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

Iron is essential for most living organisms but iron excess can be toxic. Cellular and systemic iron balance is therefore tightly controlled. Iron homeostasis is dysregulated in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and contributes to the anemia that is prevalent in this patient population. Iron supplementation is one cornerstone of anemia management in CKD patients, but has not been rigorously studied in large prospective randomized controlled trials. This review highlights important advances from genetic studies and animal models that have provided key insights into the molecular mechanisms governing iron homeostasis and its disturbance in CKD, and summarizes how these findings may yield advances in the care of this patient population.
