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
purposeIntestinal ischemia in strangulated abdominal wall hernias is a life-threatening condition that requires early detection and timely intervention. Since both systemic inflammation and nutritional status play a crucial role in surgical outcomes, identifying reliable predictive markers is essential. This study explores the potential of albumin-based nutritional indices-the CALLY Index, Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), and modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS)-to assess their ability to predict the risk of intestinal ischemia and the need for surgical resection.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 125 patients who underwent surgery for incarcerated abdominal hernias between January 2015 and August 2024. Patients were categorized based on whether they had intestinal or omental ischemia. Key demographic data, perioperative findings, and laboratory parameters-including CRP, albumin, lymphocyte count, PNI, CALLY, and mGPS-were recorded. We performed univariate and multivariate regression analyses to identify independent risk factors, while ROC analysis was used to determine the optimal cutoff value for the CALLY Index.
resultsOut of 125 patients, 66 (52.8%) were female, and the median age was 67 (58-76) years. Intestinal ischemia was found in 73 (58.4%) of the patients, while 23 (18.4%) had only omental necrosis. In the multivariate regression analysis, GPS 2 (OR: 19.299, p = 0.015) and CALLY < 2.5 (OR: 5.397, p = 0.017) were identified as independent predictors of intestinal ischemia. ROC analysis showed that a CALLY value below 2.5 had strong predictive power (AUC: 0.828, 95% CI: 0.753-0.902, p < 0.001).
conclusionOur findings suggest that the CALLY Index and mGPS are valuable tools for predicting intestinal ischemia in strangulated abdominal hernias. By incorporating inflammatory and nutritional markers into risk assessment, these indices can assist in early diagnosis and timely surgical decision-making.
