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

Objective: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of different anemia patterns in CKD patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out at the Outpatient Department of General Medicine, Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar from 1st July to 31 Results: The study included a cohort of 209 participants with an average age of 40.78 ± 6.37 years and a mean BMI of 26.12 ± 4.11 kg/m². Among the participants, 72.2% were male and 27.8% were female. The most common CKD patterns were normocytic (41.1%), hypochromic microcytic (32.5%), and hypochromic macrocytic (26.3%). The majority of participants (78.9%) had experienced CKD for over one year. No significant association was found between the types of anemia in CKD and gender, underlying cause of CKD, age, BMI, or duration of the disease. Conclusion: Our study highlights the prevalence of various types of anemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) among participants, with normocytic anemia emerging as the most prevalent, followed by hypochromic and hyperchromic patterns. Additionally, longitudinal studies could provide insights into the progression and management of anemia in CKD patients over time.
