Geriatric nutritional risk index and C-reactive protein: prognostic impact in transcatheter aortic valve implantation.

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
The impact of inflammatory and nutritional indices in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) remains controversial. Therefore, we aimed to analyze the prognostic impact of Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in these patients. We included 122 patients who underwent elective TAVI for aortic valve stenosis (AS) between April 2017 and May 2023. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality, and secondary outcomes were major adverse cerebral/cardiovascular events (MACCEs). Patients with a low GNRI, high CRP levels, and a combination of a low GNRI and high CRP levels exhibited significantly high all-cause mortality. The GNRI and CRP levels alone were significantly associated with late mortality in the univariate analysis; however, this trend was absent in the multivariate analysis. The combination of a low GNRI and high CRP levels was significantly associated with late mortality in the univariate and multivariate analyses. The GNRIs at 6 months showed no significant changes, and the low GNRI in patients before surgery persisted after TAVI. There was no association between low GNRI after TAVI and late mortality or MACCE. The combination of malnutrition (indicated by a low GNRI) and inflammation (indicated by high CRP levels) may be a risk factor for long-term mortality in patients undergoing TAVI for AS.
