Management of gastrointestinal failure in the adult critical care setting.
Review in Current opinion in critical care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purpose of reviewGastrointestinal failure is a polymorphic syndrome with multiple causes. Managing the different situations from a practical, metabolic, and nutritional point of view is challenging, which the present review will try to address. RECENT
findingsAcute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) has been defined and has evolved into a concept of gastrointestinal dysfunction score (GIDS) built on the model of Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, and ranging from 0 (no risk) to 4 (life threatening). But there is yet no specific, reliable and reproducible, biomarker linked to it. Evaluating the risk with the Nutrition Risk Screening (NRS) score is the first step whenever addressing nutrition therapy. Depending on the severity of the gastrointestinal failure and its clinical manifestations, nutritional management needs to be individualized but always including prevention of undernutrition and dehydration, and administration of target essential micronutrients. The use of fibers in enteral feeding solutions has gained acceptance and is even recommended based on microbiome findings. Parenteral nutrition whether alone or combined to enteral feeding is indicated whenever the intestine is unable to process the needs. SUMMARY: The heterogeneity of gastrointestinal insufficiency precludes a uniform nutritional management of all critically ill patients but justifies its early detection and the implementation of individualized care.
