Effects of vitamin D on bone density in healthy children: A systematic review.
Review in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Skeletal growth and bone health are very important in children. The effective role of vitamin D in bone mineral density has been observed in children and adolescents. This systematic review study evaluated the effects of vitamin D on bone density in healthy children with the help of valid databases and the website of clinical trials. The results of experimental, clinical, retrospective, prospective, double-blind, and randomized studies were used. Articles that appropriately covered the topic and had the proper content structure were selected for this review. Out of a total of 132 articles, finally, 13 articles were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria for further study, the results of which show the association between serum levels of vitamin D and bone mineral density and health. However, in some articles, the relationship between other influential variables such as age and nutrition on bone density in children was identified. In general, the current systematic review demonstrates the role of vitamin D on bone density in healthy children, so that in children studied, vitamin D is at different levels and complications related to bone density are observed in many children. It is recommended that more clinical and longitudinal studies be performed to further understand the role of vitamin D levels in bone health in children.
