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
Background and Objectives: Enteral feeding solutions (gavage) play a vital role in supporting ICU patients who cannot eat by mouth. However, their preparation is vulnerable to microbial contamination, posing serious health risks. This study aimed to assess and improve the microbial safety of enteral feeding solutions prepared at Imam Khomeini Hospital in Urmia, Iran. Materials and Methods: A three-phase intervention was conducted involving microbial and PCR analyses, source identification, and corrective measures. Initial testing revealed high contamination levels: coliform bacteria (>5×10 Results: Post-intervention analyses showed complete elimination of detectable microbial contamination in the gavage solutions. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that implementing a HACCP-based approach can effectively eliminate microbial contamination in enteral feeding solutions. The findings support the development of national guidelines and highlight the importance of standardized safety practices to improve patient care in hospital settings.
