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

backgroundCOVID-19 impacts the nutritional status of patients. There is limited longitudinal research on the impact of nutrition care provided to COVID-19 patients in the intensive care unit (ICU).

objectiveWe assessed the real-world effectiveness of the nutrition care process (NCP) used by registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) on mortality in COVID-19 ICU patients.

methodsRDNs in 8 ICUs throughout the United States utilized the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Health Informatics Infrastructure (ANDHII) registry to document standard care practices, per the NCP, used with COVID-19 patients admitted from April 2021 to April 2022. Mortality, the primary outcome, was reported at the last visit. A multivariable logistic regression model, adjusted for sex, age, body mass index (BMI), and number of visits, estimated mortality risk as a function of the NCP problem status (improving/resolved).

resultsParticipants (

conclusionWe show for the first time in a real-word setting that implementing the NCP to identify and address nutritional problems during ICU admission is associated with lower mortality risk in critical COVID-19 patients. Due to limitations in longitudinal registries and use of logistic models, future larger-scale cohorts and clinical trials are needed.
