Therapeutic Effects of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D on the Pathological Process of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: An In Vitro Evidence.
Article in Disease markers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The pathogenesis of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is extremely complicated which involving the multiple signaling pathways. The deficiency of vitamin D is an important risk factor for BPH, and exogenous vitamin D is effective for the treatment of BPH. In this study, we provided in vitro mechanical evidence of vitamin D as a treatment for BPH using BPH-1, WPMY-1, and PBMC cells. We found that 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH D) level is decreased in BPH and closely correlated with age, prostate volume, maximum flow, international prostate symptom score, and prostate-specific antigen of the BPH patients. We further revealed that 25-OH D ameliorated TGF-
