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

Introduction: To evaluate the efficacy of ferric carboxy maltose (FCM) in the treatment of iron deficiency/iron deficiency anaemia (ID/IDA) during pregnancy. Material and methods: Pregnant women ≥ 20 years old diagnosed with ID (serum ferritin < 15 µg/l) and moderate IDA were included in this study for correction of their ID/IDA. The participants received an FCM infusion for correction of their ID/IDA. The pre-treatment ferritin, haemoglobin (Hb), and red blood cell (RBC) indices were compared with the 6- and 12-week post-treatment values to evaluate the efficacy of FCM in the treatment of ID/IDA during pregnancy. Results: The pre-treatment ferritin and Hb significantly increased from 10.3 ±2.3 µg/l and 7.99 ±0.6 g/dl, respectively, to 139.5 ±1.9 and 14.04 ±0.45, respectively, 6-weeks after FCM infusion ( Conclusions: The ferric carboxy maltose was safe and effective for the treatment of ID/IDA during pregnancy within 6 weeks. The serum ferritin and Hb levels and the RBC indices remained significantly high 12 weeks after FCM infusion compared to the pre-treatment values.
