What is the best strategy for iron deficiency anemia prevention and control in Iran? a policy analysis study protocol.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe present study is a type of exploratory qualitative studies and applied research. The approach of this study is a prospective policy analysis in which we will formulate appropriate policy options to prevent and control iron deficiency anemia in Iran. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Current study is a multi-method research with an analysis for policy approach containing three phases. First, through a literature review study, policies, programs and interventions of different countries to control and prevent anemia caused by iron deficiency will be identified. Then, in the qualitative phase of the study, the challenges, barriers, facilitators of the policies and programs implemented and ongoing in Iran will be examined. The content and policy-making process, as well as the context and role of stakeholders and actors will be analyzed using the framework of the policy triangle and analysis of the policy process using the Kingdon's multiple streams model. Then, the proposed initial policy options will be developed. In the next phase, an expert panel contain experts, authorities and policymakers will be formed and the proposed options will be reviewed and categorized. In order to prioritize policy options and evaluate their feasibility in Iran, the Delphi technique and the policy options analysis framework of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will be used. At the end, policy options will be selected based on the highest score and will be presented as appropriate policy options.
conclusionProspective policy analysis allows the selection of potentially practical and effective policy options to control iron deficiency anemia. The findings of current study will be presented as reports and research articles for policy makers.
