Early Clinical Swallow Evaluation Is Associated with Lower Malnutrition Prevalence at Discharge in Neurogeriatric Rehabilitation Patients: A Prospective Study.
Article in Nutrients, 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
backgroundMalnutrition is a known outcome of dysphagia.
objectivesTo estimate the association between the timing of the Clinical Swallow Evaluation (CSE) at admission and nutrition status at hospital discharge.
methodsIn this single-center prospective study, the electronic medical records of patients discharged from the neurogeriatric rehabilitation department at the participating hospital, who had undergone CSE by a speech pathologist per hospital bed-side evaluation protocol, were reviewed. The participants were divided into two groups: those who underwent CSE within 48 h of hospitalization per Israel Ministry of Health guidelines (early CSE,
resultsSeventy-eight patients were included (mean age 80.7 ± 8.1 years); 85.9% were malnourished at admission, with no difference between groups. At discharge, malnutrition was less prevalent in the early vs. late CSE group (61.3% vs. 78.7%;
conclusionsEarly CSE in elderly patients hospitalized for neurogeriatric rehabilitation is associated with less malnutrition at discharge.
