High Initial Dose of Monitored Vitamin D Supplementation in Preterm Infants (HIDVID Trial): Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Study.
Article in Nutrients, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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 deficiency can escalate prematurity bone disease in preterm infants and negatively influence their immature immunology system. Infants born at 24 + 0/7 weeks to 32 + 6/7 weeks of gestation will be considered for inclusion. Cord or vein blood samples will be obtained within 48 h after birth for 25-hydroxyvitamin D level measurements. Parathyroid hormone and interleukin-6 levels will be measured. Infants will be randomized to the monitored group (i.e., an initial dose of 1000 IU/day and possible modification) or the controlled group (i.e., 250 IU/day or 500 IU/day dose, depending on weight). Supplementation will be monitored up to a postconceptional age of 35 weeks. The primary endpoint is the percentage of infants with deficient or suboptimal 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels at 28 ± 2 days of age. 25-Hydroxyvitamin D levels will be measured at postconceptional age 35 ± 2 weeks. Secondary goals encompass assessing the occurrence of sepsis, osteopenia, hyperparathyroidism, and interleukin-6 concentration. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of monitored vitamin D supplementation in a group of preterm infants and ascertain if a high initial dosage of monitored vitamin D supplementation can decrease the occurrence of neonatal sepsis and metabolic bone disease.
