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

purposePostoperative anemia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing surgery. Anemia is also a common feature during sepsis. Therefore, here, we aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of intravenous iron isomaltoside 1000 (Monofer MATERIALS AND

methodsThis multicenter study was conducted through the review of the medical records of patients with postoperative anemia undergoing elective urologic surgery or with urosepsis in a multicenter hospital. Patients received a single intravenous iron isomaltoside (IIM), and their hemoglobin (Hb) level was evaluated before and after administration of IIM. Safety data included adverse effects and hypersensitivity reactions. In addition, the patients were divided into three groups (200 mg, 400 mg, and 600 mg IIM) to compare Hb changes before and after the administration of IIM.

resultsThe study analyzed 52 men and 30 women with a mean age of 67 years. There was a significant difference between pre-treatment Hb and post-treatment Hb according to the type of the surgery after administration (p=0.01) of IIM in patients with postoperative anemia, and the mean preoperative Hb before IIM administration was 8.5 g/dL and that after IIM administration was 9.9 g/dL (p=0.006) in patients with urosepsis. The mean preoperative Hb changed from 10 g/dL to 11 g/dL after administration (p<0.001) of IIM in the whole cohort. There were no side effects due to the administration of intravenous IIM.

conclusionA single perioperative intravenous injection of IIM 1000 significantly increased the Hb level in patients with anemia who underwent urologic elective surgery. Moreover, this treatment can be considered to have potential clinical benefits for anemia caused by sepsis.
