Effect of Anemia on Readmission and Death in Octogenarian Patients with Lower Respiratory Tract Infections: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

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
Objectives: Lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in the octogenarian population is a highly prevalent disorder associated with increased mortality rates. Anemia is a common disorder in older adults and is often left untreated. We investigated whether anemia was a risk factor for LRTI-caused readmission and death in octogenarian patients. Design: A retrospective cohort study was designed. Results: The risk of readmission due to LTRI within 1 year of discharge was 2.308 times higher in the anemia group than the risk for the non-anemia group. The number of patients experiencing ≥2 readmissions in the anemia group was significantly higher than that in the non-anemia group (35 (23.5%) vs. 2 (3%), Conclusions: Anemia is a widely prevalent and relevant risk factor associated with LRTI-caused readmission and death within 1 year of discharge in octogenarian patients.
