Vitamin D Associations With Renal, Bone, and Cardiovascular Phenotypes: African American-Diabetes Heart Study.
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 6 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
contextVitamin D binding protein (DBP) is an important determinant of bioavailable vitamin D (BAVD) and may provide clues to racial variation in osteoporosis and atherosclerosis.
objectiveThe objective was to assess relationships between DBP, BAVD, 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), and 1,25 di-hydroxyvitamin D (1,25OH2D) with kidney, bone, adipose, and atherosclerosis phenotypes in African Americans with type 2 diabetes.
designCross-sectional (N = 545) and longitudinal (N = 288; mean 5.1 ± 0.9-year follow-up) relationships between vitamin D concentrations with renal phenotypes, vertebral bone mineral density, aorto-iliac, coronary artery, and carotid artery calcified plaque (CP), and adipose tissue volumes were studied.
settingAfrican American-Diabetes Heart Study. PATIENTS: Participants were 56.7% female with mean ± standard deviation (sd) age 55.6 ± 9.6 years, diabetes duration 10.3 ± 8.2 years, and eGFR 90.9 ± 22.1 ml/min/1.73 m(2).
interventionsNone. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Associations tested between vitamin D and the previously mentioned phenotypes adjusting for age, sex, African ancestry proportion, diabetes duration, statins, smoking, changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate, body mass index, hemoglobin A1c, and blood pressure.
results1,25OH2D was inversely associated with change in coronary artery CP (parameter estimate [β] -0.005, standard error [SE] 0.002; P = .037), with a trend for change in carotid artery CP (β -0.007, SE 0.004; P = .074). Further adjustment for renin-aldosterone-system blockade revealed inverse association between 1,25OH2D and change in albuminuria (β -0.004, SE 0.002; P = .037). DBP, BAVD, and 25OHD did not associate significantly with changes in albuminuria, CP, or bone mineral density. BAVD was inversely associated with visceral, subcutaneous, intermuscular, and pericardial adipose volumes.
conclusionsIn contrast to BAVD and 25OHD, only 1,25OH2D levels were significantly and inversely associated with changes in subclinical atherosclerosis and albuminuria in African Americans, suggesting potential beneficial effects.
