Kitchen-based diet versus commercial polymeric formulation in acute pancreatitis: a pilot randomized comparative study.
Trial report in European journal of clinical nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionNutrition plays an important role in management of acute pancreatitis (AP) and decreases its severity and infectious complications. Various formulations of enteral nutrition (EN) are available and are costly. For developing countries, cost and availability is a major issue and kitchen-based diet should be explored in patients with AP.
aimComparison of kitchen-based diet with a commercially available polymeric formulation in terms of various outcomes in patients with AP within 14 days after the onset of pain.
methodsSixty patients (39 male, mean age 36.1 ± 12.7 years) of moderately severe and severe AP of any etiology were randomized (30 in each group) to either kitchen-based diet or commercial polymeric formulation group. Outcome measures were refeeding pain, tolerability, infectious complications, mortality, total hospital/intensive care unit stay; and change in serum C-reactive protein (CRP), transferrin and pre albumin.
resultsThere was no significant difference in baseline demographic and biochemical parameters in both groups. No difference was observed in refeeding pain (7.1% vs 8%, p = 0.99), tolerability (28.6% vs 12%, p = 0.17), infectious complications (57.14% vs 36%, p = 0.12), mortality (31.7% vs 20%, p = 0.69), hospital stay (19.5 vs 23.5 days, p = 0.86), CRP (74.4 vs 59 mg/L, p = 0.97), transferrin levels (23.6 vs 25.6 mg/dL, p = 0.75) and pre albumin (9.45 vs 13.09 mg/dL, p = 0.68) in both groups.
conclusionKitchen-based diet is comparable to commercial polymeric formulation for the early initiation of enteral nutrition in patients with severe or moderately severe acute pancreatitis. CLINICAL
