Prevalence and Impact of Malnutrition in Hospitalizations Among Celiac Diseases: A Nationwide Analysis.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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/
aimsCeliac disease (CD) is a T-cell-mediated gluten sensitivity that results in villous atrophy in the small intestine, leading to chronic malabsorption. Patients with celiac disease are prone to malnutrition. We assessed the impact of malnutrition on in-hospital outcomes in patients with CD. MATERIALS AND
methodsPatients with a primary discharge diagnosis of CD between January 2016 and December 2019 were included in the National Inpatient Sample Database. Data were collected on patient demographics, hospital characteristics, the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), and concomitant comorbidities. The association between malnutrition and outcomes, including mortality, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), sepsis, acute kidney injury (AKI), length of stay (LOS), and total hospitalization charges (THC), was analyzed using the multivariate regression model.
resultsA total of 187310 patients with CD were included in the analysis. Patients with CD and malnutrition had a higher risk of mortality (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.08; p<0.001), AKI (aOR=1.18, p=0.003), and DVT (aOR=1.53; p<0.001) compared to patients with CD without malnutrition. No significant difference was noted in the rates of sepsis and PE. Patients with malnutrition also had a prolonged LOS (2.89 days; p<0.001) and higher THC ($22252.18; p<0.001) compared to patients without malnutrition. DISCUSSION: Patients with CD and malnutrition are at high risk of worse outcomes. Early identification of malnutrition in CD can help prevent morbidity and mortality. Even strict adherence to a gluten-free diet has been associated with malnutrition. Further studies identifying factors associated with malnutrition in CD and the impact of interventions to prevent and treat malnutrition are encouraged.
