A genetic insight into vitamin D binding protein and COVID-19.
Article in Medical hypotheses, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
It's since December 2019 that Corona virus disease (COVID-19) has emerged to be the global issue of concern. A "pandemic"; this is what WHO has declared about the COVID-19 outbreak on March 3rd, 2020. Vitamin D and its deficiency have recently been claimed to be one of the potential factors affecting COVID-19 risks and outcomes [1]. As Selberstein et al., has recently discussed the effect of vitamin D deficiency, and the role of vitamin D supplementation in COVID-19 patients [2], I'd believe that vitamin D binding protein (DBP) is maybe also involved. A closer look on DBP and its action on regulating the circulatory vitamin D levels, its polymorphisms and their impact on COVID-19 prevalence and mortality, will be briefly discussed.
