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

(1) Background: Malnutrition increases the risk of complications, prolongs the period of hospitalization, worsens the results of treatment, and increases the costs of hospital stay. Patients' lack of knowledge on how to cope with it may increase the occurrence of these unfavorable consequences. The aim of this study was to assess hospitalized patients' awareness of foods for special medical purposes (FSMP) and to determine the perception of the dietitian's role in the hospital treatment process. (2) Methods: The survey was conducted among patients hospitalized in one of the hospitals in the Małopolska region. The sample consisted of 100 respondents. Participation in the research was anonymous and voluntary. The author's survey contained 14 closed- and open-ended questions. The answers were single or multiple choice. A knowledge test was used to determine the level of awareness among respondents. The maximum score was 8. Appropriately selected tests were applied to the collected data, such as Spearman's correlation, Shapiro-Wilk's normality test, and Levene's and Mann-Witney's tests. The level of statistical significance was assumed to be
