Malnutrition Is Highly Prevalent in Patients With Chronic Pancreatitis and Characterized by Loss of Skeletal Muscle Mass but Absence of Impaired Physical Function.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04474743 (Multi-center, Controlled Cross-sectional Analysis of the Phenotype of Malnutrition in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis, Chronic Pancreatitis and Short Bowel Syndrome), which is not on this map.

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

Abstract
Background/Aims: Patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) have an increased risk of malnutrition, a condition linked to reduced muscle mass and physical performance. We have investigated the risk factors, phenotypic presentation, and health implications associated with malnutrition in CP. Materials and Methods: In a multicenter cross-sectional study we recruited patients with confirmed CP and healthy volunteers as a control group. Malnutrition was diagnosed according to the criteria proposed by the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition. We performed detailed examinations of body composition and physical function as well as testing of routine blood parameters and markers of inflammation. Results: We included 66 patients [mean (±SD) age: 56.0 (±14.5) years; 51 males] and an equal number of age- and sex-matched controls. Moderate malnutrition was diagnosed in 21% ( Conclusion: Malnutrition is a frequent complication of CP characterized by loss of skeletal muscle mass. As this condition becomes evident only at an advanced stage, regular testing for altered body composition is recommended. Suitable biomarkers and the link between loss of muscle mass and physical function require further investigation.
