Influence of cognitive function and nurse support on malnutrition risk in nursing home residents.
Article in Nursing open, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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 predict malnutrition risk of older residents by cognitive function, nurse support and self-care capacity as primary measures of interest.
designCross-sectional, correlation design with linear regression analysis.
methodsOlder residents over 60 years of age were randomly selected from nursing homes. Mini Mental State Exam and the Mini Nutritional Assessment were used were as main measures.
resultsLower malnutrition risk was associated with better cognitive functioning. Improved independence of self-feeding was also linked to reduced nutritional risk. Nurse support was positively related to BMI and cognitive impairment. General self-care capacity and 'appetite the week before' were key predictors of malnutrition risk; 1-point increase in both variables caused nutritional risk to decrease by 1.73 and 1.38 points, respectively. That is, a 1-point increase in self-care capacity and appetite would decrease malnutrition risk by 5.76% and 4.6%. The regression model explained significant amount (65.6%) of variance in malnutrition risk.
