Parenteral Nutrition Management from the Clinical Pharmacy Perspective: Insights and Recommendations from the Saudi Society of Clinical Pharmacy.
Article in Pharmacy (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is essential for patients who are unable to tolerate oral or enteral feeding, providing them with necessary nutrients intravenously, including dextrose, amino acids, electrolytes, vitamins, trace elements, and lipid emulsions. Clinical pharmacists (CPs) play a critical role in PN management by ensuring proper formulation, monitoring therapy, preventing complications, and optimizing patient outcomes. In Saudi Arabia, limited literature exists on CPs' involvement in total parenteral nutrition (TPN) administration, health information management (HIM) systems, and pharmacist staffing ratios. This paper examines the evolving role of CPs in PN management, addressing key challenges such as the optimal patient-to-CP ratio, the impact of HIM systems on PN prescribing, and the advantages and limitations of centralized versus decentralized PN prescription models. It highlights the need for standardized staffing levels, structured pharmacist training, and improved HIM integration to enhance workflow efficiency and prescribing accuracy. Additionally, the study examines how the adoption of advanced HIM systems can streamline documentation, reduce prescribing errors, and enhance interdisciplinary collaboration. This paper provides a framework for optimizing PN delivery, enhancing healthcare quality, and strengthening CPs' contributions to nutrition support by addressing these factors. Implementing these recommendations will improve patient outcomes and establish a more efficient PN management system in Saudi Arabia, reinforcing the vital role of CPs in multidisciplinary care.
