Is Hypovitaminosis D a Risk Factor for Heart Failure?
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundSeveral studies in recent years have shown the association between vitamin D levels and heart failure. Vitamin D deficiency is related to increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, with a higher risk of developing heart failure. In this systematic review, we aimed to assess recent studies that analyzed vitamin D deficiency and heart failure in adult and pediatric populations. (2) Methods: We conducted a systematic search for studies published in the following databases: PubMed and Scopus from January 2012 to October 2022. (3) Results: Most observational studies that were included found a significant association between hypovitaminosis D and heart failure. However, the beneficial role of vitamin D supplementation is still controversial due to the lack of randomized controlled trials. (4) Conclusions: Vitamin D may play an important role as a cardiovascular marker in heart failure patients. More well-designed studies are needed to investigate the relationship between vitamin D and heart failure and to determine if vitamin D supplementation could improve long-term outcomes.
