Impact of enteral feeding strategies on nosocomial
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional investigation was conducted on adult CDI patients across tertiary hospitals in Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province (Jan 2020-May 2025). Of 97 records, 78 met inclusion criteria. Demographic, nutritional, and biochemical data-including sodium, creatinine, albumin, and hemoglobin-were analyzed. Results: All cases ranged from mild to moderate diarrhea; males comprised 57.1%. Continuous feeding strongly associated with milder diarrhea compared to intermittent feeding (OR = 7.91; 95% CI: 2.688-23.253; Conclusion: Continuous enteral feeding appears clinically advantageous in CDI, improving tolerance and biochemical stability. Findings highlight the importance of nutritional monitoring, electrolyte management, and rational prescribing. Region-specific evidence contributes to global CDI literature and supports future prospective studies to refine feeding strategies.
