Case report of atypical undernutrition of hypoproteinemia type.
Article in Open life sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Albumin and prealbumin serve as vital markers reflecting hepatic synthesis activity and overall body nutrient status. Hypoproteinemia can result from various etiological factors, with reduced blood inflow into the liver due to portal vein thrombosis being one such cause. However, literature addressing this specific association remains limited. This report presents an atypical case of malnutrition involving a patient who experienced prolonged hypoproteinemia attributable to a gradual decline in hepatic blood perfusion caused by progressive portal thrombosis and cavernous transformation of the portal vein (CTPV). The case encompasses an in-depth analysis of the factors contributing to undernutrition, the etiology and diagnosis of hypoproteinemia, and its clinical implications. Vigilance for the presence of hypoproteinemia is essential in the management of patients afflicted by progressive portal vein thrombosis complicated by CTPV. Timely and effective interventions aimed at rectifying hypoproteinemia can significantly enhance clinical outcomes. Moreover, reduced hepatic blood flow should be considered a plausible underlying cause in cases of unexplained hypoproteinemia, warranting thorough evaluation. This case underscores the importance of recognizing the intricate interplay between hepatic vascular pathology and protein homeostasis in clinical practice.
