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

Standardization of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) values is still a challenge. We propose standardization by correction of the measured 25OHD values using the linear regression bias from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 'total' target values reported by Vitamin D External Quality Assessment Scheme (DEQAS). Our approach could perhaps be a practical solution to the anomaly surrounding non-standardized 25OHD values.

introductionStandardization of 25OHD values is still a challenge. We propose standardization by correction of the measured 25OHD values using the linear regression equation derived from the analysis of relationship between total 25OHD values measured by the methodology used by the laboratory and the NIST total target values (TV) reported by the DEQAS for all 5 of the DEQAS samples in a given survey.

methodsWe applied our approach to standardize total 25OHD values of the HunMen cohort.

resultsAll 206 samples for the HunMen cohort were evaluated using the automated Liaison DiaSorin total 25OHD chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA). The timing of these measurements coincided with that of the October 2015 DEQAS survey using samples 481 to 485. Following standardization, the mean total 25OHD changed from 53 to 62 nmol/L and the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D (<75 nmol/L) decreased significantly from 84 to 72%.

conclusionA simple approach readily applicable at the routine diagnostic laboratory could perhaps be a practical solution to the anomaly surrounding non-standardized 25OHD values.
