Peripapillary nerve fiber layer in patients with iron deficiency anemia: A cross-sectional study in a tertiary eye care center in Central India.
Article in Oman journal of ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
aimsThe aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) on peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). SETTINGS: The study was conducted at tertiary eye care center in Central India.
designThis study was a prospective, cross-sectional, case-control, and observational study. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn the present study, 58 eyes of patients with IDA were compared with 58 eyes of healthy individuals. All individuals underwent a thorough hematological, clinical, and ophthalmic examination, followed by peripapillary RNFL analysis using SD-OCT.
resultsA total of 116 eyes were included in the study. The average RNFL thickness (RNFLT) in the cases was 97.26 ± 5.96, and 102.32 ± 6.26 (
conclusionsIn patients with IDA, RNFLT was decreased in all quadrants compared to normal healthy individuals. The inferior and nasal RNFL showed a significant decrease in thickness. The presence of myopia, glaucoma, and diabetic and hypertensive retinopathy can exert an additive effect in the thinning of RNFLs and cause significant visual loss; hence, the correction of anemia is essential. There is a pressing need to raise public and health professional awareness of these problems and their prevention, diagnosis, and management.
