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

backgroundAnemia is a common extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, data on the influence of anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha (anti-TNF-α) agents and iron supplementation on anemia in patients with IBD are sparse. We assessed the effect of iron supplementation in patients with IBD initially treated with an anti-TNF-α agent.

methodsData from 79 IBD patients who started anti-TNF-α treatment at a tertiary hospital were analyzed. The patients were divided into the anti-TNF-α (

resultsThe hemoglobin (Hb) level significantly increased between years 0 and 1 in both groups [12.0 ± 1.8-13.3 ± 2.0 g/dL in the anti-TNF-α group (

conclusionIn anemic patients with IBD, anti-TNF-α agents led to clinically meaningful improvements in anemia independent of iron supplementation. Also, iron supplementation could be helpful in severely anemic patients with IBD.
