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

The 'Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes' (KDIGO) Clinical Practice Guideline for Anaemia in Chronic Kidney Disease includes detailed recommendations for the use of iron therapy in a variety of clinical circumstances. However, the evidence base regarding the use of iron therapy in patients with chronic kidney disease was relatively incomplete at the time the guideline was developed. As a result, there has been significant debate as to the appropriate use of iron therapy in this population. In this article, the KDIGO guidelines are discussed in the context of recently published commentary pieces and additional research to provide a richer context in which to interpret and understand the guidelines.
