IMPACT OF VITAMIN D DEFICIENCY ON COGNITIVE FUNCTIONS IN TYPE 2 DIABETIC PATIENTS.
Article in Acta endocrinologica (Bucharest, Romania : 2005). 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
objectiveWe hypothesized that vitamin D-deficient diabetic patients might demonstrate cognitive deficits and therefore investigated this association in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM).
methodsThis study comprised 236 patients with type 2 DM (118 with vitamin D deficiency (less than 20 ng/mL) and 118 without vitamin D deficiency as the control group). All patients were outpatients in the endocrinology clinics of Baskent University, Turkey from 1 October 2013 to 31 January 2014 and, chosen in a randomized manner according to their application time. The serum vitamin D levels were measured and cognitive functions were evaluated using the Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE).
resultsThe mean age in the study and control group was 57.02±7.30 and 58.92±7.58 years, respectively (p=0.051). The male:female ratio in the study and control group was 1.00:1.46 and 1.00:2.11, respectively. The study group was further divided into three subgroups: patients with mild, moderate, and severe vitamin D deficiency. The study outcomes revealed no significant relationship between the vitamin D deficiency level and the total score or subscores of the MMSE (p<0.05).
conclusionsThese study results do not confirm the hypothesis that vitamin D deficiency unfavorably affects cognitive functions in patients with type 2 DM.
