Serum calcium and 25-hydroxyvitamin D in relation to longevity, cardiovascular disease and cancer: a Mendelian randomization 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
Associations of serum calcium (S-Ca) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (S-25(OH)D) concentrations with longevity, cardiovascular disease, and cancer are not clear. We conducted a Mendelian randomization study to examine the associations of S-Ca and S-25(OH)D with longevity and risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer. The primary genetic instruments for S-Ca and S-25(OH)D were obtained from genome-wide association meta-analyses that included 61,054 individuals for S-Ca and up to 79,366 individuals for S-25(OH)D. Genetic variants associated with S-Ca and S-25(OH)D in the UK Biobank were used as confirmatory instruments. We obtained summary-level data for associations of these instruments with individual survival later than the 90
