1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveObese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) face unique long-term nutritional risks following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. This study aims to evaluate postoperative nutritional status in this population, identify key preoperative predictive factors, and develop and validate a clinical scoring system for predicting the risk of postoperative malnutrition.

methodsThis single-center retrospective cohort study consecutively included obese T2DM patients (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 32.5 kg/m²) who underwent RYGB between January 2020 and January 2023. The primary outcome was a composite endpoint of malnutrition at 12 months postoperatively, defined as moderate anemia (hemoglobin < 100 g/L) or hypoalbuminemia (albumin < 30 g/L). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent predictors. Discrimination of the nomogram-based predictive model was assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Calibration was evaluated using bootstrap calibration plots.

resultsA total of 195 patients were included in the final analysis, with a 12-month postoperative malnutrition incidence of 31.8% (62/195). Female gender (odds ratio [OR] = 2.702, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.034–7.058) and diabetes duration ≥ 5 years (OR = 4.890, 95% CI: 1.416–16.894) were independent risk factors for postoperative malnutrition, whereas higher preoperative levels of albumin, hemoglobin, ferritin, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D were protective factors. The joint predictive model incorporating these six factors demonstrated excellent discriminative ability for predicting postoperative malnutrition and good calibration.

conclusionThe preoperative clinical risk prediction model based on six readily available indicators shows robust predictive performance, guiding individualized nutritional management.
