Efficacy and safety of individual nutrition support in patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure at nutrition risk: a study protocol for a randomised controlled clinical trial.
Article in BMJ open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06128421 (Individual Nutrition Support in HBV-ACLF Patients at Nutrition Risk), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
introductionMalnutrition is a common complication of hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF) typically associated with poor prognosis. Despite nutritional treatment, the outcomes for these patients are limited by the symptoms and complications associated with ACLF. So far, the benefits of nutritional interventions in these populations have not been proven. This study aims to explore a new nutritional intervention method for patients with HBV-ACLF and evaluate its safety and efficacy. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This study is an investigator-initiated, nonblind, randomised controlled clinical trial. We will recruit 60 patients with HBV-ACLF according to the Chinese Group on the Study of Severe Hepatitis B criteria hospitalised in the Infectious Diseases Department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University. Eligible patients will be randomly allocated to the nutrition support group (intervention group) and the control group in a 1:1 ratio. Patients in the nutrition support group will receive 10 days of tailor-made nutrition therapy consisting of oral nutritional supplements and supplementary parenteral nutrition. Patients in the control group will receive standard nutrition with dietary advice. All assessments will be conducted at baseline, 30 days and 90 days. The primary outcome measure is the liver transplant-free mortality rate. The secondary indicators include the incidence of clinical adverse outcomes and changes in indicators such as muscle mass, muscle strength, physical function and quality of life (EQ-5D scale). ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University (approval number: II2023-242-03). The results and conclusions of the clinical trial will be published in academic conferences or journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT06128421.
