Vitamin D Status in Infants with Two Different Wheezing Phenotypes.
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo investigate vitamin D levels in patients with recurrent wheeze at early ages of childhood.
methodsIn the present cross-sectional study, serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D [25 (OH)D], levels which is known as an indicator of vitamin D adequacy, was examined in infants with three or more wheezing attacks.
resultsA total of 186 infants with recurrent wheezing were included in the study along with 118 healthy control peers. The recurrent wheezing study participants were classified into two groups according to Asthma Predictive Index (API) positivity and compared to control subjects regarding their serum vitamin D status. The API negative group had the lowest mean serum 25 (OH)D level (n = 121; 22.71 ± 10.76 ng/ml) followed by API positive group (n = 65; 24.08 ± 9.02 ng/ml) compared to healthy group (26.24 ± 11.88 ng/ml) (p < 0.05). In addition, higher vitamin D deficiency was observed in infants in API negative group (52.1 %; p < 0.01) and API positive group (38.5 %; p < 0.05) than control group (31.4 %).
conclusionsLow levels of 25 (OH)D were detected in infants with two different phenotypes of recurrent wheeze. Vitamin D deficiency may play a role in the pathogenesis of infants with recurrent wheezing.
