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

Nutritional status is important in determining the outcome of surgical patients. This is particularly so in patients undergoing gastrointestinal (GI) surgical procedures. It is important for the GI surgeon to be always aware that he has to assess the nutritional status of his patient, provide supplementation when required and have the means to get enteral and/or parenteral access when required. He must have the knowledge to choose the right route and formula for nutritional support. This evidence-based review gives an overview of the subject with the purpose of increasing awareness about the science of surgical nutrition.
