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

Pulmonary fibrosis is a serious interstitial disease characterized by initial diffuse alveolar inflammation, fibroblast proliferation, ECM accumulation, and the destruction of normal pulmonary tissues, whose etiology remains unknown and therapeutic options remain limited. The prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency is increasing and has been linked to pulmonary fibrosis. In recent years, many studies focused on the mechanistic pathway of Vitamin D in the prevention of fibrosis. This review highlights the current evidence on the molecular mechanisms of Vitamin D in pulmonary fibrosis. We want to provide new clues to the clinical management of pulmonary fibrosis.
