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

backgroundThis study collected and analyzed clinical data on enteral nutrition therapy in neurocritical patients, developed and validated a risk prediction model for feeding intolerance (FI), and transformed the model into a visual risk scoring tool,provide a reference for clinical staff to screen for people at high risk of enteral nutrition feeding intolerance in neurocritically ill patients.

methodsUsing prospective study,440 eligible inpatients from a Chinese tertiary hospital (April-December 2022) were divided into derivation (70%) and validation (30%) cohorts.Univariate and binary logistic regression analyses were conducted to construct the FI prediction model, and a simplified risk assessment scale for FI in the neurological intensive care unit (NCU) was developed.

resultsFI incidence was 71.0% (213/300) in the derivation cohort. Independent risk factors included age, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, APACHE II score, mechanical ventilation, nasogastric tube feeding, hyperglycemia, and hypoalbuminemia (P < 0.05). The model showed excellent discrimination (AUC = 0.941, 95% CI:0.912-0.970) and calibration (Hosmer-Lemeshow P = 0.293), with 85.9% sensitivity and 90.8% specificity. In the validation cohort (140 patients, FI incidence was 72.1%), predictive accuracy was 82.9% (AUC = 0.924, 95% CI:0.878-0.970; sensitivity=96.0%, specificity=74.4%). The visual scoring tool achieved 84.3% accuracy (Kappa=0.700, P < 0.001), aligning with the original model.

conclusionThe early enteral nutrition FI risk prediction model and corresponding scoring table developed in this study showed good predictive performance and could serve as a useful reference for the clinical assessment of FI risk in neurocritical patients.
