Incidence rate of vitamin D deficiency and FGF23 levels in 12- to 13-year-old adolescents in Japan.
Article in Journal of bone and mineral metabolism, 2021. 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
introductionThe incidence rate of vitamin D deficiency is increasing throughout the world. We measured the incidence rate of vitamin D deficiency and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels in 12- to 13-year-old adolescents in Japan. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 492 adolescents (247 boys and 245 girls) from Japanese community enrolled in this study. 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) was measured with radioimmunoassay. In the subjects with low 25(OH)D levels (≦ 20 ng/ml), intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), albumin (Alb), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and FGF23 were measured.
results25(OH)D levels were significantly lower in girls (20.9 ± 3.1 ng/ml) than in boys (22.2 ± 3.3 ng/ml) (p < 0.0001). Fifty-five boys (22.3%) and 83 (33.9%) girls showed vitamin D deficiency (< 20 ng/ml). One-hundred eighty-six (75.3%) boys and 162 (66.1%) girls showed vitamin D insufficiency (≧ 20 ng/ml, < 30 ng/ml). In the subjects whose 25(OH)D levels were ≦ 20 ng/ml, the levels of iPTH, Ca, P, Alb, ALP and FGF23 were 22.3 ± 9.0 pg/ml, 9.5 ± 0.4 mg/dl, 4.7 ± 0.6 mg/dl, 4.6 ± 0.3 g/dl, 920.8 ± 339.3 U/l and 42.6 ± 26.0 pg/ml, respectively. There was a significant negative association between serum 25(OH)D levels and iPTH [r = - 0.290 (p < 0.0001)]. There was no significant association between serum 25(OH)D levels and FGF23.
conclusionWe show that 28% of Japanese 12- to 13-year-old early adolescents suffer from vitamin D deficiency. Findings from this study indicate that vitamin D deficiency requires close oversight in public health during adolescence to ensure proper bone health.
