Value analysis of preoperative NRS2002 and GLIM screening in predicting postoperative complications in patients with gastrointestinal malignancies.

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
Objective: To investigate and compare the predictive efficacy of the Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS2002) and the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria for postoperative complications in patients with gastrointestinal malignancies. Methods: This prospective cohort study enrolled patients with gastrointestinal malignancies scheduled for surgical resection at our institution from December 2019 to December 2024. Nutritional risk and status were assessed using NRS2002 and GLIM criteria within 24 h of admission. Data on postoperative complications, hospitalization expenses, length of hospital stay, and unplanned 30-day and 60-day readmissions were meticulously collected and analyzed using logistic regression and ROC curve analysis. Results: A total of 471 patients were included. Nutritional risk (NRS2002 ≥ 3) was identified in 45.01% ( Conclusion: Both NRS2002-defined nutritional risk and GLIM-defined malnutrition are significant independent predictors of postoperative complications in patients with gastrointestinal malignancies. The NRS2002 demonstrated slightly superior predictive ability for postoperative complications compared to the dichotomous GLIM diagnosis. These findings support the routine use of both tools for preoperative risk stratification to guide targeted nutritional interventions.
