Nutritional assessment and malnutrition in multiple sclerosis.

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
Malnutrition is often identified in patients in chronic diseases and dysphagia is the major contributing factor. The evaluation of the nutritional status included assessment of the swallowing abilities, food intake and lifestyle. Weight is the first parameter for suspecting a malnutrition, it is considered significant when weight loss major that 10% of normal weight occurs over a period of six months. The objective of evaluating the nutritional status of the patient is to identify metabolic alteration that may influence nutritional status. Hematological parameters and the assessment of type and quantities of food consumed are the first step of clinical approach. A number of questionnaires, such as Subjective Global assessment, Mini nutritional assessment or Malnutritional Universal screening tool, have been developed in order to score the level of malnutrition. Caloric needs can be easily calculated using formula for catabolism or protein and water needs and intake. Finally is crucial to underline the importance of multidisciplinary assessment.
