Maternal Hypercalcemia Due to Failure of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin-D3 Catabolism in a Patient With CYP24A1 Mutations.
Article in The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 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
contextCalcium metabolism changes in pregnancy and lactation to meet fetal needs, with increases in 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25-(OH)2D] during pregnancy playing an important role. However, these changes rarely cause maternal hypercalcemia. When maternal hypercalcemia occurs, further investigation is essential, and disorders of 1,25-(OH)2D catabolism should be carefully considered in the differential diagnosis. CASE: A patient with a childhood history of recurrent renal stone disease and hypercalciuria presented with recurrent hypercalcemia and elevated 1,25-(OH)2D levels during pregnancy. Laboratory tests in the fourth pregnancy showed suppressed PTH, elevated 1,25-(OH)2D, and high-normal 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels, suggesting disordered vitamin D metabolism. Analysis revealed low 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and high 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels, suggesting loss of function of CYP24A1 (25-hydroxyvitamin-D3-24-hydroxylase). Gene sequencing confirmed that she was a compound heterozygote with the E143del and R396W mutations in CYP24A1.
conclusionsThis case broadens presentations of CYP24A1 mutations and hypercalcemia in pregnancy. Furthermore, it illustrates that patients with CYP24A1 mutations can maintain normal calcium levels during the steady state but can develop hypercalcemia when challenged, such as in pregnancy when 1,25-(OH)2D levels are physiologically elevated.
