Nurse supervised combined refeeding and home parenteral nutrition in traumatic intestinal failure: A case series.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundIntestinal failure is a decrease in intestinal function under the minimum absorption requirements of macronutrients, water, and electrolytes. Hartman's procedure with jejunostomy is used as a surgical procedure to prevent further damage in cases of abdominal trauma. Providing parenteral nutrition at home is needed to prevent nutritional deficiencies and prolonged length of stay. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We reported two cases, involving two men aged 25 and 14 years old who had peritonitis due to abdominal trauma and received laparotomy. Both patients had Hartman's procedures and jejunostomy less than 60 cm from the Treitz ligament. Both patients were diagnosed as bowel failure with an SGA C score. Supervised home parenteral nutrition was done by refeeding jejunostomy at the distal stoma. After supervision of parenteral nutrition, the SGA score increased from C to B. Three months later the patients underwent jejunal reanastomosis. Patients went home one week later without complications. At postoperative follow-up at one month and one year, both patients did not experience any complications. DISCUSSION: HPN is now a method used to provide nutritional support for patients with IF. This helps patients to meet their nutritional needs, also preventing psychosocial disorders and reduction of their quality of life.
conclusionsBased on these two cases, nurse supervised combined refeeding and home parenteral nutrition showed good results with an increase in nutritional status of SGA C to SGA B. Supervision of home parenteral nutrition can be considered as adjunctive therapy in patients with high intestinal failure before undergoing reanastomosis.
