Trial report in Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01736865 (Vitamin D for Established Type 2 Diabetes), which is not on this map. Cited by 30 papers, 8 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

BACKGROUND &

aimsWhether vitamin D affects lipid profile and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk is controversial. We evaluated the effect of oral daily vitamin D supplementation on lipid profile and CVD risk in patients with well-controlled type 2 diabetes.

methodsSecondary analysis in the vitamin D for established type 2 diabetes (DDM2) study, a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial. 127 patients (mean age 60 years) with stable (HbA1c ≤ 7.5%) diabetes managed with lifestyle only or lifestyle plus metformin were randomized to receive 4000 IU/day of vitamin D

resultsThe mean [±SEM] plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level was higher in the vitamin D vs. the placebo group (20.5 ± 1.18 vs. -1.6 ± 1.2 ng/mL respectively; p < 0.001). There was no statistically significant change in lipid profile, C-reactive protein or CVD risk. Among patients who were not on cholesterol medication (n = 32), vitamin D supplementation reduced TG compared to placebo at week 48 (-18.74 ± 8.91 vs. 9.69 ± 8.60 mg/dL respectively; p = 0.032).

conclusionOne year supplementation with vitamin D REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT01736865.
