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

Epidemiological investigations have suggested that serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level has significantly inverse associations with various neurological and neurodegenerative diseases. However, little is known about 25(OH)D level in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Thus, the aim of this study was to determine correlations of 25(OH)D level in CSF with serum total, bioavailable, and free 25(OH)D levels. This observational study enrolled a total of 117 subjects (58 patients with non-neurologic disease and 59 patients with neurologic disease) from 2017 to 2018. CSF and blood samples were collected in pairs. Total 25(OH)D levels in CSF and serum and vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) levels in serum were measured. We also performed GC genotyping for polymorphisms of rs4588 and rs7041 to calculate bioavailable and free 25(OH)D levels. CSF total 25(OH)D levels were compared with serum total, bioavailable, and free 25(OH)D levels. Mean total 25(OH)D concentrations in CSF and serum of all patients were 37.14 ± 7.71 and 25.72 ± 12.37 ng/mL, respectively. The mean total 25(OH)D concentration in CSF was generally 1.4-fold higher than that in the serum. Total 25(OH)D concentrations in CSF showed weakly positive but significant correlations with serum total, bioavailable, and free 25(OH)D concentrations (P = 0.022, P = 0.033, and P = 0.026, respectively). Serum total 25(OH)D concentration was also correlated with serum VDBP concentration (P = 0.017). However, total 25(OH)D levels in CSF of non-neurologic disease group and neurologic disease group were similar. Total 25(OH)D level in CSF has weakly positive but significant correlations with serum total, bioavailable, and free 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels in the Korean population. The distribution of CSF total 25(OH)D in Korean neurologic and non-neurologic disease patients was presented.
