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

Background and Aims: Nutritional care has long been a fundamental component of Traditional Mongolian Medicine (TMM), reflecting a holistic understanding of health, diet, and disease prevention. This study aimed to examine the historical and conceptual foundations of nutritional care in TMM and to develop a conceptual framework based on historical TMM texts. Methods: Historical research was conducted using Berg's seven-stage historical research framework and primary TMM texts dating from the sixth to the twentieth centuries. Recurrent concepts related to food, beverages, nutrition, and health maintenance were identified and analyzed through concept analysis. The resulting concepts were synthesized using concept mapping to develop a conceptual framework of nutritional care in TMM. Results: Historical analysis revealed the progressive development and refinement of nutritional knowledge throughout the evolution of TMM. Five recurrent concepts were identified: cosmological foundations of nourishment, bodily balance and humoral regulation, dietary classification, contextualized nutritional assessment, and therapeutic nutritional care. These concepts were integrated into a conceptual framework structured around four interrelated domains: nutritional assessment, planning, intervention, and evaluation. Conclusion: This study provides a systematic conceptualization of nutritional care grounded in TMM and proposes a framework that organizes its historical principles into a coherent model. The framework offers a foundation for future empirical studies examining the application and relevance of TMM-based nutritional care in contemporary healthcare contexts.
