Evaluation of the Relationship Between Sarcopenia and the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index in Elderly Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in International journal of endocrinology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Aim: We sought to evaluate the association of the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), which assesses nutritional status, and sarcopenia among older individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: We enrolled 292 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients aged 60 years and above in this cross-sectional study. This study took place at Şişli Hamidiye Etfal Training and Research Hospital (Istanbul, Turkey) between April 2024 and December 2024. European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People-2 ( Results: The average age was 72 years (range: 60-99). Of the 292 patients, 139 were male and 153 were female. Macrovascular complications and microvascular complications, such as neuropathy and nephropathy, were more common in sarcopenic patients. Low GNRI (< 98) was observed to be more in sarcopenic patients ( Conclusions: Sarcopenia was more common in elderly type 2 diabetic patients with low GNRI. Our study emphasizes the high rate of malnutrition among sarcopenic patients, with a need for regular screening programs and the determination of elderly subjects requiring nutritional support. GNRI may serve as a screening indicator for the detection of malnutrition and sarcopenia in older diabetic individuals who are hospitalized.
