Resting Energy Expenditure in the Critically Ill and Healthy Elderly-A Retrospective Matched Cohort Study.
Article in Nutrients, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The use of indirect calorimetry to measure resting energy expenditure (mREE) is widely recommended as opposed to calculating REE (cREE) by predictive equations (PE). The aim of this study was to compare mREE with cREE in critically ill, mechanically ventilated patients aged ≥ 75 years and a healthy control group matched by age, gender and body mass index. The primary outcome was the PE accuracy rate of mREE/cREE, derived using Bland Altman plots. Secondary analyses included linear regression analyses for determinants of intraindividual mREE/cREE differences in the critically ill and interindividual mREE differences in the matched healthy cohort. In this retrospective study, 90 critically ill patients (median age 80 years) and 58 matched healthy persons were included. Median mREE was significantly higher in the critically ill (1457 kcal/d) versus the healthy cohort (1351 kcal/d), with low PE accuracy rates (21% to 49%). Independent predictors of mREE/cREE differences in the critically ill were body temperature, heart rate, FiO
