Association between anemia and vitamin D deficiency in German seniors : A retrospective data analysis.
Article in Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundAnemia and deficiency of vitamin D (VDD) are frequently seen in seniors and an association is suspected. Approximately one third of the German population is affected by VDD, with a rising prevalence among seniors.
aimTo analyze the association between anemia and VDD among German seniors aged ≥ 60 years.
methodsRetrospective cross-sectional data analysis (n = 4008) in a nationwide working laboratory medical center (January-December 2019). Study parameters included amongst others: hemoglobin (Hb), calcifediol (25D) and calcitriol (1.25D), glomerular filtration rate (GFR) to assess the kidney disease outcomes quality initiative (KDOQI) state. The inclusion criteria were age ≥ 60 years, normal C‑reactive protein (CRP) and leucocyte levels.
resultsThe 25D was estimated in 4008 patients and 1.25D only in 411 patients. Mean age 75 years (± 8.61 years; 60-99 years) with 30.6% males; mean GFR 62 ml/min/1.73 m
conclusionIn this cohort deficiency of 25D and 1.25D was significantly associated with hemoglobin independent of renal function only in women but not in men.
