Clinical Outcomes of Hypocaloric/Hyperproteic vs Normocaloric Enteral Feeding in the Acute Phase of Critical Illness among Patients Admitted in the Intensive Care Unit: A Systematic Review with Meta-analysis.
Article in Indian journal of critical care medicine : peer-reviewed, official publication of Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objectives: To examine the effect of hypocaloric/hyperproteic enteral feeding vs normocaloric feeding on the survival of critically ill patients in the acute phase in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methodology: Randomized clinical trials utilizing hypocaloric, hyperproteic, and normocaloric enteral feeding in the ICU were searched using the following terms ((((critically ill) OR (intensive care) OR (mechanically ventilated)) AND ((low-calorie enteral feeding) OR (high-protein enteral feeding)))) in MEDLINE, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar by two independent authors. Results: There were no significant differences in hospital mortality [odds ratio (OR), 1.0; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.77, 1.31; Conclusion: This meta-analysis showed no significant differences in mortality, infectious complications, days of mechanical ventilation, and ICU length of stay between groups. Findings on hospital length of stay were interpreted with caution due to the low quality of evidence and clinical heterogeneity. How to cite this article: Permejo CC, Evangelista TJP.
