1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Updating evidence-based nutrient guidance is challenging. One set of recommendations for which a robust evidence base is essential is the DRIs. In the past 10 y, DRI values for 4 essential nutrients have been re-evaluated in 2 groups: vitamin D and calcium, and sodium and potassium. To support the work of the committees tasked with evaluating the available evidence, the federal agencies that sponsor the DRI reviews contracted with the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality to perform systematic reviews on predefined questions for these nutrient groups. Our aims were to tabulate the studies included in these systematic reviews and then, within the context of prespecified outcomes, summarize the totality of the available evidence and identify areas for consideration to maximize the value of the end products for future DRI committees. For the outcomes of interest, the available studies did not tend to report age data consistent with the current DRI categories. For some life stage categories, particularly pregnancy and lactation, there is a dearth of data. A wide range of study interventions were used, making it challenging to combine data to accurately derive or re-evaluate DRI values. There is also an under-representation of data on race/ethnicity and overweight/obesity, which is of concern, given the shifting demographic in the US and Canadian populations. Moving forward, it may be advantageous to develop a process to prospectively target research funding for studies designed to generate data that will most closely support re-evaluation of DRI values.
