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

Lower serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D is common in older adults and associated with several negative outcomes. However, previous studies have indicated that 25-hydroxyvitamin D is associated with risk of type 2 diabetes, but presented controversial results.Studies in PubMed and EMBASE were searched update to June 2017 to identify and quantify the potential dose-response association between low 25-hydroxyvitamin D and risk of type 2 diabetes in older adults.Nine eligible studies involving a total of 34,511 participants with 2863 incident cases were included in this meta-analysis. Our results showed statistically significant association between lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D and type 2 diabetes in older adults [odds ratio (OR) = 1.19, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.08-1.32, P = .001]. In addition, we obtained the best fit at an inflection point of decrease 10 ng/mL in piecewise regression analysis; the summary relative risk of type 2 diabetes in older adults for a decrease of 10 ng/mL 25-hydroxyvitamin D was 1.06 (95% CI: 1.02-1.13, P < .001). Furthermore, subgroups analysis indicated that lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D was associated with a significant increment risk of type 2 diabetes in older adults in female (OR = 1.21, 95% CI: 1.04-1.40, P = .014) but not in male (OR = 1.11, 95% CI: 0.75-1.63, P = .615). Subgroup meta-analyses in study design, duration of follow-up, number of participants, and number of cases showed consistent with the primary findings.Lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D is associated with type 2 diabetes in older adults risk increment.
