Serum vitamin D and antinuclear antibody level in oral lichen planus patients: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Vitamin D is a secosteroid prohormone that regulates the immune system. Antinuclear antibody (ANA) is a protein antibody made against substances inside the nucleus of cells. Serum vitamin D and ANA levels progress to psoriasis and oral cancer. The present study aimed to measure the serum vitamin D and ANA levels in patients with oral lichen planus (OLP), an autoimmune and precancerous disease. Methods: We conducted this cross-sectional study on patients with OLP ( Results: The present study showed that 14 (28%) patients with OLP had vitamin D deficiency, and 18 (36%) had insufficient vitamin D. Further, 9 (18%) and 15 (30%) of the participants in the control group suffer from vitamin D deficiency and insufficient vitamin D level, respectively. Results showed a significant relationship between levels of serum vitamin D in both groups. The level of ANA positive in patients with OLP was 6 (12%). The results of the Conclusion: Researchers of the present study reported low serum vitamin D in many OLP patients. Due to the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in society, we need to perform comprehensive studies to evaluate the deficiency's effects on pathogenesis.
