Effects of vitamin D on apoptosis of T-lymphocyte subsets in neonatal sepsis.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Effect of vitamin D on apoptosis of peripheral blood T-lymphocyte subsets in treatment of neonatal sepsis was investigated. A total of 150 neonatal patients with sepsis were randomly divided into vitamin D treatment group (observation group) and treatment control group, while 100 healthy newborns were selected as healthy control group. T-lymphocyte subsets were detected by flow cytometer, the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1 and calcitonin were determined by double-antibody immunoluminometric assay, and the effect of vitamin D on the above indicators in the treatment of sepsis was observed. Serum 25(OH)D (22.52±5.56 mg/l) in the treatment group was obviously increased compared with that in the treatment group (14.85±6.14 mg/l) (P<0.05), but the levels in the two groups were remarkably lower than that in the normal control group (26.38±6.56 mg/l), and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).
