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
Higher 25-hydroxyvitamin D is associated with lower colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, with limited data from African Americans (AAs), who have greater risk for CRC and 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency. In a predominantly AA sample of CRC cases from the Southern Community Cohort Study (SCCS), we report associations between vitamin D biomarkers and tumor expression of proteins implicated in vitamin D's anti-tumorigenic pathways (e.g. proliferation and inflammation) and CRC prognosis. SCCS participants with incident CRC were identified via state cancer registries. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) were measured at enrollment. 'Free' 25-hydroxyvitamin D was calculated via standard equation. Cellular Ki67, p53, and COX-2 were measured from tumor samples and categorized using literature-defined cut-points related to survival. Generalized linear models were used to measure associations between vitamin D exposures, tumor biomarkers, and stage. In total, 104 cases (40-79 years) were analyzed. 25-hydroxyvitamin D was not associated with high Ki67 (odds ratio (OR) per 1-standard deviation (SD) increase [95% confidence interval] 1.35[0.86-2.11]), p53 (0.75[0.47-1.20]), or COX-2 expression (1.25[0.78-2.01]), or metastatic disease (1.04[0.59-1.81]). Mean biomarker expression was unrelated to 25-hydroxyvitamin D (p-trend ≥.09). Null associations were observed for VDBP and free 25-hydroxyvitamin D. In AAs (n = 70), higher VDBP was associated with lower odds of high Ki67 expression (0.53[0.28-0.98], p-trend =.04). In conclusion, we observed no associations between 25-hydroxyvitamin D and prognostic marker expression in CRC. An inverse association between VDBP and tumor Ki67 in AAs is consistent with reports showing relationships with reduced CRC mortality.
