Safety of a Triple-chamber Bag Parenteral Nutrition in Children Ages up to 24 Months: An Observational Study.

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
objectivesHypermagnesemia has been reported in preterm neonates treated with commercial pediatric triple-chamber bag (3CB) parenteral nutrition (PN). This postmarketing study was requested by the European Medicines Agency to assess the safety of a 3CB PN product in full-term neonates and children up to 24 months of age.
methodsThis prospective, multicenter, observational study enrolled hospitalized, full-term, newborn infants and children up to 24 months of age receiving >70% of nutrition as PN and requiring ≥50% of nutrition as PN for ≥5 days. All patients received 3CB PN during the study for ≤15 days. The primary outcome was serum magnesium, summarized by age group (0-1, >1-12, and >12-24 months). Secondary outcomes were nutritional intake and adverse events (AEs), including clinically significant abnormal laboratory results and vital signs.
resultsA total of 102 eligible patients were included. Median (interquartile range) parenteral magnesium intake was 0.23 (0.18-0.30) mmol · kg · day. Mean serum magnesium showed no consistent changes during treatment in any age group. One moderate and 3 mild AEs of hypermagnesemia were reported in 4 patients (3.9%), all ages 0 to 1 month. Other AEs in >2 patients were hypertriglyceridemia (6.9%), laryngitis (3.9%), hyperkalemia, hypokalemia, hyponatremia, hypophosphatemia, and neonatal hypotension (each 2.9%). Other serum electrolytes were stable, and revealed no safety concerns.
conclusionsMean serum magnesium levels were not affected by 3CB PN in full-term neonates and children up to 24 months of age. The risk of hypermagnesemia AEs was low when providing median parenteral magnesium of 0.2 to 0.3 mmol · kg · day in this population.
