Modulation of Interleukin-8 Production by Vitamin D Supplementation in Indonesian Patients with Diabetic Polyneuropathy: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
Article in Oman medical journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesWe sought to assess the modulation of interleukin-8 (IL-8) production by vitamin D supplementation in Indonesian patients with diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN).
methodsWe conducted a cohort prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial. This study was approved by the Local Ethical Committee and conducted from July 2018 to February 2019. We recruited 50 subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus attending Haji Adam Malik General Hospital Medan, and divided them into two groups. The groups were treated for 10 weeks, either with placebo or vitamin D (D
resultsThere was a significant difference between the mean vitamin 25(OH)D (
conclusionsHigher IL-8 levels were correlated with poorer amplitude of the sensory sural nerve and the NCV of motor tibial nerves. Lower vitamin 25(OH)D levels were correlated with poorer distal latencies, amplitudes, and NCVs. There was no significant correlation between vitamin 25(OH)D and IL-8 levels. Thus, no sufficient evidence that vitamin D supplementation modulates IL-8 in Indonesian patients with DPN. Vitamin D
