Parenteral nutrition weaning in pediatric intestinal failure patients enrolled in remote patient monitoring: A descriptive study.
Article in JPEN. Journal of parenteral and enteral nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundRemote patient monitoring (RPM) enhances patient surveillance. This study describes our initial experience with RPM in pediatric intestinal failure patients and its preliminary impact on parenteral nutrition (PN) reduction in an outpatient setting.
methodsWe performed a descriptive cohort study on pediatric patients with intestinal failure receiving home PN and enrolled in an RPM program managed by our intestinal rehabilitation team. Initiated in March 2021, the study compared PN energy and volume reduction rates before and after RPM implementation. We calculated the rate of PN decrease per day and the time to achieve a 20% reduction in PN volume. Paired t tests were used for comparisons. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05. The study received institutional review board approval.
resultsSeventeen patients were included (52% male; mean age: 44 months). The most common etiology of short bowel syndrome was necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), with a mean residual small bowel length of 15.5% ± 12.5%. Post-RPM, there was a greater reduction in PN energy and volume (0.22 ± 0.28 and 0.17 ± 0.24) compared with pre-RPM (0.08 ± 0.10 and 0.07 ± 0.08), though not statistically significant (P = 0.11 and P = 0.17). Time to achieve a 20% reduction in PN was shorter post RPM but not statistically significant (P = 0.06 and P = 0.20 for energy and volume, respectively).
conclusionRemote patient monitoring appears safe for pediatric intestinal failure patients, with potential for higher PN reduction and shorter time to achieve it. Further research is needed to fully assess RPM's impact on this population.
