Evaluation of gastric emptying rate in neurosurgical patients and its correlation with intracranial pressure.
Article in Indian journal of anaesthesia, 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
Background and Aims: Real-time ultrasonography has shown good correlation in evaluating gastric emptying in previous studies. The present study aimed to examine gastric content and volume using ultrasound in neurosurgical patients admitted in the intensive care unit (ICU) and compare it with non-neurosurgical patients and assess correlation between gastric emptying and intracranial pressure. Methods: Forty adult patients of either gender admitted in the ICU on mechanical ventilation and receiving enteral nutrition via nasogastric tubes were included in the study and allocated into two groups: Group I ( Results: There was no significant difference between the two groups in baseline values of gastric volume as well as at T1 and T2, while there was a significant difference between the two groups at T3 and T4. The mean value of GER in group I was 33.80 ± 13.29%, and that in group II was 58.24 ± 9.80% ( Conclusion: Mechanically ventilated patients in the ICU who had neurosurgical pathology exhibited delayed gastric emptying as compared to non-neurosurgical patients.
