Decrease in serum calcitriol (but not free 25-hydroxyvitamin D) concentration in hip fracture healing.

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
objectiveTo assess the decrease in serum calcitriol concentrations after hip fracture.
methodsSerum concentrations of calcitriol, 25(OH)D, parathyroid hormone (PTH), directly measured free 25(OH)D, and indices of bone formation were measured in elderly patients with hip fracture (HF) and patients with elective hip replacement (EHR) at admission and after 7 weeks.
resultsA total of 45 patients with HF and 17 patients with EHR completed this prospective study. Baseline serum calcitriol levels were ≤ 60 pmol/l in 26% of the HF patients. After 7 weeks, they significantly decreased (p < 0.001). In patients with EHR, serum calcitriol was within the reference range in all but one patient and did not change during the 7-week recovery phase. Seven weeks after HF, a significant positive relationship was observed between the change in calcitriol and serum 25(OH)D concentration (r = 0.385, p = 0.009) and free 25(OH)D (r = 0.296, p = 0.048), and a decrease in calcitriol during recovery was associated with a decrease in serum PTH (p = 0.038). Seven weeks after HF, changes in both serum PTH and serum 25(OH)D concentrations contributed to the prediction of changes in serum calcitriol (R
conclusionsUnlike patients with EHR, subjects with HF had low serum 25(OH)D and low free 25(OH)D concentrations at admission, while their serum 1,25D levels were relatively elevated. Decreases in circulating calcitriol levels in the 7 weeks following hip surgery were associated with a resolution of secondary hyperparathyroidism and low availability of free 25(OH)D.
