Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy and Nutritional Interventions by the Pediatric Nutritional Support Team Improve the Nutritional Status of Neurologically Impaired Children.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
aimTo evaluate the long-term effects of nutritional improvement following percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube feeding stratified by previous feeding method and to assess the impact of underlying muscle tone on the outcomes of the nutritional intervention.
methodsNeurologically impaired children who underwent PEG tube insertion and nutritional intervention provided by a pediatric nutritional support team were enrolled. We measured anthropometric variables, laboratory parameters, and nutritional intake at baseline, 6 months after PEG insertion, and the last visit. We evaluated the percent ideal body weight (PIBW), body mass index (BMI)-for-age
resultsThe PIBW and BMI-for-age
conclusionPEG tube feeding and active nutritional intervention improved the nutritional status of neurologically impaired children immediately after PEG insertion. The nutritional requirements might vary by the muscle tonicity.
