[Anemia in the aged - a geriatric syndrome? : Second position paper on anemia in the aged by the working group anemia of the German Geriatric Society].
Review in Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Geriatric syndromes are the pathognomonic columns of geriatric medicine. In contrast to many syndromes in younger people, in geriatric patients, the chief complaint does not typically represent the specific pathological condition underlying the change in health status. Geriatric syndromes are usually highly prevalent, multicausal and share a number of common risk factors. In recent years, scientific controversy over anemia in the aged has revealed a high prevalence in geriatric patients, which prompted the "working group on anemia" to publish its first position paper at a European level. The development of anemia is multicausal and the causes of the various forms of anemia range from iron deficiency, malnutrition, chronic inflammation, hormonal dysregulation, functional organ disorders, impaired synthesis to malignancies. The corresponding pathomechanisms are closely associated with the development of other geriatric syndromes such as gait disorders, sarcopenia, frailty, and falls. Against this backdrop, the "working group on anemia" of the German Geriatric Society has devised a second position paper:"Multicausality and the significant association between anemia and assessment-based quantifiable impairments suggest the consideration of anemia in the aged to be a geriatric syndrome."
