Shoshin Beriberi in a Child With Intestinal Failure: A Case Report.
Article in Critical care explorations, 2024. 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
backgroundAcute illness states with increased metabolic demand can precipitate severe thiamine deficiency if physiologic needs exceed endogenous stores and supplementation. Patients with preexisting risk factors such as parenteral nutrition (PN) dependence, eating disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, or surgeries are especially vulnerable. CASE SUMMARY: A 9-year-old girl with short bowel syndrome receiving long-term PN, including standard thiamine supplementation, presented with refractory shock following aspiration. Profound hyperlactatemia, cardiac dysfunction, and vasoactive requirements persisted despite extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and resolved only after treatment with parenteral thiamine.
conclusionsHemodynamic collapse due to thiamine deficiency (Shoshin beriberi) may occur during acute illness in children with nutritional risk factors and should be considered in refractory hyperlactatemia. Timely treatment with parenteral thiamine can support dramatic hemodynamic recovery. Treatment of suspected thiamine deficiency should not be delayed for laboratory confirmation as current thiamine reference ranges correlate poorly with clinical severity, and functional testing may not be readily available.
