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

Hematologic malignancies are frequently complicated by malnutrition, a condition that remains underrecognized yet strongly associated with impaired treatment tolerance, immune recovery, and survival. Unlike solid tumors, hematologic malignancies are characterized by diffuse marrow and immune system involvement, rendering host metabolism highly vulnerable to tumor-driven inflammation and therapy-induced immune stress. Accumulating evidence indicates that nutritional deterioration in hematologic malignancies reflects a state of integrated immunometabolic vulnerability-driven by hyperinflammation, anabolic resistance, gastrointestinal injury, and psychosocial stress-rather than inadequate caloric intake alone. This review synthesizes current evidence on the biological basis, clinical assessment, and management of malnutrition in hematologic malignancies, with particular emphasis on hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and cellular therapies. We propose that nutritional care in hematologic malignancies should evolve from supportive supplementation toward mechanism-informed, precision nutritional strategies aimed at modulating host metabolism and immune function to improve clinical outcomes.
