Vitamin D and endocrine disorders: routine laboratory diagnostic implications.
Article in EJIFCC, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The role of vitamin D in calcium-phosphorus metabolism regulation is the most highlighted, nonetheless there is enormous literature on the extra-skeletal effects of vitamin D, and lately new insight into the role of vitamin D in endocrine disease mechanisms has seen light of day. The present narrative review gives an overview of the proposed roles of vitamin D in the etiology of Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Grave's disease, Addison's disease and primary hyperthyroidism. The implications as pertaining to the routine laboratory practice are readily applicable to this patient group as well, and do not pose any additional challenge.
