Vitamin D and Asthma: Association, Causality, or Intervention?
Article in Pediatric allergy, immunology, and pulmonology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Many observational studies have investigated the potential association between vitamin D and asthma. However, it is difficult to find a temporal causal relationship in cross-sectional or observational studies. This review presents recent clinical trials and the evidence of association between vitamin D and asthma in different patient populations and asthma status. Well-designed clinical trials are warranted in order to define the optimal level of vitamin D, as well as dosing and duration of vitamin D supplementation, in pediatric patients.
