Vitamin D esters are the major form of vitamin D produced by UV irradiation in mice.

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 primary source of vitamin D3 for humans is that produced in skin by ultraviolet irradiation. Ultraviolet (UV) B (UVB, 280-310 nm) light causes the isomerization of 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC) to pre-vitamin D3 that is thermally isomerized to vitamin D3. In addition to free vitamin D3, it has been previously reported that esterified vitamin D3 is also found in the skin of rats irradiated with UVB. We found that a large fraction of the vitamin D3 precursor, 7-dehydrocholesterol is in the esterified form. Following UVB irradiation, vitamin D3 esters represent the majority of tissue vitamin D3, comprising approximately 80% in mice. Examination of vitamin D3 ester transport from skin in DBP
