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
Multiple sclerosis is a common immune-mediated inflammatory and demyelinating disease. Lower cholecalciferol levels are an established environmental risk factor in multiple sclerosis. Although cholecalciferol supplementation in multiple sclerosis is widely accepted, optimal serum levels are still debated. Moreover, how cholecalciferol affects pathogenic disease mechanisms is still unclear. In the present study, we enrolled 65 relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis patients who were double-blindly divided into two groups with low and high cholecalciferol supplementation, respectively. In addition to clinical and environmental parameters, we obtained peripheral blood mononuclear cells to analyze DNA, RNA, and miRNA molecules. Importantly, we investigated miRNA-155-5p, a previously published pro-inflammatory miRNA in multiple sclerosis known to be correlated to cholecalciferol levels. Our results show a decrease in miR-155-5p expression after cholecalciferol supplementation in both dosage groups, consistent with previous observations. Subsequent genotyping, gene expression, and eQTL analyses reveal correlations between miR-155-5p and the
