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

aimTo evaluate the status of the nutritional management of diet-treated IEM in Brazil from the perspectives of healthcare professionals, patients, and families.

methodsData were collected through two nationwide digital questionnaires administered to healthcare professionals involved in dietary management (

resultsHealthcare professionals from 20 out of the 26 Brazilian states participated, most of them female (81%) and dietitians (81%). Although more than half had over 10 years of experience, 59% considered their training insufficient to work with IEM. Only 19% reported exclusive dedication to the field, and 54% were the sole professional responsible for dietary prescriptions at their center. Weekly workload dedicated to IEM varied widely. Among the patients and families, phenylketonuria (60.4%) and glycogen storage disease (25.9%) were the most frequent conditions. Higher educational level and longer time since diagnosis were associated with a better understanding of dietary management (

conclusionsSignificant systemic, logistical, and socioeconomic barriers to optimal dietary management of IEM persist in Brazil, highlighting the need for strengthened public policies, professional training, and equitable access to dietary resources.
