The Relationship Between Nutrition Impact Symptoms, Intake Status, and Systemic Inflammation for Cancer Patients.
Article in Cancer management and research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: Cancer-related malnutrition (CRM) is characterized by nutrition impact symptoms (NIS), prominently reduced intake, and irreversible systemic inflammation (SI). This study aimed to use NIS as a phenotype to explore the etiological mechanisms of CRM and facilitate a more precise classification approach for CRM patients by symptomatic clusters. Patients and Methods: 147 CRM patients were included in this study. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used to identify the NIS clusters, analyze their regression factor score (RFS), and explore potential patient groups. Spearman correlation, Kruskal-Wallis tests, and regression analysis were used to analyze the correlation and interaction between RFS and nutrition, SI, and intake status. Results: EFA identified 4 factors: RFS-1 was significantly correlated with mid-arm circumference (MAC) ( Conclusion: This exploratory study identified 4 NIS clusters, 2 significantly related to SI and intake status. Based on CAM etiological mechanisms, 3 potential patient groups were explored, which established a robust phenotypic framework for subsequent large-scale investigations, addressing a critical gap in CRM research and providing a standardized phenotypic tool for future multi-center analyses. These efforts will contribute significantly to enhancing the prevention, treatment, and clinical management of CRM.
