Nutritional support protocol for patients with COVID-19.
Article in Clinical nutrition ESPEN, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
BACKGROUND &
aimsCOVID-19 is a hypercatabolic disease with possible pulmonary and gastrointestinal symptoms, and consequent deterioration of the nutritional status and the worst clinical prognosis. This study presents a protocol to guide the nutritional care of adult and elderly people non-critically and critically ill with COVID-19.
methodsA critical review of the literature was carried out in the databases PubMed, Scielo, Bireme, and Science Direct, in search of articles and guidelines that presented assessment criteria and nutritional conduct for COVID-19 and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), as well as guidelines for managing the symptoms presented by patients.
resultsThe results are recommendations based on the literature and the professional experience of nutritionists who provide nutritional assistance to individuals hospitalized with COVID-19 since the beginning of the pandemic in Brazil. We present tools and suggestions for assessing the nutritional status, calculating nutritional needs, initiating nutritional therapy and monitoring tolerance to it, nutritional monitoring during hospitalization, and guidelines for hospital discharge.
conclusionPatients with COVID-19 are at nutritional risk. A complete nutritional assessment (anthropometric, dietary, and laboratory assessment) enables the establishment of an individualized nutritional approach in order to contribute to better clinical and nutritional prognoses.
