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
introductionAnemia is a frequent complication of Chronic Kidney Disease CKD commonly found in chronic haemodialysis patients. Patients management is mainly based on erythropoietin administration and iron supplementation. This study aimed to evaluate the management of chronic hemodialysis patients with anemia in the Department of Nephrology and Hemodialysis at the University Hospital Point G in Mali.
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study from 1 to 31 August 2016.
results63 patients out of a total of 174 participants were selected, 34 men and 29 women with a sex-ratio of 1.17 in favor of men. The average age of patients was 48,79 years ±11.59, the average duration of hemodialysis treatment time was 3,77years±2.6. Hospitalization rate for anemia in our dialysis patients was 84,12%. 92.1% of patients required blood transfusion, with an annual average of 5,81 blood bags ±5.91. 87.3% of cases required iron supplementation. Mean ferritin concentration and TSC were 1245 ng/ml±629,52 and 46,16%±19.12 respectively. Occasional administration of EPO doses not exceeding the 4000IU was reported by 79.4% of patients. The main difficulty in using EPO was its cost (74.6%). HCV infection was found in 60.1% of patients who were assessed.
conclusionThe management of chronic dialysis patients with anemia should be integrated into the framework of the national health policy.
