Transpyloric enteral nutrition in the critically ill child with renal failure.
Article in Intensive care medicine, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveTo study the efficacy and tolerance of transpyloric enteral nutrition (TEN) in the critically ill child with acute renal failure (ARF).
designProspective observational study.
settingPaediatric intensive care unit. PATIENTS: Critically ill children with ARF who received TEN were included in the study. They were compared with the remaining 473 critically ill children receiving TEN in this period. Tolerance of nutrition and gastrointestinal complications were assessed.
interventionTranspyloric enteral nutrition. MEASUREMENTS AND
resultsFifty-three critically ill children with ARF aged between 3 days and 17 years received TEN. Children with ARF more frequently received parenteral nutrition before TEN (56.6%) than the other patients (17.5%). The incidence of shock, hepatic alterations and mortality was significantly higher in patients with ARF than in the remaining children. In children with ARF the mean duration of the TEN was 16.5-27.3 days and the maximum caloric intake was 77-26.7 kcal/kg/day. Thirteen patients (24.5%) presented gastrointestinal complications, 9 (17%) abdominal distension and/or excessive gastric residue, 5 (9.4%) diarrhoea, 1 necrotising enterocolitis and 1 duodenal perforation. The frequency of gastrointestinal complications was significantly higher in children with ARF. TEN was definitive suspended in five patients due to gastrointestinal complications. Four of these patients were treated with continuous renal replacement therapy. Thirty percent of patients died during TEN. In only one patient was the death related to complications of the nutrition.
conclusionsCritically ill children with ARF tolerate TEN, although the incidence of gastrointestinal complications is higher than in other critically ill children.
