced quality of life ( Conclusion: Malnutrition and anemia were highly prevalent and negatively impacted patients with CD following surgery. Screening and early preventive management of malnutrition and anemia were critical components of postoperative care in CD.
