Hyperparathyroidism and malnutrition with severe vitamin D deficiency.
Review in World journal of surgery, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers.
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
backgroundVitamin D deficiency and its associated problems are common in developing Asian countries and countries of the Middle East. Various factors, including poor nutritional status and other compounding factors such as dietary, cultural, ethnic, and environmental factors, play a major role in contributing to the poor calcium and vitamin D homeostasis. Vitamin D deficiency is thought to exacerbate signs and symptoms of hyperparathyroidism (HPT). In this overview, we present evidence of the impact of vitamin D and calcium deficiency on primary HPT (PHPT).
methodsWe performed an evidence-based review of articles published in the English language between January 1960 and June 2008.
resultsLevel IV evidence suggests widespread calcium and vitamin D deficiency in developing countries (issue 1). Limited level IV evidence suggests malnutrition as a primary cause of calcium and vitamin D deficiency (issue 2). Level IV evidence suggests that calcium and vitamin deficiencies cause secondary HPT and possibly PHPT as well (issues 3 and 4). A literature search revealed only six studies that correlated vitamin D levels with clinical, biochemical, and pathologic features of PHPT (issue 5). These studies provide level IV evidence suggesting that vitamin D deficiency causes some specific clinical features of PHPT as well as exacerbating other features of the disease.
conclusionsIn the developing countries, which have severe vitamin D and calcium deficient population, PHPT patients present with advanced disease and particularly severe bone symptoms. There is presently only level IV evidence of vitamin D status affecting the clinical severity of PHPT.
