Impact of malnutrition on post-stroke cognitive impairment in convalescent rehabilitation ward inpatients.
Article in European geriatric medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo investigate the relationship between malnutrition risk on admission and improvement in post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI).
methodsThis retrospective cohort study included 90 patients with PSCI with a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score ≤ 23, who were admitted to a rehabilitation hospital between July 2013 and December 2015. We assessed the malnutrition risk using the Mini Nutritional Assessment-Short Form (MNA-SF) and cognitive improvement using the Functional Independence Measure cognitive subscale (cognitive FIM) gain. Participants were classified into the malnourished (MNA-SF score ≤ 7) and adequately nourished groups (≥ 8). The patients' age, modified Rankin Scale score, time to hospitalization, and length of stay were recorded. The relationship between nutritional status and cognitive FIM was determined using a multivariate regression model.
resultsThe study included 47 men and 43 women, with a mean age of 75.0 (standard deviation: 8.7) years. The number of patients in the malnourished and adequately nourished groups were 68 (75.6%) and 22 (24.4%), respectively. The median MMSE score was 19 (interquartile range 15-22), and the median cognitive FIM score at admission was 17 (interquartile range 11-21.8). Univariate analysis showed no significant difference in cognitive FIM gain between the malnourished and adequately nourished groups (P = 0.781). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the MNA-SF score (beta = 0.84, P = 0.009) and cognitive FIM at admission (beta = - 0.347, P < 0.001) were independently related to cognitive FIM gain.
conclusionMost patients with PSCI were malnourished; malnutrition on admission for rehabilitation was associated with poor improvement after PSCI.
