1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo evaluate the effects of different enteral nutrition (EN) strategies on nutritional status, inflammatory factors, immune markers, coagulation function, and clinical outcomes in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI).

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 121 sTBI patients treated at Yiwu Central Hospital between January 2023 and January 2025. Among them, 58 received early EN alone (control group) and 63 received early EN with probiotics (study group). Pre- and post-treatment comparisons between the two groups included: nutritional indices (total protein [TP], albumin [ALB], and prealbumin [PA]), inflammatory factors (interleukin-6 [IL-6], C-reactive protein [CRP], and tumor necrosis factor-α [TNF-α]), immune-related markers (immunoglobulin A [IgA], IgG, and IgM), coagulation indicators (fibrinogen [Fib] and D-dimer [D-D]) and clinical outcomes (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE-II) scores, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores, incidence of complications, time to first defecation, and time to target feeding volume [TFV]).

resultsFollowing treatment, the study group demonstrated significantly smaller reductions in TP and ALB, greater increases in PA, and more pronounced decreases in IL-6, CRP, and TNF-α (all

conclusionEarly EN combined with probiotics significantly improved nutrition, reduced inflammation, enhanced immune and coagulation function, and improved recovery in sTBI patients.
