Prevalence and clinical impact of vitamin D deficiency in critically ill Korean patients with traumatic injuries: a single-center, prospective, observational study.

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 investigated the prevalence and impact of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH) vitamin D) deficiency in critically ill Korean patients with traumatic injuries.
methodsThis prospective observational cohort study assessed the 25(OH) vitamin D status of consecutive trauma patients admitted to the trauma intensive care unit (TICU) of Kyungpook National University Hospital between January and December 2018. We analyzed the prevalence of 25(OH) vitamin D deficiency and its impact on clinical outcomes.
resultsThere were no significant differences in the duration of mechanical ventilation (MV), lengths of TICU and hospital stays, and rates of nosocomial infection and mortality between patients with 25(OH) vitamin D <20 ng/ml and those with 25(OH) vitamin D ≥20 ng/ml within 24 hours of TICU admission. The duration of MV and lengths of TICU and hospital stays were shorter and the rate of nosocomial infection was lower in patients with 25(OH) vitamin D level ≥20 ng/ml on day 7 of hospitalization. The duration of MV, lengths of TICU and hospital stays, and nosocomial infection rate were significantly lower in patients with increased concentrations compared with those with decreased concentrations on day 7 of hospitalization, but the mortality rate did not differ significantly.
conclusionsThe 25(OH) vitamin D level measured within 24 hours after TICU admission was unrelated to clinical outcomes in critically ill patients with traumatic injuries. However, patients with increased 25(OH) vitamin D level after 7 days of hospitalization had better clinical outcomes than those with decreased levels.
