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 deficiency anemia has a high prevalence in children and has repeatedly been implicated as a risk factor for arterial and venous thrombosis. As an effective therapy for iron deficiency anemia is available, understanding the association between this form of anemia and the potentially severe thrombosis phenotype is of major clinical interest. Recent findings shed light on pathophysiology of hypercoagulability resulting from iron-restricted erythropoiesis. Specifically, an animal model of induced iron deficiency allowed identifying multiple mechanisms, by which iron deficiency anemia results in increased thrombus formation and thrombus progression both in arterial and venous thrombosis. These findings complement and support conclusions derived from clinical data. The purpose of this mini review is to summarize current evidence on the association of iron deficiency anemia and thrombosis. We want to increase the awareness of iron deficiency as a risk factor for thrombosis in the pediatric population. We discuss how novel pathophysiological concepts can be translated into the clinical settings and suggest clinical studies on prevention and treatment strategies in high-risk patient groups.
