Prognostic values of modified NUTRIC score to assess outcomes in critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care units: prospective observational study.
Observational study in BMC anesthesiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
purposeModified Nutrition Risk in the Critically Ill (NUTRIC) score (mNUTRIC score) have been validated as screening tool for quantifying risk of adverse outcome critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care units (ICUs). The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of mNUTRIC score to assess outcomes in this population. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis prospective, observational study was conducted on adult patients admitted to the general ICUs of two university affiliated hospital in northwest of Iran. The association between the mNUTRIC score and outcomes was assessed using the univariate and multivariate binary logistic regression. The performance of mNUTRIC score to predict outcomes was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC)-curve.
resultsIn total 445 ICU patients were enrolled. Based on mNUTRIC score, 62 (13.9%) and 383 (86.1%) individuals were identified at high and low nutritional risk, respectively. The area under the curve (AUC) for predicting ICU mortality, using vasopressor, duration of vasopressor, and mechanical ventilation (MV) duration were (AUC: 0.973, 95% CI: 0.954-0.986, P < 0.001), (AUC: 0.807, 95% CI: 0.767-0.843, P < 0.001), (AUC: 0.726, 95% CI: 0.680-0.769, P < 0.001) and (AUC: 0.710, 95% CI: 0.666-0.752, P < 0.001), respectively.
conclusionsAn excellent and good predictive performance of the mNUTRIC score was found regarding ICU mortality and using vasopressor, respectively. However, this predictive was fair for MV and vasopressor duration and poor for ICU and hospital length of stay.
