Vitamin D and thiol-disulfide homeostasis levels in postmenopausal women with overactive bladder syndrome.
Article in Journal of medical biochemistry, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
backgroundThis study aimed to find a relationship between vitamin D concentration and thiol-disulfide homeostasis in the pathophysiology of overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome in postmenopausal women.
methodsA total of 76 postmenopausal women, referred for routine controls, were recruited between January and March 2018 to participate in this study. Participants with an overactive bladder questionnaire (OAB-q) score of >11 (n = 34) were included in the OAB syndrome group, while those with a score of <5 (n = 42) were included in the control group. Serum total antioxidant capacity, ischemia-modified albumin, C-reactive protein, 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels, and thiol-disulfide homeostasis were measured.
resultsPatients with OAB syndrome had waist circumferences of 106 ± 11 cm, and their body mass indexes (BMIs) were 30.8 ± 4.8 kg/m2. The control groups' waist circumferences were 102 ± 11 cm and their BMIs were 28.9 ± 4.3 kg/m2 (p = 0.069 and p = 0.098, respectively). The level of vitamin D in the control group was 33.7 (IQR: 30.7) nmol/L and 27.0 (IQR: 27.5) nmol/L (p = 0.081) in the OAB syndrome group.
conclusionsWe were not able to demonstrate with certainty any significant relationships between serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels and thiol-disulfide homeostasis parameters and OAB syndrome.
