The role of diminishing appetite and serum nesfatin-1 level in patients with burn wound infection.
Article in Iranian Red Crescent medical journal, 2013. 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
backgroundThe burn wound represents a susceptible site for opportunistic colonization by organisms of endogenous and exogenous origin. Diminishing appetite is known to occur in patients with burn infection, yet its underlying reason is not fully understood. We have examined the levels of nesfatin 1, a protein that we consider to be a potential new treatment target for the solution of appetite and nutrition problem in patients with burn infection.
objectivesThe aim of the present study was therefore to examine nesfatin levels in patients with burn infection. MATERIAL AND
methodsLaboratory values, medication and dietary records, and patient notes with diagnostic information of burn wounds patients who were admitted to the Division of Burn Treatment Center were obtained from the Erzurum Region Education and Research Hospital electronic database. Post-burn wound infection was objectively assessed by culturing wound homogenates from skin tissue. The main immediate inflammatory stress response parameters assessed were serum CRP concentrations, WBC counts, and blood nesfatin concentrations.
resultsScalding was the predominant cause of burns in both categories of patients. In 19 (61.3%) burn wound infection patients, the burns were due to a scald. A significant difference was found for the nesfatin, CRP, and WBC levels between the patients and the control group (P = 0.000). A significant difference was also determined between the nesfatin, CRP, and WBC figures at the time of hospitalization and at discharge from the hospital (P = 0.000). The most predominant bacterial isolate was Pseudomonas aeruginosa 16 (51.6%) followed by Methicilline resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) 7 (22.6%).
conclusionsWe showed that the serum nesfatin 1 level was significantly lower in the patients with burn than in the control group in our study. We considered that the central nesfatin 1 system should be taken into consideration, rather than the peripheric nesfatin 1 system, when considering the regulation of appetite in patients with burns and particularly those accompanied by infection. In other explanation of the observed negative correlation between nesfatin 1 and burn wound infection suggests that nesfatin 1 may indicate the possible contribution of nesfatin 1 to the energy homeostasis.
