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

introductionHypertension or high blood pressure is one of the main reasons of fatality in the world. The role of vitamin D in developing hypertension has not been proved yet. Some studies have shown positive correlation between low serum vitamin D level and hypertension. Due to this fact, recognising hypertension risk factors such as potential impact of low serum vitamin D level seems to be required.

aimThis study was conducted to evaluate potential impact of serum vitamin D level on hypertension. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis case-control study had 188 subjects including 55 cases suffering from hypertension and 133 controls with normal blood pressure in Hamadan, Iran. After taking the medical history and physical examination, 5 cc of their blood was taken to measure their serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level through ELISA test. Data analysis was done by version 16.0 of SPSS software and used independent sample t-test and Chi-square test for related comparisons.

resultsMean and standard deviation of serum 25(OH)D level in patients suffering from hypertension was 13.10±9.7 ng/ml and in control group was 20.87±10.34 ng/ml. This variance was statistically significant (p<0.001). Mean serum 25(OH)D level in both case and control groups was measured after gender and age stratification. Mean serum 25(OH)D level in cases and controls was 13.12±11.4 ng/ml and 21.38±11.47 ng/ml in males (p=0.016) and 13.10±9.91 ng/ml and 19.19±10.55 ng/ml (p=0.004) in females, respectively. Mean serum 25(OH)D level in under 50-year-old was 10.82±8.73 ng/ml and 20.07±11.17 ng/ml in cases and controls respectively (p<0.001). In over 50-year-old, there was no significant relationship between mean serum 25(OH)D and blood pressure levels (p>0.05).

conclusionAccording to this study, reverse relationship between serum 25(OH)D and blood pressure levels was seen.
