Nutritional Counseling of Stroke Patients by Neurology Residents, a Call to Action.

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
Background: Poor diet quality has been found to be an independent risk factor for mortality in stroke. However, it is unknown to what extent Neurologists are trained and are comfortable enough to provide dietary counseling to stroke patients. Objective: To assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of neurology residents relating to dietary counseling of stroke patients. Methods: An online anonymous survey was administered to neurology residents throughout the country between August and November 2019 among a total of 109 (68%) US neurology programs. Self-reported practices and knowledge regarding stroke prevention through nutritional counseling were queried using validated questionnaires. Results: 453 responses out of a potential 672 were received. A minority of residents (12.3%) consistently offered nutritional counseling to stroke patients. 47.7% considered that it was not the neurologist's role to provide nutritional counseling to stroke patients. 83.4% of residents felt that it was the responsibility of the dietician to provide nutritional counseling, yet only 21.4% of residents consistently referred stroke patients to a dietician. 77.9% of respondents felt nutritional counseling is important for stroke patients, yet 65.6% felt they were not adequately trained to provide nutritional counseling. Conclusion: Neurologists in training believe diet to be an important part of stroke prevention, but practical knowledge and training in nutrition are suboptimal. This study suggests the need to include nutrition as an integral part of neurology training, to ensure neurologists feel empowered to be an important part of the team providing nutritional counseling to stroke patients.
