The investigation and analysis of nutritional iron deficiency anaemia in Kazakh children.

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
Objective: This study aimed to investigate nutritional iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in Kazakh children. Method: In this cross-sectional study, a total of 197 children aged 3-14 years were randomly selected from three townships in Barkol County, and the basic information and diet of the sample children were collected and analysed. Results: The overall prevalence of IDA was 15.7%, which is considerably higher than the national average for children in China. Kazakh children had a significantly higher prevalence of anaemia than their Han counterparts ( Conclusions: The findings indicate a substantial burden of IDA among Kazakh children in this region, highlighting a significant ethnic disparity. The primary modifiable risk factors are dietary, centring on insufficient consumption of bioavailable iron from animal sources and aquatic products, coupled with a lack of iron supplementation. The counterintuitive association between soybean/nut intake and IDA risk warrants further investigation. These results underscore the urgent need for targeted nutritional interventions and health education programmes focused on improving dietary iron quality and supplementation practices in this population.
