Association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and antimüllerian hormone levels in a cohort of African-American women.

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
objectiveTo examine the association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and ovarian reserve as measured using antimüllerian hormone (AMH) levels.
designCross-sectional study.
settingDetroit, Michigan area. PATIENTS: Data were obtained from a prospective cohort of self-identified Black or African American women aged 23-35 years at the time of enrollment (N = 1,593), who had no prior diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome, were not currently pregnant, and were not missing AMH or 25(OH)D level measures.
interventionSerum 25(OH)D. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): The serum AMH level was the main outcome. Linear regression was used to examine the associations between categorical 25(OH)D levels (<12, 12-<20, 20-<30, and ≥30 ng/mL) and continuous natural log-transformed AMH levels. Associations between 25(OH)D and high (upper 10th percentile: >7.8 ng/mL) or low AMH (<0.7 ng/mL) levels were estimated with logistic regression. Models were adjusted for age, age-squared, body mass index (kg/m
resultsThe 25(OH)D levels were low; 70% of participants were below 20 ng/mL. In fully adjusted models, compared with 25(OH)D levels <12 ng/mL, those with 25(OH)D levels of 12-<20, 20-<30, and ≥30 ng/mL had an AMH level that was 7% (95% confidence interval [CI]: -4, 20), 7% {95% CI: -6, 22}, or 11% {95% CI: -7, 34} higher, respectively. Moreover, these groups had lower odds of having low AMH levels (odds ratio [95% CI]: 0.63 {0.40, 0.99}, 0.60 {0.34, 1.07}, and 0.76 {0.35, 1.65}, respectively), and the highest category of 25(OH)D levels had higher odds of having high AMH levels (odds ratio [95% CI]: 1.42 {0.74, 2.72}). Exclusion of participants with either irregular cycles or very high AMH (>25 ng/mL) levels did not alter the associations.
conclusionTaken together, these results indicate that higher levels of 25(OH)D are associated with slightly higher AMH levels, lower odds of low AMH levels, and higher odds of high AMH levels. This evidence is weak, however, because only a small percentage of participants had high 25(OH)D levels. Future studies should examine populations with a wide distribution of 25(OH)D levels (both high and low), with a clinical trial design, or with longitudinal measures of both 25(OH)D and AMH levels.
