1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 is common in cystic fibrosis (CF), but there is no previous data on free 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) in CF or in relation to healthy individuals.

methodsWe assessed total serum 25(OH)D concentration by chemiluminescence and serum free 25(OH)D concentration by both direct measurement (ELISA) and calculation, using serum albumin and vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) levels in 80 subjects (28 healthy adults, 25 clinically stable adults and children with CF and 27 adults experiencing a CF exacerbation).

resultsSerum albumin and VDBP concentrations were lower in CF compared with healthy controls. Total serum 25(OH)D concentrations were positively correlated with both calculated and measured free 25(OH)D (P < 0.001 for both). Calculated and directly measured serum free 25(OH)D levels were positively correlated (P < 0.001).

conclusionsSerum levels of directly measured free 25(OH)D positively correlated with total 25(OH)D, suggesting that achieving sufficient total serum 25(OH)D may result in adequate free 25(OH)D levels in CF.
