Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index and First-Year Mortality in Incident Hemodialysis Patients.

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
objectiveThe Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index is a simple nutritional screening method, and this study aimed to investigate the association between the initial Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index and all-cause mortality in incident patients in the first year after the initiation of hemodialysis. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study is a retrospective cohort study and used the Korean Renal Data System database. Patients who were eligible for Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index assessment and underwent hemodialysis from January 2016 to December 2019 were included. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality, and outcome evaluation was performed in December 2020. A Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze the association between the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index and mortality.
resultsA total of 10,545 patients were included, and the mean age was 63.9 ± 3.7 years. The patients were divided into four groups by the quartile of the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index with a mean value of 96.2 ± 8.2. During the study period, 545 (5.2%) deaths occurred. The surviving patients had higher Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index values than ones who died in the first year of hemodialysis initiation (96.6 ± 7.5 vs. 88.2 ± 9.3,
conclusionsThese findings suggest that a low Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (<91.8) is associated with first-year all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients who start hemodialysis and may be a useful and reproducible tool for assessing prognoses in this population.
