Vitamin D in Graves Disease: Levels, Correlation with Laboratory and Clinical Parameters, and Genetics.
Article in European thyroid journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 31 papers, 5 of them syntheses 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
objectiveThe aim was to compare the vitamin D levels in patients with Graves disease (GD) with the general population and to correlate the vitamin D levels with laboratory and clinical parameters in GD. Moreover, we examined the genetic variation in genes involved in the vitamin D metabolism and their association with GD.
methodsThe levels of vitamin D were compared in 292 patients with newly diagnosed GD and 2,305 controls. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the vitamin D receptor (VDR), vitamin D binding protein (DBP), and 1-α-hydroxylase (
resultsPatients with GD had significantly lower vitamin D levels compared to controls (55.0 ± 23.2 vs. 87.2 ± 27.6 nmol/L,
conclusionsPatients with GD had lower vitamin D levels compared to the general population; however, the vitamin D levels did not affect the laboratory or clinical parameters of GD. SNPs in the VDR influenced the risk of GD through mechanisms other than reducing the vitamin D levels.
