Use of a hypercaloric and hyperprotein supplement enriched with immunonutrients in multi-pathological malnourished patients to improve the incidence and prevalence of pressure sores: A randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06726486 (Use of a Hypercaloric and Hyperprotein Supplement Enriched with Immunonutrients in Multi-pathological Malnourished Patients to Improve the Incidence and Prevalence of Pressure Sores), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundPredisposing factors for the development of pressure-related injuries (PRIs) include the presence of chronic diseases, polypharmacy, immobility and malnutrition. Nutrients such as arginine play an essential role in wound healing. METHODS AND
findingsA single-blind randomized controlled trial was carried out. Intervention group received a complete hyperproteic and hypercaloric oral nutritional supplement with a fiber mixture enriched in omega 3, L-arginine and nucleotides, providing vitamin C and Zinc, and the control group received a hyperproteic and hypercaloric oral nutritional supplement with fiber mixture.
resultsDescriptive analysis indicated a lower frequency of PRIs at 15 and 30 days in the Atémpero® group compared to the control group, although these differences did not reach statistical significance. However, both improved at the end of the study. In addition, the high risk decreased in both groups, with a higher decrease in the Atémpero® group (72.5% vs 40.9%), as well as the categorization and parameters of the PUSH scale, with a reduction of the same in the Atémpero® group.
conclusionsWhile statistical significance was not achieved, the observed trends in PUSH scale scores and clinical observations within the Atémpero® group suggest areas for further investigation. These preliminary data highlight a potential avenue for the nutritional management of multi-pathological patients, establishing a solid foundation for future large-scale confirmatory trials to validate the efficacy of immunonutrient-enriched ONS in pressure injury care.
