Relationship Between Anemia and Telogen Effluvium in Post-COVID-19 Survivors.

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
introductionThere are insufficient studies in the literature on the relationship between the acute severity of disease and the occurrence of anemia and telogen effluvium (TE) in the post-coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) period.
objectivesThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between anemia and TE in individuals who had experienced COVID-19 during the post-COVID period.
methodThe study has a retrospective cross-sectional design and was conducted on patients presenting to a tertiary care hospital for COVID-19 follow-up. Patient data, including demographic parameters, data regarding smoking history, comorbidities, symptoms, and laboratory panel at presentation, were evaluated.
resultsOut of 672 patients, 249 had TE complaints. TE was more common in females, those under the average age of this patient group, and those with a body mass index of under 25. Anemia was identified in 80 patients. Among individuals with anemia, TE was observed in 47.3%, whereas among those without anemia, the occurrence of TE was noted at a rate of 35.5%. When the severity of infection in the acute phase was examined in relation to the presence of TE in the post-COVID period, TE was observed in 45.1% of those receiving outpatient treatment, 37.0% of those hospitalized, and 30.7% of those in intensive care.
conclusionThe results obtained in this study group indicate that TE complaints after COVID-19 are more common in those with anemia, but the fact that they did not correlate with the acute disease's severity requires consideration of other causes besides the virus effect.
