Association between serum vitamin D and uric acid in the eastern Chinese population: a population-based cross-sectional study.
Observational study in BMC endocrine disorders, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundUric acid (UA) is the end product of purine metabolism, which is thought to be related to many human diseases, such as nephrolithiasis, gout, cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome. However, the relationship between serum UA (SUA) and 25(OH) D is still unclear in the eastern Chinese population.
methodsWe did a population-based observational investigation, which included 12,770 residents living in eastern China. Ultimately, data from 9220 subjects were analyzed. Serum 25(OH) D, SUA, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting insulin, HbA1c and other metabolic parameters were tested. Waist circumference (WC), weight and height were also measured. Questionnaires were collected from these subjects for information on smoking and drinking status.
resultsWe enrolled 9220 Chinese adults, including 3681 males (age 55.57 ± 13.23 years) and 5539 females (age 54.31 ± 12.83 years). The levels of SUA were 352.07 ± 79.25 nmol/L and 269.29 ± 64.68 nmol/L in males and females, respectively. The proportion of adults with hyperuricemia (HUA) was 12.26% in the total population. Levels of SUA were positively associated with 25(OH) D, and the incidence of HUA increased 9.4% for every 10 nmol/L increase in 25(OH) D (P < 0.001).
conclusionsSUA was positively associated with 25(OH) D in the eastern Chinese population. Higher levels of serum 25(OH) D may be a potential predictor of HUA.
