Association of Glycosylated Hemoglobin Levels With Vitamin D Status.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine research, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundThe discovery of vitamin D is one of medicine's great achievements. Despite all the positive evidence emerging about the beneficial effect of vitamin D, we still find many are vitamin D deficient. The purposes of this study were to examine the association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, to test the hypothesis that lower 25(OH)D levels are associated with poorer glucose control in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients and to investigate the effect of vitamin D supplementation on HbA1c levels.
methodsThis was a prospective observational cohort study of all patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes (above 12 years) who attended the outpatient clinics of a tertiary center in Riyadh. HbA1c and vitamin D levels were recorded prior to supplementation and after 9 months of supplementation with vitamin D. All patients were divided into four groups according to their vitamin D level and an association between 25(OH)D and HbA1c was tested.
resultsResults showed that 73.1% of the patients had 25(OH)D levels < 50 nmol/L. We observed lowering of HbA1c after vitamin D supplementation (from mean HbA1c of 10.55 to 7.70). We found HbA1c to be inversely related to serum vitamin D levels (r = -0.14 (P < 0.0000002) before supplementation and -0.16 (P < 0.000001) after supplementation with vitamin D).
conclusionsAdvising patients with higher HbA1c to test their vitamin D level and correct any deficiency will result in better blood glucose control and benefit the patient's overall health.
