Positive Correlation Between Changes in Serum Albumin Levels and Breakfast Non-Protein Calorie/Nitrogen Ratio in Geriatric Patients.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Differences in nutrition intake by meal intake time of geriatric patients may affect albumin (Alb) synthesis ability. Methods: We included 36 geriatric patients (81.7 ± 7.7 years; 20 males and 16 females) as subjects. We calculated their dietary patterns (DPs) by computing intake by breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as by nutrient, for a weight of 1 kg/day for 4 weeks after hospitalization. We confirmed the relationship between "DP with a positive correlation with breakfast protein" and the change rate of albumin (Alb-RC). Then, we performed linear regression analysis to explore factors influencing Alb-RC and compared non-protein calorie/nitrogen ratio (NPC/N) between the upper and lower Alb-RC groups. Results: It was observed that Alb-RC was negatively correlated with "DP with a positive correlation with breakfast protein" (B = -0.055, P = 0.038) and positively correlated with breakfast NPC/N (B = 0.043, P = 0.029). Breakfast NPC/N tended to be higher in the upper group than in the lower group (P = 0.058). Conclusion: The study revealed that there was a positive correlation between Alb-RC levels and breakfast NPC/N in geriatric patients at the care mix institution.
