Efficacy and safety of intradialytic parenteral nutrition using ENEFLUID® in malnourished patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis: An exploratory, multicenter, randomized, open-label study.

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
The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of intradialytic parenteral nutrition (IDPN) using ENEFLUID® (310 kcal, 550 mL) in mild-moderate malnutrition patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis. A total of 40 adult patients with a Nutritional Risk Index-Japanese Hemodialysis (NRI-JH) score of 5-10 were enrolled in this multicenter, randomized, open-label study. Patients in the intervention group received IDPN using ENEFLUID® via the dialysis circuit 3 times a week for 12 weeks; those in the control group did not. The primary endpoint was change in serum transthyretin (TTR). The secondary endpoints were changes in nutritional laboratory tests, nutritional parameters, food intake, plasma amino acids, and blood glucose. For both groups, mean age (72.1±11.4 years) and BMI (20.3±3.0), and median NRI-JH score [7.0 (interquartile range, 6-8)], did not differ. One patient withdrew before intervention, leaving 20 intervention and 19 control patients. Mean (95% confidence interval) change in serum TTR (mg/dL) at 12 weeks did not differ between groups: Intervention, 1.0 (-1.1-3.2); Control, -0.3 (-2.4-1.9); Intragroup difference, 1.3 (-1.7-4.3); P = 0.41. The values reflecting protein intake at 12 weeks compared to those on the study initiation day increased in the intervention group [the changes of blood urea nitrogen, 9.4 (2.6-16.2) mg/dL; P = 0.007, and normalized protein catabolic rate, 0.10 (0.02-0.18) g/kg/day; P = 0.02]. Mean food protein intake (g/kg/day) at 12 weeks increased in the intervention group and decreased in the control group, and differed between groups: Intervention, 0.12 (-0.03-0.28); Control, -0.18 (-0.43-0.08); Inter-group difference, 0.30 (0.00-0.60); P = 0.050. No adverse events occurred. In patients with mild to moderate malnutrition receiving ENEFLUID® for 12 weeks as IDPN, serum TTR was not improved, decreases in protein intake was mitigated, no adverse events occurred.
